My Current Interest

And the series goes on…                 This time, witch Lily Ivory is asked by the police to help with an investigation.   A dead body has been found in an apartment filled with all sorts of superstitions.   Knowing Lily’s talents, Inspector Carlos Romero wants her thoughts on the situation, but nothing much further than that.   Lily, on the other hand, ends up with other ideas.                 When Lily’s friend Bronwyn starts to become distant, Lily finds it very strange.   New to having friends, and not sure what to do, Lily goes to Bronwyn’s apartment to find out what is the matter.   What she discovers is that Bronwyn’s son-in-law is in trouble, and that trouble may have to do with the body that was found.                 Wa...

Image provided by Sourcebooks.                  I stayed up far too late reading this book.   Found on the Bas Bleu website, at one point I reached a lull in the story where all I wanted was for something to finally happen.   Then all of a sudden, the story changed and all I wanted was to see what was going to happen next.                 Kate Warne is a widow looking to become the very first female agent of the Pinkerton Agency.   Answering a newspaper ad, Kate is not at all what Allan Pinkerton was expecting to walk through his door.   His instinct is to turn Kate away, but Kate won’t have that.   Instead, she convinces Pinkerton to give her a chance.   She takes on a case to prove she can get results.   That she does, and Pinkerton is impressed, despite another agent, Tim Bellamy, tryin...

               Usually I suck up every word of the Meg Langslow Mystery books pretty much the moment I get them.   With Gone Gull I had a bit of a hard time getting into the story.   I blame that on tennis , though.   Because the moment I put it on mute, I did not want to put this book down.                       Blacksmith Meg Langslow is helping her grandmother, Cordelia, run an arts and crafts center she has just opened.   Teaching one of the classes herself, Meg has convinced other artists she knows to become teachers as well.   Members of her extensive family are also on site, helping out in various capacities, as they always do.                 Despite the close connection of many of those working at the ...
