This was by far the best book of the series! Even a tiny bit better than Bullet Train. The other books only play a small part here, so if you've read BT, you can go ahead and read this one. Seriously, I loved it. Once again, we're reading about murderers, and keep on thinking “Well, they're actually quite nice“. Because they somehow are. I loved Koko-san and Soda and of course Nanao. And Blanket and Pillow. See what I mean?!

RosePressedPages I loved this one too! I hope he adds more to this series. I can‘t get enough of this quirky, oddly nice, murderers lol 3d
Jari-chan @RosePressedPages I would totally read another book in this series! 3d
TheAromaofBooks Woohoo!! 3d

How did we live without audiobooks ?! This book features 4 60 year olds who are retired from being assassins and while on a cruise treated like doddering old fools while I, a 60 year old, shovelled all this dirt 🤬

Bookwormjillk Wow, I‘m impressed! And yes how did we live without audiobooks indeed. 1w
Hooked_on_books I loved this book! And there‘s a follow up! 1w

Four post-menopausal assassins on the brink of retirement? Say less - a fun and imaginative premise! These characters kick ass—and are funny, fierce, and full of history. The pacing is quick, but oddly, I still found myself bored at times. The execution just didn‘t match the promise of the premise. Still, if you love strong female leads & spy-style thrillers, it's worth picking up. I listened to this one on audio. ⭐️⭐️⭐️ ❤️📚🎧

Nothing like picking up a hardcover book (tagged) for $11…added the middle grade book (it has good reviews) just because.

Re-read before reading the sequel which just came out. Women assassins taking out terrible people, including Nazis, seems like an appropriate read for the current times.

Raybourn's Veronica Speedwell series has humor and lively, wonderfully singular characters. Killers of a Certain Age has very bland characters. Female assassins who have aged-out of their jobs at the "museum" fighting against an unknown enemy with an elite force at its disposal. What a great plot. Alas, it was boring. The time skips could have been used in such a way as to make the story more complex; however, mostly they were just tedious.

KathyWheeler I always find it interesting how different people react to books. I didn‘t really love what I read of the Veronica Speedwell books at all, but I loved this one. I did find one character, Valerie — I think — unnecessary, as I couldn‘t even remember that she existed let alone remember her name. 3mo
Nebklvr @KathyWheeler I know!! I read the other comments and I am an outsider on this one! 3mo
