THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE RECORD-BREAKING, MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING THURSDAY MURDER CLUB SERIES.

It's the following Thursday.

Elizabeth has received a letter from an old colleague, a man with whom she has a long history. He's made a big mistake, and he needs her help. His story involves stolen diamonds, a violent mobster, and a very real threat to his life.

As bodies start piling up, Elizabeth enlists Joyce, Ibrahim and Ron in the hunt for a ruthless murderer. And if they find the diamonds too? Well, wouldn't that be a bonus?

But this time they are up against an enemy who wouldn't bat an eyelid at knocking off four septuagenarians.

Can the Thursday Murder Club find the killer (and the diamonds) before the killer finds them?

I enjoyed the first book, but i LOVED this one. Maybe because we’ve already established the main characters and the setting or because the story itself is somehow more enthralling. I dont know really, i just felt it had so much more depth to it. Fantastic book!

Even better than the first

Great story, but the Best bit is Lesley Manville’s narration. Masterful. It’s clear who’s talking, but no stupid accents.

Best narrator ever

I enjoyed the first Thursday Murder Club but didn’t think it was as great as everyone else seemed to think!
This second instalment, though, was excellent and in my humble opinion was much better than the first one.
Poignant, funny, sad, mysterious and very well written!
Definitely looking forward to the third one now!

Better than the first one!

Loved the second book in the series following Ron, Ibrahim, Elizabeth and Joyce. The characters are wonderful and the plot is gripping. Very heartwarming book with a strong feeling of modern Britain. Fantastically read by Lesley Manville.
