The Man Who Died Twice, Audiobook (2021) Richard Osman narrated by Lesley Manville (Thursday Murder Club #2)

That twinkle in his eye was undimmed. The twinkle that gave an entirely undeserved suggestion of wisdom and charm.

You want to know what I think, by the way?” says Ron.

“Not really, Ron,” replies Elizabeth.

“I think you could easily have made two phone calls last night, could have had me and Joyce both here. But I think you didn’t want me to meet your ex-husband.”

Joyce nods as Elizabeth responds. “Well, I’ve always wished I’d never met him, so I like to extend the same courtesy to my friends.”

He doesn’t know where Elizabeth got hold of the overalls, but boy were they comfortable. He wonders if he’s allowed to keep them. Wearing overalls every day would be a slippery slope, though. There’s a thin line between wearing overalls and going to the shop in your pajamas.
