The Thursday Murder Club

Set in a peaceful retirement village in the English countryside—where four unlikely friends meet weekly to solve cold cases over tea and biscuits.

The club includes Elizabeth, a former intelligence agent; Joyce, a sweet but sharp former nurse; Ron, a retired trade union leader; and Ibrahim, a meticulous ex-psychiatrist. What begins as a hobby takes a thrilling turn when a local developer is found murdered.

Using their unique skills, life experience, and a touch of mischief, the Thursday Murder Club begins to outsmart the police—and the killer—while uncovering secrets about their quiet community that no one expected.

Blending humor, heart, and whodunit intrigue, Richard Osman’s debut novel is a celebration of friendship, aging, and the fact that it’s never too late to make a difference… or solve a murder.
