The Thursday Murder Club, Audiobook

The Thursday Murder Club, Audiobook (2020) Richard Osman narrated by Lesley Manville (Thursday Murder Club #1)

Elizabeth admires suspicion above all else and invited Ron to flick through the file of a scoutmaster found burned to death in 1982 in woodland just off the A27. She soon spotted his key strength—namely, he never believes a single word anyone ever tells him.

He had once read a headline about Diet Coke that was so worrying he had chosen not to read the article.

Elizabeth put up more spirited opposition, mentioning that she still held a fully valid tank license. She really could play fast and loose with the Official Secrets Act at times. But in the end it all came down to this: Ibrahim was the only one who understood how the satnav worked.

Lots of people have an “All’s Well” arrangement. You buddy up with a pal, ring them at eight a.m., let it ring twice, and put the phone down. Then they do the same back. So you each know the other is okay, without it costing you a penny. And, of course, you don’t have to have a conversation.
