      In een prettig en rustig bejaardenhuis vormen vier bewoners een onwaarschijnlijk clubje. Een keer per week, op de donderdag, ontmoeten ze elkaar om onopgeloste moorden te onderzoeken. Als een vastgoedontwikkelaar uit het nabijgelegen stadje wordt vermoord komt ‘de moordclub’ in actie; het is hun eerste grote zaak. Tot hun verbazing lijkt de moord alles te maken te hebben met hun eigen verzorgingshuis. De vier vrienden mogen dan wel behoorlijk op leeftijd zijn, ze hebben allemaal meer dan genoeg levenservaring. Maar zijn ze nog in staat om een moordenaar te vinden voor hij weer toeslaat?

His story involves stolen diamonds, a violent mobster, and a very big mistake. As bodies start piling up, Elizabeth enlists Joyce, Ibrahim and Ron in the hunt for a killer. And if they find the diamonds too? Well, wouldn't that be a bonus? But this time they are up against a ruthless murderer who wouldn't bat an eyelid at knocking off four septuagenarians. Can the Thursday Murder Club find the killer (and the diamonds) before the killer finds them?
