Four Unlikely Friends. One Retirement Community. Countless Secrets.
Meet the most charming group of amateur detectives in contemporary mystery with Richard Osman's #1 bestselling debut. The members of the Thursday Murder Club prove that retirement is just the beginning of adventure—and the perfect time to solve a real murder.
In the peaceful Coopers Chase retirement village, Elizabeth, Joyce, Ibrahim, and Ron meet every Thursday in the Jigsaw Room to discuss unsolved cold cases. But when a local property developer is found murdered with a mysterious photograph left beside the body, the Thursday Murder Club suddenly finds themselves in the middle of their first live investigation. As bodies begin to pile up, these four septuagenarians must use their unique skills—from Elizabeth's mysterious past connections to Joyce's keen observations to Ibrahim's psychiatric insights to Ron's street smarts—to catch the killer before it's too late.
