Grabbing me in the same fashion as the first, I made my way slower through the first half of the book but by the end, I couldn't put it down until I had reached that final page. Witty, clever and full of character, the Thursday Murder Club strikes again.

I really enjoy this series, it's funny, poignant and the murder mystery has me guessing until the end. The stand-out part of this book, that stops it from being another cosy Christie-esque mystery, is the heart - you really connect to the 4 residents of Coopers Chase retirement village. In this story, you learn a little more about Elizabeth's past but my favourite part was understanding Ibrahim more. Plus, some bad guys got what was coming to them!
