James Lee Burke – The Glass Rainbow – A Dave Robicheaux Mystery
Like any other late in the series book, it basically repeats itself.
David Rosenfelt – Dog Tags
Lawyer Andy Carpenter tries to save dog thus help owner in unimpressive mystery novel
Ron Chudley – Act of Evil – A Hal Bannatyne Mystery
The right elements are present in this mystery but a tighter focus would have made a more effective and entertaining story.
Ian Rankin – Bleeding Hearts
An assassin is set up on a hit and investigates who set him up
Douglas Preston Lincoln Child – Fever Dream – A Pendergast mystery
Very good thriller, less weird than the usual Preston & Child novel
Laurence Shames – Florida Straits
Enjoyable lightweight crime caper
