Belle Ruin 38 reviews Martha Grimes
NAL Trade, 2006
Pretty good as an audio book
I was looking for something to listen to during my long commutes, and thought I'd give this book a try, as I had liked Martha Grimes earlier Jury mysteries.

Hotel Paradise (Emma Graham Mysteries) 28 reviews Martha Grimes
Ballantine Books, 1997
A Kind of Paradise
