The Bullet That Missed by Richard Osman

 The Thursday Murder Club quartet of Elizabeth, Joyce, Ron, and Ibrahim decide to delve into the case of reporter Bethany Waites. Bethany was presumed dead ten years ago when her car was seen driving off a cliff. They get close to journalist Mike Waghorn (who was Bethany's good friend at the time she disappeared), in hopes that Mike will help lead them to cracking the case. In addition, Elizabeth find herself in a quite a spot. As a former spy, someone wants her to commit a murder for them. If Elizabeth refuses, the person, nicknamed the Viking, will kill Joyce. How will Elizabeth get herself out of this situation and keep Joyce safe? In this third book of the Thursday Murder Club series, Osman doesn't disappoint with his light-heartened humor and memorable characters.
