Resumen del Editor

An instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

A new mystery is afoot in the fourth book in the Thursday Murder Club series from million-copy bestselling author Richard Osman

It's rarely a quiet day for the Thursday Murder Club.

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?

And who will be the last devil to die?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“So what is it about the Thursday Murder Club books that make them so broadly appealing? The simple answer is that they are really good. The writing is pithy and fresh, so much so that I kept writing down lines from The Last Devil To Die. . . But there’s more than just quotable sentences at work here. Osman’s plots play fair with the reader, carefully placing “red herrings” to fool the reader into picking the wrong possible murder suspect—a gambit that has improved with each successive book. The endings feel both inevitable and earned: the exact combination one wants in a good mystery. . . Osman’s greatest strength is fusing the puzzle-mastery of Christie and her Golden Age peers with emotional earnestness and wry humor.” —Esquire

“The latest adventure of the Thursday Murder Club is also its best... Even if the mysteries weren't absorbing — which they are — Osman's books, like Alexander McCall Smith's, would work simply because it's such fun to spend time with these people. What sets Devil apart from its predecessors is the deftness and humor with which Osman confronts a subject that's completely not funny: dementia... In the end, the murder club books are not really about crime but about friendship and finding ways to stay involved in life.” —Minneapolis Star Tribune

“What is truly special in the books are the characters, whose age allows for a beautiful kind of interaction… For all the fizz of jokes and romance, the books carry with them a sense of grief and sadness which becomes much stronger in The Last Devil to Die… The kindness is his books comes out of something greater for Osman. It’s how he wants the world to be and it’s how he thinks the world is, if only we could realize it.” —Town & Country

I loved it.

I think this is the best one in the series. What I love about these books are yes they are mysteries, but there’s also really incredible character development. You get to know and love these characters and their backstory’s as well as solving the mystery. Well done.

I LOVE this weird

So much fun! Amazing characters and plot. Certain subjects are written such a heart breaking manner that you sit and cry yourself, while other sections had me laughing out loud. The Thursday murder club series are truly some of best books I’ve ever read. I can’t wait for the next one! So worth the money!

One of the best books and series

What a wonderful addition to a fabulous series! Osman weaves humor throughout sometimes difficult topics and captures the senior world (which I work in) flawlessly. I cannot recommend this book highly enough!

Insight into aging

I am 78 and my husband is 79. I am still an an academic but we are beginning to experience dementia and it’s sorrows together. This wonderful series is a respectful understanding of what it means to age.

Brilliant Fun

Absolutely beautiful story! So much cunning in these characters. This book brought me pure joy. So brilliantly consistent.

Book one: 5 Stars
Book two: 5 Stars
Book three: 5 Stars

And this book: 5 stars

From the first book I went into this story already loving Richard Osman’s sense of humor from British Panel shows.

When asked for one word to describe his books he used, “comforting” and that is precisely what it is!

These characters are moved by friendship. Wholesome. Nurturing. Challenging.
Friendship in all kinds of love. Romantic, Platonic, heterosexual, homosexual. All walks of life, all human attachments and networks of support for each other.
“Love finds a language.”

Elizabeth, former spy, Joyce, former nurse, Ron, former union & Ibrahim, still practicing psychiatry are in the best club at Cooper Chase retirement home!

I’m packing my bags & moving in with them!

So good!

I really enjoy these books. This one was especially thought provoking about a very personal subject in aging. I am not in this age group yet but God willing I will make it there and I will be have a group of friends like these. I love that their ages are but a number and they do not fit the mold of aging pensioners.

Love the Thursday Murder Club!

These stories are always great & this one was no different. I knew things were changing for Elizabeth & Steven but I didn’t want it to happen. The part that had their last words was so well done but I cried, I do miss Lesley, I hope she comes back. Linda

My favorite of the series!

I love the way the beauty of friendship, no matter what age, is central to the storyline.
