Description
The Last Devil to Die by Richard Osman is the fourth novel in The Thursday Murder Club series, continuing the adventures of the unlikely sleuths from the Coopers Chase retirement community. When an old friend who worked in the antiques trade is murdered, the members of the Thursday Murder Club are drawn into another complex investigation. Alongside the killing, a mysterious and valuable package that the victim had been protecting has vanished.
Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim soon find themselves navigating a web of criminal activity that stretches far beyond their quiet community. Their search for answers brings them into contact with art forgers, online scammers and dangerous drug dealers, while the stakes rise with each new development.
As the case unfolds, the group must balance their determination to uncover the truth with the personal challenges and losses that affect them along the way. Blending suspense, humour and warmth, Osman’s novel continues the series’ mix of classic whodunnit mystery and character-driven storytelling.
