Richard Osman has created a fascinating gallery of characters. I honestly never thought I'd be interested in reading about a gang of pensioners solving murders, but thanks to his plotting and ability to give his characters interesting personalities, it works well.
A new mystery is afoot in the third book in the Thursday Murder Club series from record-breaking, bestselling author Richard Osman.
It is an ordinary Thursday and things should finally be returning to normal.
Except trouble is never far away where the Thursday Murder Club are concerned. A decade-old cold case leads them to a local news legend and a murder with no body and no answers.
Then a new foe pays Elizabeth a visit. Her mission? Kill. . . or be killed.
As the cold case turns white hot, Elizabeth wrestles with her conscience…
The (un)real story about two brothers from the ass end of nowhere in the Scottish Highlands becoming the World's Strongest Brothers. This book has it all: drama, love, a storyline so crazy it could never have been made it. Simply put, this book is unputdownable!
When Loch Morlich freezes over, we cut a hole in the ice and jump in.
Tom 'The Albatross' and Luke 'The Highland Oak' Stoltman are the world's strongest brothers. Between them, they've won everything there is to win in the mighty world of Strongman.
Tom can deadlift a 430kg bar to hip height, equivalent to about seven washing machines. Luke isn't far behind. Yet for the Stoltmans, being strong is about more than pure muscle. It's about overcoming adversity. And it's about honouring their biggest fan: their mother, who died in 2016 leaving the family devastated.
This book is probably one of the most important books of the last three decades. It unravels how one man was brave enough to take on the insanity of the Kremlin and showcase for the world the depravity of russian corruption. A must read!
