Everything I said in my review of the first book, Thief of Souls, is still true. I like Inspector Lu and his integrity is solid. He is the point of view for our view into this unfamiliar country, China, its culture and politics. Lu cares about people and treats them with respect. He is not […]
The Rockton series has built a fantastic and riveting series arc, provided intense and intriguing murder mysteries along the way, and delivered a core group of characters who instilled deep reader love. Now, it is driving toward a climax that will hold us spellbound and keep us reading into the dark hours. The Deepest of […]
I have loved every one of the Rockton series. I would not try to read this as a standalone. The whole series is amazing and I highly recommend them. I listened to the whole series on audio, as I love Therese Plummer. Rockton is built on all kinds of secrets. The council has not shared […]
I absolutely have loved this Orphan X series. I LOVE Evan and his growth throughout the series. He is a support for the people at Castle Heights, especially Mia and Peter, and a parental figure, at least a caretaker for Joey. I hoped once he got his informal presidential “pardon,” he could go into security […]
I listened to the first two books in the Natalie Lockhart series but The Witching Tree doesn’t seem to be on audio yet. I was curious to see what would happen with Natalie. She has had a lot of big and dangerous cases ove the past year. She’s tired, grieving the loss of her sister, […]
I was excited to find a new book by this author because I remember enjoying the first one, Fallen Mountains a lot. The books are each standalone, totally unrelated. The mystery is not typical; it is more about the characters past and how they ended up where they are now. These Silent Woods was very […]
I was so happy to continue Two Rivers to see the characters and meet new ones. The foundation of the series is the characters in the police department along with their family and friends. The head of the team in Matthew, and his husband, Jonathon runs an art centre. There’s Jem who is a single […]
I am a fan of K-9 books, so I discovered this Mace Reid K-9 Mystery series. I got the first title, The Finders at the library and then requested this one to review. The beginning was a bit slow but it took off explosively. Mace has several dogs who are all human remains or cadaver dogs. […]
A family of expert safe crackers are set up, caught, and offered a deal to work for the British Secret Service. How could I pass up such an intriguing set up to a new series? I have been meaning to try this author’s older series for ages and got side tracked when this dazzling series […]
I’m a fan of police procedurals and investigations and settings in countries other than the United States. Thief of Souls was unexpected, being set in China. I enjoyed the unfamiliar country, culture and politics. I’m not knowledgeable enough to know if things are accurate, but they didn’t seem unbelievable. Inspector Lu Fei is our main […]
