Og mens kalde spor blir glovarme, strever Elizabeth med kjærligheten (og en pistol), og Joyce, Ron og Ibrahim jakter på ledetråder med nye og gamle venners hjelp.

On tavallinen torstai, ja asioiden pitäisi olla viimein palaamassa taas raiteilleen. Mutta kyseessä on Torstain murhakerho, joten nurkan takana odottelee jo uusia vaikeuksia. Vanha ratkaisematon rikostapaus johtaa eläkeläisetsivänelikkoa kohti paikallista uutislegendaa ja murhatapausta vailla ruumista ja vastauksia. Sitten uusi vihollinen vierailee Elizabethin luona. Mitä tehdä? Tappaa... tai tulla tapetuksi. Kun kylmä tapaus muuttuu korventavan kuumaksi, Elizabeth kamppailee omantuntonsa (ja aseen) kanssa, kun taas Joyce, Ron ja Ibrahim jahtaavat johtolankoja apunaan vanhat ja uudet ystävät. Mutta onnistuvatko he ratkaisemaan mysteerin ja pelastamaan Elizabethin, ennen kuin murhaaja iskee jälleen?

Fire rævesnu venner. Endnu en hyggelig mordgåde. Det er en almindelig torsdag, hvis der altså findes almindelige dage for de fire pensionister, der igen mødes i Torsdagsmordklubben for at dyrke deres passion: uopklarede mordsager. En garvet, lokal journalist er på jagt efter en sensationel overskrift, og inden længe er den lille vennegruppe dybt engageret i at opklare to mord, der blev begået med ti års mellemrum. Som om det ikke var nok, får Elizabeth, den ene af de fire, besøg af en ny ærkefjende der præsenterer hende for en dødbringende mission: dræb eller bliv dræbt … Mens pensionisterne finder nye venner i en tv-stjerne, lyssky pengefolk og en tidligere KGB-agent, kæmper de for at løse mysteriet. Vil det lykkes dem at finde synderen og redde Elizabeth, før morderen slår til igen?

He has been accused of stealing diamonds worth millions from the wrong men and he's seriously on the lam. Then, as night follows day, the first body is found. But not the last.
