Summary

Link to this episode in the new The Shameless Book Club feed: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7xuIS9m0yhNfm0uJYoENp3?si=2e36aea4308f4061 Hello, book club friends! This month, we read ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ by Richard Osman. This number one best-seller takes place in a peaceful retirement village, where four unlikely friends meet up once a week to investigate unsolved murders. But when a brutal killing takes place on their very doorstep, the Thursday Murder Club find themselves in the middle of their first live case. Elizabeth, Joyce, Ibrahim and Ron might be pushing eighty but they still have a few tricks up their sleeves. Can this unorthodox but brilliant gang catch the killer before it's too late? Got some thoughts on our March pick, ‘Alone With You In The Ether’ by Olivie Blake? We’re allllll ears (also, eyes, heads, bodies, etc etc) - join in the convo over on our Insta, @theshamelessbookclub. Or, if you’re after some variety, here’s a link to record a voice message via our website, too. Big thanks to Penguin Books Australia and ‘Why Has Nobody Told Me This Before?’ by Dr Julie Smith for making this episode possible.
