In an upscale retirement community in the English countryside, former secret agent Elizabeth refuses to "grow old in diapers and in a wheelchair." She contacts mystery-obsessed nurse Joyce, worker Ron, and psychologist Ibrahim, who also live there, and they form the "Thursday Mystery Club." They meet every Thursday to study long-standing unsolved cases and mysteries.

Unexpectedly, a series of murders really happened around him. The builder in the community was attacked and killed; the number one suspect suddenly fell to the ground and died; an unknown skeleton from 50 years ago was dug up in the cemetery... The case became more and more complicated.

The four "armchair detectives", with an average age of 77.5 years old, each showed their talents: Elizabeth used her special agent skills to dig out key clues; Ron screened out suspects before the police in constant denial; Ibrahim and Joyce used their professional acumen to find breakthroughs in the case.

Who is the real murderer? This new type of mystery novel (Cozy Mystery) leads readers to solve the crime while soothing their souls and finding the ultimate happiness and wisdom in life.
