Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. 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. 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. no reviews | add a review

Shocking news reaches them--an old friend has been killed, and a dangerous package he was protecting has gone missing. The gang's search leads them into the antiques business, where the tricks of the trade are as old as the objects themselves. As they encounter drug dealers, art forgers, and online fraudsters--as well as heartache close to home--Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim have no idea whom to trust. With the body count rising, the clock ticking down, and trouble firmly on their tail, has their luck finally run out? No library descriptions found. |
