Mrs Angela R Griffiths

Excellent readAlthough this is the second book it doesn’t disappoint。 A good storyline, well written。 When is the third book being released - I can’t wait。

Bogdan is my favourite。

Leanne

Exceptional writing。 So fantastically unique。

Marlene Janssen

The promise of his first novel, fulfilled。 Perhaps it was because I knew the characters well from Osman’s first novel, but this book felt as though I as meeting old friends for tea and a fascinating new tale。 A wonderful read!

An absolutely amazing read! Richard Osman is a genius and it reflects in his writing。 To create characters that stay with you long after the book is over, each more "badass" than the last one is no small feat。 One great book can be a fluke but when the sequel is another masterpiece you have to applaud the author。 Must must read。 An absolutely amazing read!

I didn't think it was possible that he could write a book better than his first one, but he has。 He 100% has。 And I gave that one 5 stars。 I wish I could give this on even more。 The pacing was perfect, the characters well developed, and it was funny, touching, and twisty。 I can't recommend it enough。 One tip - it's better if you read the first book first and this one second。 It gives you a bit of a better idea of everyone's backgrounds。 I didn't think it was possible that he could write a book better than his first one, but he has。 He 100% has。 And I gave that one 5 stars。 I wish I could give this on even more。 The pacing was perfect, the characters well developed, and it was funny, touching, and twisty。 I can't recommend it enough。 One tip - it's better if you read the first book first and this one second。 It gives you a bit of a better idea of everyone's backgrounds。 。。。more

I didn’t think it was possible but this one is even better than the original Thursday Murder Club。 You’ll fall even more in love with the characters and meet some new ones along the way too! The twists are great, there are moments that will put your heart strings, and best of all lots of lines that will make you laugh out loud! Definitely add this one to the top of your “to read” list!

Robin Beard

Another thoroughly entertaining saga with our favorite characters from the Thursday Murder Club。 Highly recommend!!

I loved the first of The Thursday Murder Club books, and was thrilled that a second was available so soon。 It does not disappoint--a perfect cozy mystery with our four septua/octagenarian friends, their pals in the local constabulary, the mysterious Polish builder (and who knows what else), and a few new baddies and Home Office spies。 One thing I really like is that Osman pulls off some laugh-out-loud moments from each character's perspective。 But he keeps the mystery and the potential danger fr I loved the first of The Thursday Murder Club books, and was thrilled that a second was available so soon。 It does not disappoint--a perfect cozy mystery with our four septua/octagenarian friends, their pals in the local constabulary, the mysterious Polish builder (and who knows what else), and a few new baddies and Home Office spies。 One thing I really like is that Osman pulls off some laugh-out-loud moments from each character's perspective。 But he keeps the mystery and the potential danger front and center, so you keep reading at a good clip。 Now, how long before another comes out? 。。。more

Such fun。 This second dance with Elizabeth and the Thursday Murder Club doesn’t disappoint。

Megan

Very sweet and the very definition of a cozy mystery。

April

Another great story! Such fun characters, had me cackling away at times, and a story with so many twist and turns at one point I didnt trust anyone。 Definitely pick this up and give it a read!

It’s a yes from me - great follow up to the first, can’t wait for the next

Rune

It was lovely to hear back in Coopers chase and chatch up with everyone。 I love how the story has progressed between books but not so much that the reader is lost or feels like they missed something。I adored getting to know more about Elizabeth and her past 。 Thar was brilliant。 All together a wonderful mystery adventure!

If you liked the first book then you will like this one as well。

Janet Collings

The big man has done it again! So much fun to spend time with Elizabeth and her gang again。

Melanie

This book kept me on the edge of my seat, made me laugh out loud, made me tear up slightly, and had all the good things!!! ♥️ Retirement home goals!!

Beverly Mccollum

My rating is actually a 4。5。 Loved this book-the second one in the series。 Same lovable senior citizens -same beautiful English setting and more murders and mayhem。 The dialogue is especially wonderful ; you really do feel as if you’re having tea and scones with dear friends。 I certainly hope there will be further novels。 Definitely recommend it!

Eveline Hecklinger

I really enjoyed the "Thursday Murder Club", but I loved this so much more。 From the first book on I have adored each and every character。 I couldn't pick a favorite, but if pressed hard it would be Bogdan。 The last time around I figured out the bad guy before the book ended, but this time I did not。 The narrator, Lesley Manville, did an outstanding job and I think I will be seeking out more books narrated by her。 If you like procedurals, very hip and smart not so senior seniors then this book w I really enjoyed the "Thursday Murder Club", but I loved this so much more。 From the first book on I have adored each and every character。 I couldn't pick a favorite, but if pressed hard it would be Bogdan。 The last time around I figured out the bad guy before the book ended, but this time I did not。 The narrator, Lesley Manville, did an outstanding job and I think I will be seeking out more books narrated by her。 If you like procedurals, very hip and smart not so senior seniors then this book will satisfy you to the core。 。。。more

My new favorite mystery series!

Karin

The first in the series was great, but this one was even better。 You get to know everybody a little better and, wow, what history they carry。Looking forward to #3, and to age in this way。

CadyCan

Enjoyed this easy read just as much as the first one。 Still plenty of twists & turns although the guilty party was probably a tad more predictable this time。 The characters are great fun。 Read it on kindle as hardback which is out now is pricey & the paperback is bazaarly only being released next year。 Pre-order available for the third book being released on kindle in Autumn 2022 but think I’ll just add it to my want to read list & come back to it at some point。

The man who died twice - Richard Osman R 77 of 123 - 2 10 21Brilliant。 Builds on the Thursday Murder club and answers lots of the questions you had about Elizabeth from that first book。 You benefit from reading them in order and its great to pick up with familiar and lovable characters。 Cracking one liners, cleverly crafted plot and some lovely feel good resolutions。 He is a very clever author。

Richard Osman is a popular TV personality in the UK, and has now released the second book in what appears to be a very promising series。 The Thursday Murder Club was established by four fascinating characters, all seniors, but determined to use their career skills and experience to help solve cold case murders。 They all live in the Cooper’s Chase retirement community and have formed this wonderful friendship where they value each other entirely as friends and part of the crime club。Elizabeth is Richard Osman is a popular TV personality in the UK, and has now released the second book in what appears to be a very promising series。 The Thursday Murder Club was established by four fascinating characters, all seniors, but determined to use their career skills and experience to help solve cold case murders。 They all live in the Cooper’s Chase retirement community and have formed this wonderful friendship where they value each other entirely as friends and part of the crime club。Elizabeth is a former secret agent with MI5, with crucial know-how, instinct, and access to police and British intelligence resources。 Joyce is a retired nurse, and she adds a very different perspective on situations and is the perfect person to deal with people and empathy that puts people at ease。 Ron is a former union man and a real go-getter with a solid and determined personality。 Ibrahim is a former psychiatrist with a unique and treasured ability to read people and their body language。 Ibrahim is mugged, and it leaves him frightened to leave his home, and he uses excuses why he can’t participate in outside activities。 The personal story of Ibrahim is quite touching and, unfortunately, a horrific reminder that assaults like this do happen to our seniors。 The support and care from his group of friends add that sensitive dimension to the story。 It also provides the reason local detectives Chris Hudson and Donna De Freitas return, and their friendship and relationships extend the exciting characters surrounding the Thursday Murder Club。 Another special friend of the club, is the calm and mysterious Bogdan, someone who always has the means to get something unusual done。 In The Man Who Died Twice , the case isn’t so cold, as they become embroiled in a real live one。 Elizabeth is contacted by a former colleague, ex-husband, and ladies’ man, Douglas, after stealing twenty million pounds worth of diamonds from the Mafia。 Douglas is being held in a safe house under the supervision of MI5 operatives Sue Reardon and Lance James。 The Mafia, a hitman, Lomax, and others also have their sights on getting hold of the diamonds。 The twists and surprises that await in this caper are hugely entertaining and intriguing。 The standout characteristic of these books is the clever wit and humour that rolls off every page。 The dialogue feels authentic from our elder characters, and the plot is developed to play perfectly between them and their reactions to events and other people。 Joyce and Elizabeth steal the show in this one and interact to give a mix of empathy and resourcefulness in their investigation while unquestionably loyal to each other。 The characters, humour, dialogue and compelling plots are going to ensure this series will be eagerly followed。 I highly recommend this book, and I want to thank Penguin UK, Viking and NetGalley for providing me with a free ARC in return for an honest review。 。。。more

The last paragraph will stick with me for a LONG time。 The man who died twice。 I cried and cried!

Just brilliant fun!!!! How I wish I could just give Richard Osman a good hug to say `thank you, for creating 2 books that have been the best thing about lock down。' I have recommended them to sooooo many folk and still don't know anyone who guessed the murderer in book 1 😂。 Glad to see Joyce is still holding her own。 Just brilliant fun!!!!
