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.

He Only Died Twice

In 1957, I witnessed a trial in Mongu, Zambia (then Northern Rhodesia), in which there was great argument about whether a death had been caused by witchcraft or by a very minor wound from an inefficient firearm,” says author Chris Elgood. He Only Died Twice was inspired by this real-life incident. When the British government wants someone dead who is beyond the normal reach of the law, an arrangement is reached with an African woman to carry out the deed. Nshila Ileloka holds the highest degrees from universities in England, but this capable assassin also knows witchcraft. Born in a remote African village, Nshila was befriended by the local witch doctor who taught her his particular skills. She is moral and fastidious, making sure the targets to be removed are sufficiently villainous. Nshila is contacted independently by two British government agencies that never speak to each other. Both name a man they want killed. Her research reveals her target is really one person operating under two different names and conducting two separate criminal activities. To satisfy her clients and collect two fees, she must kill one person, but appear to produce two bodies.
