About this listen

Dark humour, dirty deeds, marriages and murder . . . The perfect new listen for fans of The Thursday Murder Club, How to Kill Your Family and White Lotus

'An absolute scream from the first page to the last' Janice Hallett, author of The Appeal
'Certainly a match for Richard Osman' Daily Mail
'Incredibly funny with plot twists you won't see coming' Stylist

Their husbands are driving them mad, and murder is on their minds . . . but the men have a plan of their own.

Pam, Nancy and Shalisa once imagined retirement would mean setting aside their worries, picking up their margaritas, and lying back in a hot tub. Right up until their husbands lost all their savings in a reckless investment.

Now, collecting their husbands' life insurance is starting to sound more appealing than growing old with them. But enlisting the help of the local barber/hitman isn't merely the most daring thing the friends have ever done - it's also where the trouble really begins.

Because they don't realise their husbands have some tricks up their sleeves. And there's no turning back now . . .

From the first laugh to the final twist, The Retirement Plan is full of characters who will steal your heart while plotting their dark deeds.

I often find my mind wandering with some audiobooks but The Retirement Plan completely held my attention. Laugh out loud funny, brilliant plot and fabulous characters. Absolutely loved it!

Hilarious & brilliantly plotted!

If you read only one book this year, make sure it's this one. Pam, Nancy, and Shalisa are fed up with their husbands and decide it's time for a change. Together, they devise a plan to rid themselves of both the men and their financial troubles.

Unbeknownst to the women, the men have also been concocting a scheme of their own.

This book is filled with fun, entertainment, and plenty of laughs. It's perfect for a holiday read or for simply relaxing.

I give it a solid 5 stars. Well done, Sue!

5/5
