Susan Ryeland Moonflower Murders by Anthony Horowitz

 

One of the best talented authors that Great Britain has created for modern times.  This is a very smart book.  I love the novel inside the novel.  There are clues if you can find them, sort of like Easter Eggs.  I found some of the clues but so many layers and connections.  A really good book if you a re a murder mystery fan.  If I could have a author's dinner party,  It would be a lot of authors, including Horowitz.

A beautiful story.  If you are a fan of Jane Austen,  it meshes beautiful with Pride and Prejudice.  Favorite characters are brought back.  The story moves forward about two years after, the marriage of Jane and Lizzy.  Lizzy has a little boy, cousin Charlotte has moved into their old home, with a baby as well.  Mary has given up love but at each home she stays, she sees the different ways marriages work or don't work.  When she finally reaches London, with her aunt and uncle showering her with love and kindness, Mary comes in to her own.  And then Caroline Bingly shows up and spreads her special barbs.  An excellent read and a good audio book.  Enjoy.

 

Stalking Jack the Ripper Capturing The Devil by Kerri Maniscalco

One sexy murder mystery.  The series is great.  Rather Gothic tone.  Fine for teens but there is one or two mature scenes.   Lots of build up in rising action to one suspenseful conclusion.
