When a doctor is murdered, Dr. Alex Delaware gets involved because the only witness seems to be a 7 year old. He tries to unlock her terrible memories. It gets dangerous and he gets more involved than he means to. ~ Karen S.
Olivia Belgrave is trying to earn her living as a lady detective in 1920's England. She is called to investigate a mystery involving Egyptian relics and a possible murder in the midst of London's high society. Fun cozy mystery. ~ Mary R.
An intriguing story about the relationship between two brothers in a small Norwegian village. A perfect blend of mystery, family dysfunction, and small town life. ~ Tara J.
A story centered on race, long held secrets, love, and murder. Following the murders of a black man and white woman in a small Texas town, Texas Ranger Darren investigates the motive and possible connection between the two. I was pleasantly surprised to have enjoyed this book. I hadn't anticipated the ending, and was glad that it didn't end neatly packaged/"happily ever afterish." Highly recommend and will be reading more from Attica Locke. ~ Mary T.
