The other night as I got into bed to do my before sleep reading, I was faced with this “Two of them were just babies. Captain Linda Turner had been a homicide detective for over ten years, but this crime scene was still a shock.” ---- and I closed the book. Wow-what a grab of … Continue reading Salvation Station by Kathryn Schleich

A combination of travelogue and memoir, this book gives the reader an inside view, not only of Kyrgyzstan but also the people and culture through the eyes of a young graduate student from Afghanistan.

The Demon Phone by Sean Erik
I was nicely surprised and a little creeped out by this free short story that the author offered for signing up to receive his newsletter. This is the kickoff to his series of Vince West.

This author did a nice job of taking you into … Continue reading Lucia’s War by Susan Lanigan
