This is such a joy of a light(ish) crime fiction series that I've had the great pleasure of listening to.

Another romp with Elizabeth, Ron, Bogdan, Joyce and Ibrahim. As with volumes 2&3 I found it enjoyable but just too blatantly formulaic, hence being tight with my * rating.

That said, each novel has offered something thought provoking and authentic beyond its murder plot. In this volume it was the Elizabeth/Stephen thread about his dementia. I've rarely come across such a touching presentation of a difficult subject. ( )

Well I didn't sign up for that emotional turmoil in my cozy mystery, but here we are. I'm still glad I read it. ( )

My favorite of the series so far. ( )

It is the Christmas holidays and the THursday Murder Club is gathering. They find out that a friend of Stephen's (Elizabeth's husband) has been murdered. Their investigation pulls them into a drug deal, antiques, and also online scammers.
There is also a very poignant storyline relating to Elizabeth and Stephen, and his descent into dementia, and his realization that he has this disease.
Another fun mystery featuring the gang. ( )
