The Man Who Died Twice by Richard Osman
4.0
The Man Who Died Twice by Richard Osman is the second novel in the Thursday Murder Club series. The club includes four pensioners (all in their 70s): Elizabeth Best, spy; Ron Ritchie, trade unionist; Joyce Meadowcroft, nurse; and Ibrahim Arif, psychiatrist. This plot involved 20 million pounds of stolen diamonds; a drug dealer, Connie Johnson, who is smarter than the local police; and a young man, Ryan Baird, who, unfortunately (for him), mugs Ibrahim. The plot has plenty of twists and turns, but the fun is the absurd situations and overly clever dialogue. I found this British author reminiscent of Carl Hiaasen.
An enjoyable read, full of non-sequiturs, comedic observations, and absurd humor.
