Description
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?

Brilliant
5By Buddybuddy86Funny and heartwarming at the same time.So many BIG topics to talk about!
5By ray-is-irkedThe characters continue to delight. The plot is unrealistic, of course, but who cares. The characters are dealing with all the major topics of aging.Enjoyed
4By CB4kidsDeeper than the previous three in the series and appropriately so. Osman deals gently with the scourge of dementia.Getting better
5By db simpsonI’ve read the previous three books in the series. Enjoyed each but I truly loved this one. Goes a little deeper into love, life and death (gives you a lot to chew on if you want) with all the fun and wit and characters of the first three books.A Bubbler of Fun
4By She She 1192Just a delight! These folks continue to harvest full yields of good trouble. They are the relatives I never had. Cheers to you all!Last Devil to Die
5By SF bookseller, retiredGosh, these Osman books are wonderful! Tremendously funny, sassily smart, and much too short.The Last Devil to Die is to die for! Loved it completely!
5By Lov2lrnAs with the other three previous novels in this delightful series, I fell completely in love with the story, the plot lines, the characters, and the twists and turns. I especially have enjoyed the dialogue between the characters and Joyce’s diary entries, as well as her ability to step up in place of Elizabeth, make an ingenious plan, and direct everyone to follow through. I want to live in Cooper’s Chase someday!A Complaint
5By kgballardI do have a complaint for Mr. Osman and that is that he has hooked me with this series just as surely as I would be hooked if indulging in one of the drugs around which his latest delight is built. And like an addict I crave a fix on a regular basis. I know I have to wait on the next club adventure, but please, Mr. Osman, please do hurry!The last devil to die

4By PinkiemommaLoved this book even though it left me feeling saddened unlike with the first 3 of the series. It came together too quickly-part if that was I would have lines to spend more time with the characters after what they had been through. But also too tidy.
