The best one yet! Richard Osman's writing and plot mechanics get better with each book. And the Thursday Murder Club gang becomes more precious and more like a group of old friends you get to be part of for a while with each read. I know I'll find myself returning again and again to get a cup of tea from Joyce and watch the gang solve murders as well as find that love and friendship win out at the end of the day.
Moderate: Gun violence and Murder
One of the side characters is experiencing Alzheimer's, which might be tough or emotional for readers with personal experience with that disease.
