About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
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?
'Moving, hilarious, brilliantly suspenseful' Jeffery Deaver
'A thing of joy' Kate Atkinson
'The tonic we all need' Shari Lapena

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 3,551
Steve Wheeler is enjoying retired life. He still does the odd bit of investigation work, but he prefers his familiar routines: the pub quiz, his favorite bench, his cat waiting for him at home. His days of adventure are over. Adrenaline is daughter-in-law Amy’s job now. Amy Wheeler thinks adrenaline is good for the soul. Working in private security, every day is dangerous. She’s currently on a remote island protecting mega-bestselling author Rosie D’Antonio, until a dead body and a bag of money mean trouble in paradise. So she sends an SOS to the only person she trusts . . .

Story4 out of 5 stars 757
Fiona, Sue, and Daisy, three retired ladies who volunteer at the local charity shop, Dogs Need Nice Homes, can’t believe their favorite customer is dead. Eighty-six-year-old Sarah Brown was found murdered in her hallway by her delivery man, a domino clutched in her hand—with a name scratched on it. When another person is found dead with a domino in their hand, and with the police making no progress, the ladies will need to help unmask a serial killer. At least they have Fiona’s scruffy-haired terrier cross to assist them.

Logen Ninefingers, infamous barbarian, has finally run out of luck. Caught in one feud too many, he's on the verge of becoming a dead barbarian - leaving nothing behind him but bad songs, dead friends, and a lot of happy enemies. Nobleman, dashing officer, and paragon of selfishness, Captain Jezal dan Luthar has nothing more dangerous in mind than fleecing his friends at cards and dreaming of glory in the fencing circle. But war is brewing, and on the battlefields of the frozen North they fight by altogether bloodier rules.

Wow! You simply HAVE to listen!
Not exactly a sequel to ‘Thursday Murder Club’ but more a continuation of characters. The writing is absolutely sublime, and when you combine this with Lesley Manville’s narration you have perfection. Richard Osman writes for his characters with true depth of feeling so that they really have gravitas within the story threads. Lesley Manville gives life to them with her voice, and her expression of the characters fits hand in glove with the author. This is a pairing made in Audiobook heaven!!!
The plot line has many twists and turns and I love the unexpected and clandestine antics of a group of lovable pensioners. Bring on the next book please!!!!!!

A worthy sequel.
Such a pleasure to get reacquainted with the members of the Thursday Murder Club and inhabitants of Cooper’s Chase. Whilst the plot may be highly implausible it’s also hugely entertaining and the characters are so well written and fleshed out that it just about escapes farce. In any case, it doesn’t matter, it’s all marvellous fun and the whole thing is so skilfully narrated by Lesley Manville that the dry wit and touches of genuine human connection in the writing shine through. It’s lovely.
I have already pre-ordered book 3

Loved it
Another fantastic gem of a book, with the wonderful narration by Lesley Manville. She certainly made all the characters come alive. This book was even better than the Thursday Murder Club, which was also fabulous . What a special treat hearing the chat between Lesley Manville and Richard Osman at the end.
Can’t wait for the 3rd book.

Enid Blyton for adults
I love a good mystery, especially when solved by a charming group of characters I can really invest in. Beautifully written, masterfully narrated, completely entertaining and I can't wait for the next one!

All Round Fabulous
I simply adored this book. The quirky, very human characters were totally 3 dimensional and hugely believable, and most of all, so much fun! The narration is unparalleled.
I wish I could rate it higher.

Love the characters and love, love, love Joyce!!!
So good. I’ve listened to the first 2 books and just want to listen to the rest right away. The characters are brilliant, every single one of them, but Joyce is just a riot.

Una nueva aventura encantadora
Es un placer reencontrarnos con los personajes de Thursday Murder Club en esye nuevo misterio. Nuevamente los personajes cobran vida gracias a la voz de Lesley Manville mientras se va develando
la historia. Tanto la trama, la caracterización de los personajes, las descripciones y los toques de humor hacen de este libro una gran compañía.
