waiting for library hold. Thanks!

Bones Never Lie/Kathy Reichs
I find her books to be uneven but this was a good one. Spoiler alert: very timely dna reveal.

The investigator/John Stanford
The book introduces Letty Davenport as kick ass operator.
Also timely plot of immigrants, militias, and hard times.

Next up:
The Left-Handed Twin/Thomas Perry
Jane Whitfield takes people ‘out of the world’. This time someone is on her trail.

Perry can write.
