Weekly Reading Round-Up
Happy Friday, all! And happy Halloween! This week, I’ve been on a Simone St. James binge, starting with her second contemporary, The Sun Down Motel, which goes back and forth between the 1980s and the present day in the very haunted town of Fell, NY, before going back to her post World War I set…

Happy Friday, all! This week started off with Alix Harrow’s Starling House, in which an orphan struggling to make ends meet for her younger brother discovers an unexpected legacy in the creepy house on the outskirts of their town where she takes a job as housekeeper for the reclusive owner. But this house isn’t just…

Happy Friday, all! I will be honest: I really didn’t think I was going to like the new Miss Marple, Murder at the Grand Alpine Hotel. I have bounced hard off previous Golden Age revivals, including Jill Paton Walsh’s Wimseys (and I love Paton Walsh’s Imogen Quy!). The reboots just always feel… off, somehow. The…

Happy Friday, all! So many excellent new books this week! (Courtesy of two very long back to back flights to and from Arizona.) I started with the new Claire Mackintosh, It’s Not What You Think, which was just as twisty as it sounds. I loved her DI Ffion Morgan mysteries (for my fellow devotees of…

Read MoreWHAT HAPPENS AT NIGHTFALL is here!!
Who would have imagined that a chance invitation from my editor to visit her husband’s family’s mausoleums at Green-Wood would lead to months of exploring historic Green-Wood Cemetery, reading up on demonology (it’s amazing what comes up when you Google “how to get rid of demons?”), and an entirely unplanned diversion into writing a Spooky…
