A quick and fun read – great for a summer vacation… I’ve read a few books by Ashley Weaver, and have enjoyed them, but hadn’t read any in her Electra (Ellie) McDonnell series. So I was happy to receive a review copy of Locked in Pursuit, which is the fourth and most recent title. And

I bought Murder at the Brightwell, by Ashley Weaver, quite a long time ago, mostly because I really like historical murder mysteries. At the time, it seemed as if it might be the same sort of thing as Rhys Bowen’s Lady Georgie series, which I very much enjoy. But somehow it slipped toward the bottom

Back in the late 1990s and early 2000s, I enjoyed April Henry’s short 4-book Claire Montrose series. Claire is a DMV clerk in Oregon whose job is to vet vanity license plates, to make sure nothing too rude or nasty is allowed to slip through onto someone’s car. I remember these as kind of classic

Just buy it and read it – you’ll love it… Sanctuary opens humorously, with mysteriously missing Christmas cookies and eggnog. Although the protagonist, Roman, explains to us in detail why Santa can’t exist, perhaps he really does, and has made an unexpected visit? (Sadly for St. Nick fans, the explanation is more prosaic…) Things escalate

Don’t read this LOL-inducing book around other people… When I was offered a review copy of Dead Tired, I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. But what I found was a nicely plotted mystery with a lot of enjoyable moments of snark. I missed the first book in the series, during which, apparently, Alice’s group

Another Alex Delaware/Milo Sturgis book that’s a real treat… I came late to Jonathan Kellerman’s Alex Delaware books, based on a bad assumption on my part: that books featuring a psychologist as a protagonist would necessarily be psychological thrillers, which I’m generally not fond of. However, a few years ago, I was lucky enough to
