Richard Osman's "The Man Who Died Twice" is a five-star triumph that continues to captivate readers with its wit and charm. In this sequel to "The Thursday Murder Club," the beloved retirees from Coopers Chase retirement village return for another delightful mystery adventure.

Osman's storytelling prowess shines once again as he weaves a clever and engaging narrative filled with unexpected twists and humor. The characters, led by the unforgettable Thursday Murder Club members, are as endearing as ever, proving that age is no obstacle to solving crimes or enjoying life to the fullest.

The plot takes us on an exciting journey, and Osman expertly balances suspense with humor, creating a perfect blend of entertainment. While the story maintains a brisk pace, it also delves into themes of friendship, aging, and the enduring quest for purpose in later life, adding depth to the narrative.

In "The Man Who Died Twice," Osman has crafted another masterpiece that deserves every one of its five stars. It's a delightful and witty mystery that will leave readers eagerly anticipating the next adventure of the Thursday Murder Club. If you're a fan of Osman's previous work or simply enjoy a good mystery filled with heart and humor, this book is an absolute must-read.
