Not what I expected in a good way. The genre stated Medical Fiction or Amature Sleuths. However, I see it more like an intense, above the norm cozy. There are characters you can wrap your brain around, modern issues, and occurrences with a touch of Old World charm. This book had enough science (easily explained), … Continue reading The Arms of Death (Loch Lonach Mystery Series: Book One) By Maggie Foster

A Death at Camp David by Harry A. Milman
Here is the 8th genre winner for the category of Thrillers in the Book Talk Radio Club Awards. There are a lot of questions in this book, which I think is a sign of a good mystery. Can a self-described suave toxicologist and a slovenly private investigator find out … Continue reading A Death at Camp David by Harry A. Milman
The Gilded King (Sovereign #1) by Josie Jaffrey
If you want to get totally lost in a book, this would be a good one to jump into. There are several main characters and all of them are very well developed. There are several plot lines running concurrently and they are also well developed. And that’s not all as there are several subplots that … Continue reading The Gilded King (Sovereign #1) by Josie Jaffrey

Ice On the Bay (#3 Howard County Mysteries) By Dale E. & Kathleen Lehman
This is the third in this series and the third book I have read by these authors. You see some of the books I read each month, but you don’t see the 6 or so that never make it to a blog or the ones I am proofreading or editing. So, if I keep … Continue reading Ice On the Bay (#3 Howard County Mysteries) By Dale E. & Kathleen Lehman
A Fateful Greed (Joe Robbins Book One) by Patrick Kelly
I had the pleasure of meeting this author at the Texas Book Festival. When I saw the cover, with the Pennybacker Bridge and it was set in my hometown of Austin, I knew I needed to give it a read. While all of that attracted me to the book, the story of Joe kept me … Continue reading A Fateful Greed (Joe Robbins Book One) by Patrick Kelly
The Druid of Death: A Sherlock Holmes Adventure by Richard Ryan
So glad to be part of Bits About Books Blog Tour for this wonderful book. While I enjoy Sherlock Holmes stories I must admit that I am more of a fan of a lot of the spin-off series. This one follows well and keeps to the characteristics of the true Sherlock Holmes series. The phrasing, … Continue reading The Druid of Death: A Sherlock Holmes Adventure by Richard Ryan
True Death (Howard County Mysteries #2) by Dale E. Lehman
This book picks up shortly after the first in the series ends. Familiar characters are back but in this book the author gives us a better understanding of Montufar & Dumas and their backgrounds. We also get a glimpse into the life of Peller and his wife. I really enjoyed the side plot of the … Continue reading True Death (Howard County Mysteries #2) by Dale E. Lehman
