V luxusní vesnici pro seniory se každý týden schází neobvyklá skupinka přátel, která se snaží rozlousknout staré nevyřešené kriminální případy. Někdejší policistka či snad dokonce tajná agentka Elizabeth (o své minulosti raději příliš nemluví), slavný odborářský vůdce na odpočinku Ron, vyhledávaný psychiatr v důchodu Ibrahim a bývalá zdravotní sestra Joyce disponují bohatými zkušenostmi i cennými kontakty a vyšetřování zločinů je jejich společnou vášní. A tak když jednoho dne začne policie pátrat po vrahovi místního developera, nemůže samozřejmě tohle činorodé kvarteto amatérských detektivů zůstat stranou... Populární moderátor Richard Osman dokázal v oceňovaném románovém debutu skloubit napínavý detektivní příběh s humornou sondou do života britských seniorů. „Čtvrteční klub amatérských detektivů je strhující a místy i úsměvné čtení. Osmanovi se podařilo vdechnout život jedinečným postavám, které působí, jako by byly skutečné.“ – Judith Reveal, New York Journal of Books. „Chytrá a vtipná detektivka s ideálním poměrem sentimentu a lidskosti.“ – Michaela Turková, Centrum detektivky. „Vtipný a uštěpačný příběh!“ – The Daily Telegraph. „Originální a opravdu k popukání.“ – The Sun. „Jeden z nejúžasnějších románů roku.“ – The Daily Mirror. „Vzrušující nový talent v krimi!“ – The Daily Mail.

Každý štvrtok sa v Coopers Chase, luxusnom mestečku pre seniorov niekde uprostred kentských lesov, stretávajú amatérski detektívi a venujú sa nevyriešeným vraždám miestnej polície. Coopers Chase stojí na pozemkoch bývalého kláštora a tamojší developer, arogantný vulgárny muž, majiteľ veľkého červeného klavíra, sa usiluje využiť biele miesto v zmluve, aby na mieste kaplnky a cintorína postavil osem nových bytov. Očividne mu nie je súdený dlhý život, a keď mu niekto pichne smrtiacu injekciu, štvrtkový klub detektívov má pred sebou reálny prípad vraždy.
