The second instalment in The Thursday Murder Club introduces several new characters, especially significantly adding spies to the mix. A lot of twists and turns as we get to know them all, how they connect to each other and to our central four retirees, and see how the different plot threads approach and separate.

I really appreciated the way the relationships between the characters continued to develop. 

And I found the plot about the spies and diamonds fascinating!

But my favourite part was the denouement at the end, the tying up of loose threads and answering of last questions I had.
