Who's Killing the Old Bank Robbers: Old Guys Murder Mystery #3 Kindle Edition

by Jon Spoelstra (Author) Format: Kindle Edition
4.5 out of 5 stars 332 ratings
You probably have not met a bank robber before now.

The bank robber I’m talking about pulled off the biggest bank robbery in American history.

Thirty-eight million dollars.

The FBI caught him, of course. But the Feds never recovered the loot.

Now the bank robber (visualize Clint Eastwood) is being released from a long stint in prison. As you would expect, a lot of folks (mostly unsavory) want to meet up with him to discuss one thing. Where’s the cash?

Charlie North, our septuagenarian amateur sleuth featured in Who’s Killing All My Old Girlfriends, is right in the middle of it all.

There are surprises, revelations, more murders, and a wild finish at The Salton Sea that you couldn’t guess in a million years.

This is a fast read. Old guys like things fast.

WARNING: Don’t buy this book if you feel uncomfortable laughing out loud every so often. If you’re looking for a gritty crime thriller, this is NOT that type of book. Seriously, laughing is good.

Get it now.


This is the third in the series of Old Guys Murder Mystery series.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

I’m still trying to get my head around the fact that ‘Take Out’ can mean food, dating, or murder.

Somewhere squishing around that thought, I write murder mysteries about old guys solving murders. If you’re under 40, you should pass on these novels. Wait at least ten years, then you’ll enjoy and appreciate them more.

If, however, you’re over 50, these mysteries might hit your sweet spot, well worth the try.

I’m a Wall Street Journal best-selling author, having written nine novels and four non-fiction books. The Old Guys Murder Mystery series has been, by far, the most fun.

The Old Guys Murder Mystery books are fast reads. Old guys like things fast.

    All the chapters start with a quote on getting old--Betty Davis, Terry Pratchett, Noel Coward, etc. This added to the book's depth. It also gave impact to the everyday enjoyment of pleasure, a golf game, looking for the best golf course. All the things they enjoyed.

    While the mystery was well done, the personalities were terrific.

    I began The Old Guys Murder Mysteries with #3, but I'll be reading the first-in-series next. Who's Killing the Old Bank Robbers can be easily read as a standalone novel. Narrated in the first person by Charlie, a 70+ newspaper columnist, the style is relaxed, laconic and most enjoyable. Full of twists and turns, the story of Charlie's investigation will keep you guessing right up to the end.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Once again, a very fun read.
    Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2023

    Although the story was moving and I knew the author was building the plot, this book didn’t seem to move as fast as the previous two. The last 1/4 to 1/3 took off and the ending was not only surprising, but surprisingly satisfying. I had been thinking, “Nah, there won’t be a repeat of Valentine’s Day.” Plus the way the author “solved” the murders was wonderful, and unforeseen by me.

    It may be due to my being an “old guy” but each story has a very comfortable feeling, not unlike an old sweatshirt. Charlie is very relatable as the center of each story, perhaps because his character is so consistent. I also very much appreciate how “the story “ is always at the center, and not an agenda. Everything that does involve an “issue” has a response that fits the character and is not dwelt upon. For instance, if a retired cop is ok with “defunding the police” I am closing your book and moving on, not soon to return.

    I have prattled on long enough. It is on to book 4!! Between the “WHO’s Killing….” books, and Bill O’Reilly’s “Killing…..” books, death is at the very front of my reading list these days. Not sure if that is a good idea for an “old guy”.

    Nothing exciting or mysterious. Charlie is supposed to be investigating the murders of old bank robbers but it's more a story about him getting along with the brothers. He didn't really solve the murders, the murderers just confessed. I won't be reading anymore, it was just too boring.

    Enjoyable story, well written murder mystery story in a series! This is book 3 in the series. The author shamelessly mentions the other 2 books a good few times - and that you can buy on Amazon - but fair play to him! This is a good story with nice characters that you enjoy learning and caring about! Why wouldn't you read the others???
