#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The unmissable new mystery in the Thursday Murder Club series from bestselling author Richard Osman, now streaming on Netflix

Who's got time to think about murder when there's a wedding to plan?

It’s been a quiet year for the Thursday Murder Club. Joyce is busy with table plans and first dances. Elizabeth is grieving. Ron is dealing with family troubles, and Ibrahim is still providing therapy to his favorite criminal.

But when Elizabeth meets Nick, a wedding guest asking for her help, she finds the thrill of the chase is ignited once again. And when Nick disappears without a trace, his cagey business partner becomes the gang’s next stop. It seems the duo have something valuable—something worth killing for.

Joyce’s daughter, Joanna, jumps into the fray to help the gang as they seek answers: Has someone kidnapped Nick? And what’s this uncrackable code they keep hearing about? Plunged back into action once more, can the four friends solve the puzzle and a murder in time?

Ce que les critiques en disent

“Osman’s septuagenarian sleuths are having a busy fall, making their film debut (on Netflix Aug. 28) and returning for another literary adventure. The latest addition to the Thursday Murder Club series promises plenty more satisfying twists and English charm as Joyce, Elizabeth, Ron and Ibrahim investigate the disappearance of a guest at a wedding.”
—The New York Times Book Review

“Witty and openhearted. . . [The Impossible Fortune] features the same sort of sly humor and thrillerish components that make the other novels hum along: a car bomb, a missing person, a possibly unopenable safe, an unscrupulous aristocrat, some excellent sleuthing by octogenarians whose ages cause others to underestimate them. But Osman’s fans know that there’s more to it than that. . . . Tucked inside the crowd-pleasing plots are themes of grief, loss, friendship, the renegotiated relationships between parents and their adult children, and the indignities and sorrows of old age.”—Sarah Lyall, The New York Times

“Pensioners Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim are up to their old tricks again in Osman’s Thursday Murder Club series, inserting themselves into a missing-persons case that will no doubt ensnare their expanding roster of buddies, from their favorite local police detectives to an imprisoned drug kingpin.”—The Washington Post

Another great performance by the author and narrator. I find myself liking the characters more with every new story.

Very good!

Another great instalment of the series. The story is great and I feel like Richard Osman took the character development so much deeper than he has before. Looking forward to the next one!

Great twist and touching ending!

I can't tell if the movie has ruined this for me, even though I switched off 15 minutes in. As great as those actors are, they are not the Thursday Murder Club. Pierce Brosnan? Really? Though it was cute when Ron's favourite Bond is revealed to be Pierce. Overall the story is weaker than the previous instalments. Elizabeth in the wake of Stephen's death is interesting, but Osman has made Joyce a joke - she is a ditz, not a complete idiot. Kind of missed Chris and Donna too. Oh well - it was still an enjoyable way to pass a few car drives and I am sure I will sign up for the next one.

Has this series outstayed its welcome?

I love these characters and the world, and the writing is great… however, the story was a bit weak this time. Still enjoyable, but maybe just not as fantasias the others in this series.

Good, but not fantastic.
