About this listen
There's just one problem: the charming DS Raymond Collins and the razor-sharp DC Sarah Eastly are getting a little too curious about the mysterious new retiree in their midst. And Judith's got more than a few secrets she'd rather keep buried...
From garden parties to hidden bodies, this deliciously twisted cozy mystery proves that retirement is anything but dull.
Perfect for fans of Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club, this witty whodunit serves up murder with a side of mischief and proves that some skills never go out of style – even if they're not exactly legal.
The first book in a brilliantly entertaining new series that will leave you guessing, grinning, and checking what your neighbours are up to.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A real giggle that shows age makes us have more fun!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you love Thursday, you'll enjoy Friday's murder club
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fast moving, water tight plot
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A huge amount of cozy fun
