The Man Who Died Twice: A Thursday Murder Club Mystery [Large Print]

By Richard Osman

Book Overview

The second gripping novel in the New York Times bestselling Thursday Murder Club series, the first of which Kate Atkinson called A little beacon of pleasure in the midst of the gloom. . . SUCH FUN!

Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim--the Thursday Murder Club--are still riding high off their recent real-life murder case and are looking forward to a bit of peace and quiet at Cooper's Chase, their posh retirement village.

But they are out of luck.

An unexpected visitor--an old pal of Elizabeth's (or perhaps more than just a pal?)--arrives, desperate for her help. He has been accused of stealing diamonds worth millions from the wrong men and he's seriously on the lam.

Then, as night follows day, the first body is found. But not the last. Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim are up against a ruthless murderer who wouldn't bat an eyelid at knocking off four septuagenarians. Can our four friends catch the killer before the killer catches them? And if they find the diamonds, too? Well, wouldn't that be a bonus? You should never put anything beyond the Thursday Murder Club.

Richard Osman is back with everyone's favorite mystery-solving quartet, and the second installment of The Thursday Murder Club series is just as clever and warm as the first--an unputdownable, laugh-out-loud pleasure of a read.

Customer Reviews

I've read three of these books

I really enjoyed the movie on the first book, so I read the first book. Now the second book, in my opinion is better than the first. (Even though I can't get the casting out of my head. Helen Mirren has really become Elizabeth.) Joyce's antidotes are adorable. I recommend you read this book. It adds details and grows the characters from the first book, while also being a very entertaining murder mystery. My only complaint is the logic with the mirror clue. Seriously, the author needs to make sure these clues actually make sense in real life. Mirrors don't just read backwards. If you get this book, you'll be annoyed by it too. Enjoyable read otherwise!
