About this listen
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 their life savings in a reckless investment.
Now, the men are on their last nerve, and collecting their life insurance sounds more appealing than growing old together. But enlisting the help of the local barber/hitman isn't merely the most daring thing the wives 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.©2025 Sue Hincenbergs (P)2025 Hachette Audio UK

Critic reviews
The Retirement Plan by Sue Hincenbergs is jaw-droppingly hilarious, but that's just the start. This wild story is meticulously plotted with wonderfully vivid characters and is an absolute scream from first page to last. So slick I can't believe it's a debut - strong contender for my cosy crime book of the year! (Janice Hallett, author of THE APPEAL)
The Retirement Plan is a razor sharp, clever, funny novel which is also surprisingly tender. I gulped it down over a couple of days and found myself both laughing, and gasping out loud at the twists and turns the story took. I defy you not to be rooting for these characters. It's a triumph (Jennie Godfrey, author of THE LIST OF SUSPICIOUS THINGS)
Relentlessly and rambunctiously entertaining. A feel-good crime caper that could put a smile on the face of any hitman (Chris Brookmyre, author of THE CRACKED MIRROR)
Sharp, wicked and thoroughly addictive! (Ian Moore, author of DEATH AND CROISSANTS)
This funny, twisty read about three girlfriends who turn to murder (husbands watch out!) had me turning the pages late into the night. Razor-sharp and deviously dark! (Sarah Pearse, author of THE SANATORIUM)
Deliciously dark, twisty and packed full of humour and charm, The Retirement Plan had me racing through the pages to witness the hijinks unfold. A hugely impressive debut from a real star in the making (Amy McCulloch, author of BREATHLESS)
Absolutely hilarious is the only way to describe Sue Hincenbergs' debut, The Retirement Plan, with a cast of charming but deeply flawed characters I couldn't help rooting for! (Jessica Bull, author of MISS AUSTEN INVESTIGATES)
Sue Hincenbergs' novel is so deliciously slippery, funny and unpredictable. A heady cocktail of Desperate Housewives and Elmore Leonard, served with a refreshingly amoral cast - I gulped it down (Keith Stuart, author of A BOY MADE OF BLOCKS)
