The Bullet That Missed by Richard Osman
Nov. 14th, 2022 10:09 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
Four unlikely friends.
A murder with no body.
And trouble knocking at their door …
It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.
Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club is concerned. A decade-old cold case leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers.
Then, a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill … or be killed.
As the cold case turns red hot, Elizabeth wrestles with her conscience (and a gun) while Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim chase down clues with help from old friends and new. But can the gang solve the mystery and save Elizabeth before the murderer strikes again?
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The third in Richard Osman’s bestselling THURSDAY MURDER CLUB SERIES is an absolute delight. Osman’s lightness of touch carries the plot forward with a lot of humour while Ron and Ibrahim are fleshed out a lot more here than in the previous books. At the same time, Stephen’s Alzheimer’s is sensitively shown and is slowly becoming more heart breaking while the hint of a new Coopers Chase resident in the next book offers a lot of potential.
