Reading this book is like
visiting a group of old friends. I’d had a pretty busy couple of weeks and
loved jumping back into this story world.
Each of the main characters has a
specialty, almost a superpower, that helps them solve the mystery. At its base,
this book is a friendship story with a mystery as icing on the cake.
A new mystery is afoot in the third book in the Thursday Murder Club series from record-breaking, bestselling author Richard Osman.
It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.
Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club are concerned. A decade-old cold case leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers.
Then a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill. . . or be killed.
As the cold case turns white hot, Elizabeth wrestles with her conscience…
I love reading and writing books about friendships. The one featured in
this book is unique: between a pair of terminally-ill patients, one a teen, one
an octogenarian.
Full of humor and excellent character development, it’s a
thoughtful, beautiful story about making your own family, handling life changes
with grace, and the knowledge that it's never too late for true love.

Horowitz knows how to write a mystery. The fun twist he includes in these
books is that he’s the sidekick in each mystery.
This is a fast-paced read with
interesting characters and lots of Agatha Christie vibes. The author himself is
the lead suspect in the murder. Always an engaging read from Horowitz.
