Oh, how I do wish to be a member of the Thursday Murder Club! Just like the first book, The Man Who Died Twice, was an adventurous and humorous read. The Thursday Murder Club takes you through so many twists and turns, so much so, it makes The Man Who Died Twice unputdownable.

This book introduced more fascinating characters, as well as an introduction to Ron's grandson Kendrick, who helped out the gang immensely. We also found out about more of Elizabeth's past, which was quite the excitement, and the main reason they got involved in the case in this book. After reading The Man Who Died Twice, I would like to add another name to my list of favourite characters, which so far consists of Ron and Ibrahim, and that is Bogdan. Bogdan has settled in nicely with helping his friends at Cooper's Chase; I hope in the next book we get to know Bogdan even more.

All in all, The Man Who Died Twice is a joyous read that everyone young and old can enjoy.
