Readers meet Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim, four sharp-witted retirees at Cooper's Chase who turn a quiet hobby of reviewing cold cases into genuine amateur detective work. When real murders land on their doorstep, the friends use decades of experience, dry humor, and surprising cunning to outpace the police. Perfect for cozy mystery fans, book clubs, or anyone craving a smart, funny, page-turning crime series with real heart.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRichard Osman's Thursday Murder Club series opens with four unlikely friends living out their golden years at the Cooper's Chase retirement village in Kent. Elizabeth, a former intelligence operative; Joyce, a warm and observant retired nurse; Ron, a fiery ex-union boss; and Ibrahim, a meticulous former psychiatrist, gather every Thursday in the Jigsaw Room to pick apart unsolved murder cases for fun. Their hobby turns serious in the first book when a local property developer is found dead and a cryptic photograph surfaces at the scene, launching the quartet into their first live investigation. In the sequel, The Man Who Died Twice, the friends are barely settled after their first success when Elizabeth's past comes calling: an old colleague is on the run from dangerous men, and stolen diamonds are somehow involved. Both novels balance clever plotting with warm, character-driven comedy, treating the group's age and experience as an asset. Osman's plotting rewards attentive readers with fair-play twists, and together these two books set the tone for a publishing phenomenon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCollects the first two books in Richard Osman's acclaimed Thursday Murder Club series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand-new paperback set, great value for starting the series from the beginning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCozy mystery style with sharp plotting, ideal for fans of gentle, character-led crime fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback format is easy to pack for travel, the beach, or a daily commute\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for mystery lovers, book club members, or retirees who enjoy a good puzzle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces a beloved ensemble cast readers will want to follow across the full series\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Thursday Murder Club — Four retirees at Cooper's Chase turn their weekly cold-case hobby into a real murder investigation when a local developer is found dead.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Man Who Died Twice — Elizabeth's dangerous past resurfaces as the gang chases down stolen diamonds and a colleague on the run in this fast-paced sequel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRichard Osman is a British television presenter, producer, and author best known for creating and hosting Pointless.

The four Thursday Murder Club novels follow a quartet of retirees who turn unsolved-crime cold cases into a weekly hobby, only to find themselves pulled into increasingly dangerous real-world investigations involving stolen diamonds, missing journalists, art forgers, and old grudges resurfacing decades later. Osman's ensemble cast—Elizabeth the ex-spy, Joyce the quietly observant former nurse, Ibrahim the meticulous psychiatrist, and Ron the ex-union firebrand—anchors every twist with warmth, humor, and genuine emotional stakes. The fifth book, We Solve Murders, steps outside Coopers Chase to introduce Steve Wheeler, a retired detective enjoying a quiet life, and his daughter-in-law Amy, a private security operative whose globe-trotting job drags them both into a high-stakes conspiracy. While it isn't part of the original Thursday Murder Club series, it carries the same signature blend of clever plotting, warm banter, and accessible suspense that made Osman a favorite among mystery readers. Together, these five books showcase Osman's gift for pairing puzzle-box plotting with characters readers genuinely want to spend time with—never gratuitously dark, always propulsive, and full of dry, observational humor. Whether read in order or picked up individually, each title stands on its own while rewarding those who follow the full set, making this collection a satisfying introduction to one of contemporary crime fiction's most beloved voices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive complete paperback mysteries from Richard Osman in one collection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes all four Thursday Murder Club novels plus the new series-starter We Solve Murders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCozy, character-driven whodunits with genuine warmth and humor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect gift for fans of clever, accessible crime fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact paperback format, easy to read, share, and store\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for book clubs, holiday gifting, or a satisfying vacation read\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Thursday Murder Club — Four retirees meet weekly to solve cold cases until a real murder lands on their doorstep.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Man Who Died Twice — Elizabeth's past resurfaces with stolen diamonds and a ruthless mobster hunting her down.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Bullet That Missed — A decade-old cold case and a missing journalist put Elizabeth squarely in a killer's sights.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Last Devil to Die — The murder of an antiques dealer friend pulls the group into a dangerous smuggling trail.\u003cbr\u003e\nWe Solve Murders — Retired detective Steve Wheeler and his security-operative daughter-in-law Amy chase a conspiracy across the globe.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRichard Osman is a British writer, television producer, and presenter, widely known for co-hosting the long-running quiz show Pointless.

It begins with The Thursday Murder Club, introducing four retirees at Coopers Chase who turn a weekly hobby of reviewing cold cases into an active murder investigation on their own doorstep. The Man Who Died Twice pulls Elizabeth into a dangerous reunion with a former colleague, stolen diamonds, and a vengeful mob. The Bullet That Missed sends the group chasing a decade-old disappearance tangled up with local television fame and a body that was never found. The Last Devil to Die deepens the emotional stakes as an antiques dealer's murder uncovers drug-smuggling secrets, testing the friends' resolve and resilience. The series concludes, for now, with The Impossible Fortune, in which a wedding on the horizon collides with grief, old grudges, and one more fiendishly clever case. Across all five installments, Osman balances laugh-out-loud dialogue with genuine tenderness, exploring aging, memory, and loyalty without ever losing narrative momentum. Each book stands on its own as a satisfying mystery while contributing to a larger, ongoing story about friendship and purpose in later life. Fans of Agatha Christie-style plotting with a distinctly modern, humane voice will find this collection immensely rewarding from start to finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll five Thursday Murder Club novels together in one convenient set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWitty, character-driven cozy mysteries perfect for fans of clever plotting and warm humor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand new condition, ready to gift or add to any home library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat for book clubs, retirees, and readers who love a smart page-turner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFollows the same beloved quartet across five interconnected, standalone-friendly mysteries\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA thoughtful gift for birthdays, holidays, or summer reading lists\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Thursday Murder Club — Four retirees turn their weekly cold-case hobby into a live murder investigation when a body turns up at their own retirement village.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Man Who Died Twice — A letter from Elizabeth's past drags the group into a perilous hunt for stolen diamonds and a vengeful crime boss.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Bullet That Missed — A decade-old disappearance and a local television legend pull the club into a case with no body and no easy answers.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Last Devil to Die — An antiques dealer's murder uncovers a smuggling operation, pushing the friends' loyalty and courage to their limits.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Impossible Fortune — With a wedding to plan and old grudges resurfacing, the Thursday Murder Club faces its trickiest case yet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nRichard Osman is a British writer, television producer, and presenter, best known for co-hosting the long-running quiz show Pointless before turning to fiction.

Four beloved Thursday Murder Club novels follow Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim as they outwit killers from their retirement village common room, while We Solve Murders launches a fresh globe-trotting duo, Amy and Steve Wheeler, into equally sharp and funny detective work. Together the five titles showcase Osman's signature blend of cozy charm, clever plotting, and genuine heart, making this an ideal set for mystery lovers who want both a beloved series and its newest spin-off in one purchase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Books\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This collection gathers Richard Osman's celebrated blend of gentle humor and razor-sharp plotting across two connected reading experiences. The four Thursday Murder Club novels center on a quartet of retirees at Coopers Chase who meet weekly to review cold cases, only to find themselves tangled in very real murders. Elizabeth's spycraft, Joyce's disarming warmth, Ron's bluster, and Ibrahim's precision combine into an unlikely but formidable investigative team, and each book deepens their friendships while raising the stakes with smugglers, gangsters, and old secrets resurfacing in a peaceful English village. We Solve Murders steps away from Coopers Chase to introduce Amy Wheeler, a private security operative, and her retired-police father-in-law Steve, whose contrasting styles create instant chemistry as they chase a killer across international settings. Osman carries the same DNA into this new series: banter-driven dialogue, characters readers want to spend time with, and mysteries constructed with genuine fair-play clues rather than cheap twists. Reading the set together highlights how Osman's voice remains consistent even as he expands his fictional universe, rewarding longtime fans while giving newcomers an easy entry point through either series. Themes of aging, friendship, loyalty, and the quiet resilience of people often underestimated by society run through every book, lending emotional weight beneath the comedy. Whether read in publication order or by series, this set delivers the comfort of familiar company alongside the excitement of fresh cases, making it a satisfying way to experience one of contemporary crime fiction's most distinctive storytellers in a single collection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive paperback novels from a celebrated crime and mystery author in one convenient set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes all four Thursday Murder Club books plus the new We Solve Murders\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCharacter-driven mysteries with warmth, humor, and genuine puzzle-solving\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGreat gift for mystery fans, retirees, and readers who love cozy crime fiction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for holiday gifting, birthdays, or building a home crime-fiction library\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEasy to read in any order, ideal for binge reading or vacation travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBook-by-Book Guide\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We Solve Murders — Introduces private operative Amy Wheeler and her father-in-law Steve as they chase a killer across a globe-spanning conspiracy.\u003cbr\u003e The Thursday Murder Club — Four retirees at Coopers Chase turn their cold-case hobby into a real murder investigation on their own doorstep.\u003cbr\u003e The Man Who Died Twice — Elizabeth's past resurfaces when an old colleague draws the Thursday Murder Club into a dangerous scheme involving stolen diamonds.\u003cbr\u003e The Bullet That Missed — A cold case and a missing journalist pull the club into a plot involving television fraud and a hitman with regrets.\u003cbr\u003e The Last Devil To Die — A friend's death over a rare drug deal sends the Thursday Murder Club chasing smugglers while facing loss closer to home.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Richard Osman is a British author, television producer, and presenter best known for creating the Thursday Murder Club series, which became a global publishing phenomenon and a New York Times bestseller.
