THE THIRD NOVEL IN THE RECORD-BREAKING, MILLION-COPY BESTSELLING THURSDAY MURDER CLUB SERIES.

This audiobook in The Thursday Murder Club series is read by a new narrator, Fiona Shaw.

Featuring an exclusive conversation between Richard Osman and award-winning presenter Steph McGovern at the end of the audiobook.

It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.

Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club is 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?

'Full of Osman's trademark charm, insight and intelligence' Lee Child
'Tender, hopeful and funny' Marian Keyes
'I adored this thrilling adventure. His best yet!' Claire Douglas
'Infectious, charming and full of heart' Gillian McAllister

Not only well written but a great choice of Narrators, well done Fiona Shaw and Lesley Manville (Thursday murder club) for bringing a great book to life.

Brilliant!

Personally, I struggled to listen to the narrator till the end.
Where is the lovely, lively, luminous Joyce? Her humor, her wittiness, clearly a big part of what makes the book so great disappeared. The clever fun everyday life observations that she writes in her diary are swallowed in a flat, off, whispery reading. At the beginning of the book, this whispery voice is there for half of the characters (it gets better towards the end). Bogdan is gone too. His accent is inconsistent and the tone of his voice makes him a different person all together. I do like Fiona Shaw as an actress, but really.. I can’t believe no one told her she was not in the right direction. You get it: the reading was not to my taste.

Good book, but…

As usual we meet again our incredible characters of Cooper's chase. And they drive us into their inquiries! Welcome to Viktor, Pauline and Henrik, will they stay on next episode?

Fun and entertaining

Impossible à écouter! Je viens de terminer les 2 premiers lus par Lesley Manville et là quelle surprise ce n'est plus elle! Vraiment ridicule, Penguin aurait mieux fait d'attendre la disponibilité de Lesley plutôt que de changer la narratrice en cours de route. Livre retourné.

Narratrice changée...
