Dark Water by Robert Bryndza My rating: 4 of 5 stars I have read all of Robert Bryndza's Erika Foster series in a week and really enjoyed them.

British Manor Murder (Lucy Stone Mystery 23) by Leslie Meier
British Manor Murder by Leslie Meier My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book makes for pleasant enough reading, but it's more like an insight into English country life with the inconvenience of a couple of bodies than a full-blown murder mystery. The characters are ok, if a little thin, and it is well-written, but… Continue reading British Manor Murder (Lucy Stone Mystery 23) by Leslie Meier
