Careless in Red: A Novel 130 reviews Elizabeth George
Harper, 2008
Thomas Lynley continues his journey
+ Careless in Red
....metaphorically speaking.
This is a first for George. As with all of her stories featuring Thomas Lynley there is a crime which must be solved, but in this case the crime is really incidental to the main thrust of the story, which is Lynley's journey (both physically and emotionally ...

The Black Path 8 reviews Asa Larsson
Delta, 2008
An amazing series of novels -- but I wouldn't call them police procedurals
+ A Tangled Web

One Good Turn: A Novel 60 reviews Kate Atkinson
Back Bay Books, 2007
"Boxes within boxes, dolls within dolls, worlds within worlds..."
+ annoy-ing hyph-ens
In the second of her Jackson Brodie series (after Case Histories: A Novel and before When Will There Be Good News?: A Novel), Kate Atkinson creates a series of bizarre characters, all involved with murder--either planning it, committing it, or trying to avoid it. Many seemingly unrelated ...
