Coming in October
PBS Books Readers Club welcomes celebrity writer Richard Osman to discuss his best-selling novel The Thursday Murder Club. The episode premieres on October 29th at 5PM ET as a PBS Books Facebook Live event, on the PBS Books YouTube channel, pbsbooks.org, and the PBS app.
The Thursday Murder Club opens in a quiet retirement village, where four unlikely friends meet each week to solve cold cases. But when a brutal murder takes place nearby, Elizabeth, Joyce, Ibrahim, and Ron suddenly find themselves with their very first live investigation. Each brings a unique set of skills to the table, but can this oddball gang catch a killer before it’s too late?
A classic cozy crime with a modern twist, The Thursday Murder Club combines the charm of amateur sleuths piecing together clues with thoughtful reflections on friendship, purpose, and aging. Heartfelt, funny, and clever, it’s a mystery that appeals to adult readers of every age.
