A Dark And Twisted Tide is the latest book in the Lacey Flint series by the author Sharon Bolton (aka S.J. Bolton). While it’s not the last book in the series, apparently we will have to wait for quite some time before we get a 5th installment (sigh). Lacey Flint is a police officer with…
Like This Forever (also called Lost in other editions) is the third book in the Lacey Flint series by S. J. Bolton (aka Sharon Bolton). It’s been a while since I’ve read it, but a quick trip down memory lane brought it all fresh to my mind. Which is a good sign, since pity the…
Dead Simple is the first book in the Roy Grace crime mystery / thriller series by the British author Peter James. I have a couple of books in the series at home, but since I didn’t get a chance to read the first book until now, I left them untouched on a shelf in the…
At less than 100 pages If Snow Hadn’t Fallen is a rather short novella in the Lacey Flint crime series by S. J. Bolton. The story picks up shortly (I think about a week) after the events in Now You See Me, which was the first book in the series featuring a range of gruesome…
Death Bed is the 4th DI Geraldine Steel book by Leigh Russell. I usually don’t start a book anywhere but at the first in the series, however as I joined the book tour for this author’s novel, there wasn’t enough time to read the previous 3 books. I also didn’t know what to expect, this…

Blood on the Tongue is the third book by the British mystery author Stephen Booth. First, let me tell you that this is not a fast-paced story like we’re used to reading from American authors. In this respect it is a typical British mystery where the pace is very slow with lots of descriptions which in…
Judas Goat – The Kennet Narrow Boat Mystery by Patrick Brigham is one of the two mystery novels published by the author this year. When I have received a request to review the book and also interview the author, I agreed for a couple of reasons. While the author was born in England, he has…
When I got a request to read and review Doyle After Death by John Shirley, I jumped at the opportunity without knowing anything about the book because it was clear that the story was about Arthur Conan Doyle and possibly his beloved character, Sherlock Holmes. I really really love the writings of A.C. Doyle and…
I’ve literally finished reading The Edwin Drood Murders about half an hour ago and I still have a big smile on my face. Strange right? I mean it’s a murder mystery, how can it make me smile? Well, for one, that’s the nature of cozies – even murders and the hunt for the killers are…
