The Retirement Plan

The Retirement Plan by Sue Hincenbergs

A Darkly Funny, Twisted Debut Thriller About Love, Lies, and Life Insurance
Think your golden years will be peaceful? Think again.

In The Retirement Plan, a razor-sharp, laugh-out-loud thriller, four lifelong friends decide there's only one way to salvage their ruined retirements—murder.

After their husbands’ latest investment scheme crashes and burns, Pam, Nancy, Shalisa, and Marlene face the prospect of a future filled with financial ruin and loveless marriages. But when they discover their husbands took out massive life insurance policies, a new plan emerges… one that involves finding a hitman and cashing out.

The twist? Their husbands are also scheming—plotting a retirement escape plan of their own. But when things go sideways, both sides find themselves in a deadly game of cat and mouse, filled with betrayals, blunders, and unexpected body counts.
