Summary

It is an ordinary Thursday, and things should finally be returning to normal。

Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club are concerned。 A local news legend is on the hunt for a sensational headline, and soon the gang are hot on the trail of two murders, ten years apart。

To make matters worse, a new nemesis pays Elizabeth a visit, presenting her with a deadly mission: kill or be killed。。。

While Elizabeth grapples with her conscience (and a gun), the gang and their unlikely new friends (including TV stars, money launderers and ex-KGB colonels) unravel a new mystery。 But can they catch the culprit and save Elizabeth before the murderer strikes again?

Everything you would hope for out of a new Thursday Murder Club! The gang is back at it, solving a cold case that’s come back to life and this time with the help of some new friends。 I love how all the characters continue to develop and the introduction of Alan is a true joy。 This book also really gave Ibrahim a chance to shine in a professional capacity while Chris and Donna seemed to step back a little bit more。 Highly recommend for a funny read that will still work your mind。 Thanks to NetGal Everything you would hope for out of a new Thursday Murder Club!

Not my favorite of the 3, but is there a bad thursday murder club? Not in my book!

The Thursday Murder club strikes again。 They are out to solve a cold case, the death of a young reporter whose body was never found。 This addition to the series is just as good as, if not better than the last two。 We meet some interesting and delightful new characters。 The plot is twisty and clever。 Have fun reading this one,

I loved learning more about the characters we’ve come to love。 There are some new dynamics that keep things really exciting…and put a big ‘ol smile on my face。 There are also new characters who are highly interesting。 And let’s not forget about the crime(s) and case(s) that the Thursday Murder Club is determined to solve。 It’s highly intriguing, and I think fans of the series will really be impressed with the direction it’s going。 There are plenty of laughs to be had, and I am already eagerly awaiting the next installment。 If you haven’t started this series yet, DO IT NOW!

ARC provided by Penguin Group via NetGalley for an honest review。This was such a fun and fast read and I think it is my favorite so far。 I just love the camaraderie and the friendships and yes, even romances in this series of books。 Even though this book clocks in at 400 pages I could have easily read it in one day。 When I did have to put it down, I was constantly thinking about it and itching to get back to it。All of the gang is back and having an interesting time finding out who murdered Betha ARC provided by Penguin Group via NetGalley for an honest review。This was such a fun and fast read and I think it is my favorite so far。 I just love the camaraderie and the friendships and yes, even romances in this series of books。 Even though this book clocks in at 400 pages I could have easily read it in one day。 When I did have to put it down, I was constantly thinking about it and itching to get back to it。All of the gang is back and having an interesting time finding out who murdered Bethany Waites。 Everyone had a role to play, even Stephen had a time to shine, and there are some interesting additions to the group that will hopefully stick around。 Both Ron and Donna have new love interests and their perspectives on love and dating were very humorous and in Ron’s case endearing。 Elizabeth and Joyce spend lots of time together getting themselves into trouble and foiling the villain’s plans。 I did feel a bit sorry for Ibrahim in this one, as he seemed to be the odd man out, but he does have a very important part to play in this story。Of all the new characters that join the group in this story, I think I liked Viktor Illyich the most。 He is an old spy friend/advisory/lover of Elizabeth, and I just thought he was great and fit in with the group so well。 I certainly hope he will stick around and be in future books。The plot was very compelling and full of the twists and turns that I have come to expect in this series。 I must say that I thought I had the whole thing figured out about half way through, but I was way off and didn’t even consider the person who ended up being the mastermind behind the whole mystery。 It is also a fast moving story and I loved that the chapters were short。 Each chapter was told from one character’s perspective which made the whole story easier to follow。 There were some cliffhanger chapters that were then delayed one or two chapters as we saw other parts of the story, which was a bit frustrating, but well done on the whole。If you enjoyed the first two books in this series, you will definitely want to pick this one up。 It has a delightful set of characters that will keep you smiling at their antics as they try to solve both old and new murders and crimes。https://elnadesbookchat。com 。。。more

Third installment in the Thursday Murder Club。 In this series, it is helpful to have read the first two books; the books help establish the members and what they did in real life, if any of it is to be believed, of the Thursday Murder Club。The gang is back again in this installment, Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim。 While watching the news one evening, they discuss whatever happened to the news reporter who used to be on, the one whose murder was never solved and no body was ever found。 Drawin Third installment in the Thursday Murder Club。 In this series, it is helpful to have read the first two books; the books help establish the members and what they did in real life, if any of it is to be believed, of the Thursday Murder Club。The gang is back again in this installment, Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim。 While watching the news one evening, they discuss whatever happened to the news reporter who used to be on, the one whose murder was never solved and no body was ever found。 Drawing on their large number of contacts, they find people to help them solve the murder。 We have a head of the Leningrad KGB, a money launderer or cryptocurrency, a Polish construction worker, TV personalities and the list goes on。 Elizabeth, formerly employed by MI5, does get captured in this book。 Is she losing her touch? More murders occur, more people become involved and the members of the club - all in their 80s - appear to be in their element。 Will they get their killer before he/she gets to them? And what adventures might the next installment hold?I received an e-ARC from Penguin Group Viking/Pamela Dorman Books and NetGalley, in exchange for a review。 。。。more

What a delightful trip back to Coopers Chase。 The Thursday Murder Club has picked a locally interesting cold case to investigate and the path gets twisty。 I felt like this one was perhaps a bit more convoluted than the previous two installments in the series, but that's not to say I didn't enjoy every minute of it。 I think that this particular mystery had less meat than the others or perhaps introduced too many new characters。 I never warmed up to Pauline, though I immensely like Henrik and Vict What a delightful trip back to Coopers Chase。 The Thursday Murder Club has picked a locally interesting cold case to investigate and the path gets twisty。 I felt like this one was perhaps a bit more convoluted than the previous two installments in the series, but that's not to say I didn't enjoy every minute of it。 I think that this particular mystery had less meat than the others or perhaps introduced too many new characters。 I never warmed up to Pauline, though I immensely like Henrik and Victor。But the heart of this series is the member of the club。 I especially love the chapters from Ibrahim's, Bogdan's and Elizabeth's points of view especially。 I know Bogdan is not technically a member, but who are we kidding? He's a member。 I am always delighted to spend time with the gang and can't wait to see what their fourth case will involve, if ever Mr。 Osman continues the series。 。。。more

Thank you Netgalley for the free ARC provided in exchange for a unbiased review。Best of the series so far。 The group stumble into a new mystery as they recover from their previous exploits, which also adds drama and more murder into the mix。 Elizabeth is blackmailed, Ibrahim picks up someone to counsel, Ron and the real detectives develop romances, and Judith continues to surprise everyone with her observations。 Funny with good mysteries。

The two plot threads are artfully intertwined。 The cast of characters expands with a former KGB operative liking Cooper's Chase so much he wants to move in。 Ron and the makeup artist who preps him for his interview find they like one another a lot and the romance meter among other characters escalates as well。Thanks to NetGalley and Penguin Random House for the opportunity to share in this exciting, funny and touching adventure of the TMC。 。。。more
