The Impossible Fortune by Richard OsmanMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
The Thursday Murder Club returns after a brief hiatus for the fifth mystery in the series, and this one’s a 3.5 rounded up to 4 in large part because returning to these characters is a stark reminder that Osman utterly goofed it by pivoting to We Solve Murders and its much more annoying cast of characters last year. By now, this series is so well lived in that I’m much more invested in them than ever, even Ron whom I disliked so much at first. This book does a great job picking up the pieces after the personal tragedies of The Last Devil to Die, and reminding us all of how much life goes on even when another big crime is right around the corner.
