A Conspiracy of Bones by Kathy Reichs is the nineteenth novel in the Temperance Brennan mystery series. A media hungry medical examiner, an unusual death, and Temperance’s insatiable curiosity bring danger.
The Long Goodnight by Selene Charles is the second audiobook in the Grimm Chronicles featuring Detective Elle; formally Ariel of Triton, and her partner Maddox (the Mad Hatter). A ball, an ex-risen from the dead and a gang of thieves made for an intense listen.
Two Girls Down by Louisa Luna is the first Alice Vega mystery-thriller and after reading The Janes, I had to come back to the beginning to see how Max and Alice began working together. Fast-paced and intense, these two make the perfect PI partners as they search for two missing girls.
The Tenant by Katrine Engberg delivers a gritty police procedural that was thrilling and suspenseful. Perfect for fans of Nordic thrillers and the first to be translated in the Kørner/Werner series featuring Copenhagen police detectives; Jeppe Korner and Anette Werner. Grab your coffee we’ve got a murder to solve.
I am always looking for something a little different when I make my selections for the HoHoHo Readathon. Some years I slip in a horror but this year, Shamus Dust by Janet Roger crossed my desk. A murder-mystery that begins in the wee hours of Christmas morning.
