A review of The Silversmith’s Puzzle by Nev March – recently pubished

Another wonderful trip through the melting pot of old Bombay.   I was lucky enough to have a review copy of Nev March’s first Jim Agnihotri/Diana Framji story, Murder in Old Bombay, back before it was even clear – to me, at least – whether this would be a series.   And I loved that book, but

A review of The Mummy of Mayfair by Jeri Westerson – just published

A fun airplane or beach book… I tend to think of Jeri Westerson as an author of historical mysteries set in medieval England, since I’ve read and enjoyed many books in her Crispin Guest and Will Somers series.   But I’m aware that she writes in other genres too, and was interested to learn that she
