The Bullet That Missed

Richard Osman, Viking, £20

A welcome continuation of the blockbuster Thursday Murder Club novels, this offering sees us back with Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron and Ibrahim as they once again find themselves in trouble.

This time, the gang are trying to solve a decades-old murder case, and Elizabeth’s past comes back to haunt her.

Full of wit and warmth, best to have read the others in the series first.
