This is the second book about the Thursday Mystery Club, about some seniors who like to solve crimes. This time a crime comes to them.... One of the women was a former MI-5 person receives a note to meet a man who is supposed to be dead. He was from a case years before where they faked a death as part of a case.
When she goes to meet the person she is shocked to find that the man who contacted her was actually an ex-husband. He has still been working and is now in protection because he has been accused of stealing diamonds from a case he was working on.
Soon after the ex and his "keeper" are both found murdered. The faces are so damaged that they suspect one or the other of the bodies are not really who they think they are.
The woman is convinced her ex probably did steal the diamonds. He leaves her various clues. Eventually after dealing with some really nasty characters they do find the diamonds and donate the proceeds to a good cause.
These are entertaining books, there are a lot of spunky characters and a lot of humour. The plot development was really interesting.
