Osman deals with dementia in the most sensitive, poignant way - very touching. The current murder mystery becomes second to the drama that unfolds among this amazing cast of characters. Loved it! ( ) This was fun book to read. It’s the 4th in the series Thursday Murder club and the first I’ve read so i was unfamiliar with the main characters. They are all residents of Coopers Chase a close knit retirement community full of widows and widowers. The group consists of Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, Bogdan and Ishmael. Their hobby is to solve local crimes before the police do. In this case, they are chasing down a romantic phone scam involving their friend and also solving the murder of their friend and antique dealer Kuldesh who somehow got involved in a heroin drug deal The story is well told with madcap humour involving the police and odd conversations amongst friends and criminals. A grentle story of aging well, looking after friends and longing for company, belonging to a community. The Last Devil to Die is written by Richard Osman. It is Book #4 of the Thursday Murder Club series. Disturbing news reaches Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron & Ibrahim - the Thursday Murder Club. An old friend has been murdered and a ‘special’ package he was protecting has gone missing. In their desire to solve the murder, the group encounters drug dealers, art forgers, antiques dealers, antiquities experts and fraudsters of all types. As the body count increases, they don’t know who to trust. Brilliant plotting, likeable, quirky characters, a nice retirement village, lots of cakes, snacks and wine and lots of information and thoughts on dementia and end of life directives. The dialogue and diary entries (thanks to Joyce) are interesting, funny, endearing, surprising, charming, intelligent and very often deeply thought-provoking. I seem to be addicted to The Thursday Murder Club! ***** This is such a joy of a light(ish) crime fiction series that I've had the great pleasure of listening to. https://www.austcrimefiction.org/review/last-devil-die-richard-osman Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Shocking news reaches them--an old friend has been killed, and a dangerous package he was protecting has gone missing. The gang's search leads them into the antiques business, where the tricks of the trade are as old as the objects themselves. As they encounter drug dealers, art forgers, and online fraudsters--as well as heartache close to home--Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim have no idea whom to trust. With the body count rising, the clock ticking down, and trouble firmly on their tail, has their luck finally run out? No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |
