Book Review: The Man Who Died Twice (The Thursday Murder Club #2) by Richard Osman

Hi Cara,

Today I am reviewing The Man Who Died Twice and visiting my favourite OAP. 

Richard Osman The Man Who died Twice comes out 16th September 2021. 

 

Synopsis

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?

(Synopsis from Goodreads.com) 

Opinion

The Man Who Died Twice is another great story. 

In The Man Who Died Twice delves more into Elizabeth life, as someone from her past comes back into her life. Which added a lot of drama to The Thursday Murder Club life. I really enjoyed learning more about Elizabeth and seeing her spycraft at work.

Joyce is still one of my favourite characters, as she has this ability to just go with the flow.  She is also more confident, with going on her own and figuring things out on her own. She also makes me laugh. I would also like to try her cooking/baking. 

There is another plot element regarding Ibrahim, al;l I will say is that the little d**k that hurt involved got what he deserved. Also, a great reminder not to mess with any member of The Thursday Murder Club. 

One of my favourite aspects is that they all become true friends even Donna and Chris have bonded with the group. I was also glad to see Bogdan is still around and helping out the gang especial Elizabeth. 

Overall I enjoyed the mystery, humour and friendship in The Man Who Died Twice. 

My rating for The Man Who Died Twice is 5 out of 5.
