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?

A new mystery is afoot in the third book in the Thursday Murder Club series from record-breaking, bestselling author Richard Osman.
----------
It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.
Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club are 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 white 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?

Nach dem Weltbestseller Der Donnerstagsmordclub der zweite Fall für das scharfsinnigste Seniorenquartett der Krimigeschichte
Da hat er sich in etwas reingeritten, der gute Marcus Carmichael. Und jetzt soll Elizabeth ihm da wieder raushelfen. Dabei sollte ihr ehemaliger Geheimdienst-Kollege doch eigentlich wissen, von wem man besser keine Diamanten mitgehen lässt, wenn man sich gerade auf einem Einsatz für den MI5 befindet. Dazu gehört ganz bestimmt: die New Yorker Mafia. Ist die erst einmal im Spiel, geht es ziemlich sicher bald jemandem an den Kragen.
Doch auch Profimörder können Fehler machen, etwa ihrem Handwerk in der Seniorenresidenz Coopers Chase nachzugehen. Denn wer hier mordet, dem ist der Donnerstagsmordclub auf den Fersen, und der macht, schneller als ihm lieb sein kann, aus dem Jäger den Gejagten. Für die vier rüstigen Senioren heißt es: Endlich ist wieder Donnerstag!
»Eine triumphale Rückkehr des Donnerstagsmordclubs.« Wall Street Journal
»Osman hat es nicht nur wieder getan, er hat es sogar noch besser gemacht.« Philippa Perry

“So schlau und lustig. Leider ziemlich gut.” Ian Rankin
"Eine warmherzige, weise und witzige Warnung davor, dass man die Älteren nie unterschätzen darf.“ Val McDermid
Man möchte meinen, so eine luxuriöse Seniorenresidenz in der idyllischen Grafschaft Kent sei ein friedlicher Ort. Das dachte auch die fast achtzigjährige Joyce, als sie in Coopers Chase einzog. Bis sie Elizabeth, Ron und Ibrahim kennenlernt oder, anders gesagt, eine ehemalige Geheimagentin, einen ehemaligen Gewerkschaftsführer und einen ehemaligen Psychiater. Sie wird Teil ihres Clubs, der sich immer donnerstags im Puzzlezimmer trifft, um ungelöste Kriminalfälle aufzuklären. Als dann direkt vor ihrer Haustür ein Mord verübt wird, ist der Ermittlungseifer der vier Senioren natürlich geweckt, und selbst der Chefinspektor der lokalen Polizeidienststelle kann nur über ihren Scharfsinn staunen.

Now, look around the room. Is anyone there the kind of person who’ll say ‘I just don’t understand this’, when faced with something that’s not just perfectly easy to understand, but is ... well, fun?
Ask them to leave.
Have they gone? Good.
