Dark Comedy Meets Suspense in ‘The Retirement Plan’

The Retirement Plan  is a darkly humorous story that follows the lives of some middle-aged best friends who find themselves in a desperate situation. After their husbands’ investment goes terribly wrong, their dreams of a carefree retirement vanish. When one husband dies in a freak accident, the women discover that their husbands have identical, seven-figure life insurance policies. This revelation leads them to hatch a plan involving a hitman, unaware that their husbands have a devious plan of their own

This is just a delightful blend of dark comedy and suspense; If you’re a fan of The Thursday Murder Club books this will be a must read for you. The novel’s strength lies in its well-developed characters and the intricate, high-stakes plot that kept me turning the pages. The dynamic between the three friends is both heartwarming and hilarious, showcasing the complexities of long-term friendships and marriages.

The plot moves at a brisk pace, and the alternating perspectives between the wives and their husbands add depth to the story, making it a compelling read from start to finish which is an entertaining and thought-provoking debut that balances humor and suspense with skill.

The Retirement Plan is released on May 6th.
