Stala se vražda a Čtvrteční klub amatérských detektivů se tak ocitne u prvního skutečného případu. Dovedete si představit, jak se čtyři osmdesátníci snaží vypátrat vraha?
Přišla jsem na to, že mám radši severské detektivky a morbidní vraždy a tato oddechovka mě do kolen, bohužel, nedostala. Chvíli zabralo, než jsem poznala všechny postavy, takže se začátek docela táhnul. Ačkoli mám britský humor ráda, tady jsem asi byla naladěná na jinou notu, protože mi to moc vtipné nepřišlo.
Poslední třetina byla nejlepší a celkový dojem vylepšila. Pokud si chcete přečíst takovou netradiční detektivku, mohli byste zkusit dát čtyřem amatérským detektivům šanci.

I know the author doesn't like this being called cosy, but it is. A countryside setting, a sense of kindness and justice to all the murder, and older folks given their due. A fun read.

The Thursday Murder Club meet every week to solve cold cases in their quiet, cozy retirement village. Until there is a murder right at their front door. They know they are the perfect group to solve this murder, even if it means messing with the police investigation in the mean time. A quick, fun, quirky cozy mystery that takes a unique approach by making the main characters septuagenarians. I enjoyed reading this and was satisfied with the resolution to the mystery. I don’t think it will be the most memorable mystery for me but it was still fun while I read it. I might put the next book in the series on hold from the library but am not rushing to get to it. I can see why everyone loved this book.
