SUCH FUN!” —Kate Atkinson, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Big Sky “Charming, funny, and ultimately, surprisingly, very moving.” —Linwood Barclay, New York Times bestselling author of Find You First “I don’t know how to do this brilliant book justice. Diabolically clever, very funny, highly entertaining—utterly delightful. I completely fell in love with it. I need more of The Thursday Murder Club!” —Shari Lapena, New York Times bestselling author of The Couple Next Door “Loved every word. Loved the fleet, nimble plotting, as ingenious as top-shelf Agatha Christie; loved the boisterous cast of characters—think Fredrik Backman; loved the crisp, witty, Carl Hiaasen-caliber dialogue... yet above all, I love The Thursday Murder Club for its psychological texture, emotional depth, and luminous, fireside warmth. What a generous novel. Readers of Louise Penny and Kate Atkinson, rejoice." —A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window “Suspenseful, funny, and poignant.
