I read this because I’d heard a lot about it and also wanted to watch the adaptation on streaming. It was murder light with a lot of unnecessary complexity and was a real strain on my credulity.
This retirement home is seriously upscale and its residents really on the ball for being in their eighties. Not only that, but they have such interesting backgrounds and can acquire delicate and sensitive information from all sources. The four main members of the Club sure get around a lot and manage to outmaneuver the police team assigned to the murders the two owners of the property.
There were way too many characters in this novel and many unneeded for the plot. It seemed to drag in places and the traveling seemed a bit much. I guess I wasn’t as taken with it as so many others, but glad I read it. Will I read future installments? I don’t know!
This is the first of a series to be read in order.
