One more day down
Jan. 24th, 2007 10:22 pmForgot at least one book in my last post. Gillian Bradshaw, The elixir of youth. ( I do wish she'd go back to writing classical novels. )
Dick Francis, 10lb Penalty. ( Father/son bonding. )
Reginald Hill, Ruling Passion. ( Peter and Ellie arrive for a weekend away with old college friends, and find three of them dead and the fourth missing. )
Reginald Hill, Exit Lines. ( Three elderly men die, but only after uttering last words that incriminate others - rightly or wrongly. )
Reginald Hill, Under World. ( Just after the miners’ strike. Ellie is teaching some of the miners on a day release program, while an old disappearance becomes important again. )
It's just struck me how many of the Dalziel and Pascoe books feature old crimes, and their contemporary after-effects. Will have to think about this.
