This is the second novel in the Thursday Murder Club series. I enjoyed it well enough.
The Thursday Murder Club is up to their antics again. This time there’s diamonds, mafia, and an ex-husband spy involved. Elizabeth, the leader of the club, receives a visit from her ex-husband, who’s asking for her help. He stole some diamonds and is now in trouble with the mafia. When he turns up dead, Elizabeth must untangle the mystery with the help of her four closest friends and a whole host of secondary characters.
The novel is a reasonably quick and light read. It occurred to me quite late on that the book is mostly telling rather than showing, but it’s effective here with all the characters.
As a sequel, it didn’t disappoint. The characters are still interesting and there’s a bit of growth for some of them.
