The Man Who Died Twice – Richard Osman

The Thursday Murder Club reunites for a new mystery.  When Elizabeth’s ex shows up needing a place to hide out after stealing some diamonds, the retirement community seems like as good a place as any.  An attempt on his life sends him and his handler off to a proper halfway house, where they both turn up dead, and the gang tries to figure out who’s responsible while trying to find the now-missing diamonds.

Richard Osman returns with The Man Who Died Twice, the second entry in his Thursday Murder Club series.  It actually took me a while to get through this one, since my loan from the library ended mid-read and then I had to wait at the end of the line again.  And, if you’re wondering if checking it out again retains where you left off, the answer is no, so I spent some time skipping ahead once I realized I had already read a portion.  Anyway. I’ve got the third, and most recent, entry in his series on hold at the library, which should come in early next year.
