In a peaceful retirement village, four unlikely friends meet up once a week to investigate unsolved killings.
But when a local property developer shows up dead, ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ find themselves in the middle of their first live case.
The four friends, Elizabeth, Joyce, Ibrahim and Ron, might be pushing eighty but they still have a few tricks up their sleeves. Can our unorthodox but brilliant gang catch the killer before it’s too late?

I received a copy of this book from Penguin Books UK-Viking via NetGalley in return for an honest review.
My Thoughts…
This is a fun but insightful character-driven cosy mystery.
Wonderfully eccentric characters, all have illustrious pasts, investigative and observational skills and a desire for justice. The twisty mystery has numerous suspects and misinformation holding the readers’ interest. Whilst aspects of this story seem unlikely that doesn’t deter from the well-crafted plot and the authentic characterisation that defines it.
There’s recognisable English humour blended with emotion making makes the characters easy to empathise and relatable. The vivid sensory imagery makes the characters and setting come to life.

I didn’t love this book overall but I did love the characters. I listened to the audio version and the narration was excellent. There were so many moments that had be laughing out loud!

I think this type of cosy mystery is perfect as an audiobook. I enjoyed reading it, the characters and dialogue especially. It would make a good TV series?

Have you read the Marlow Murder Club By Robert Thorogood who wrote Death in Paradise on BBC? That was good again with three female detectives of various ages.
