Best reads - Club Together Book Club?

Never heard of the author or his character. Will have to keep my eyes open when I next visit a charity shop.

Must admit he's bypassed me to this point but as I enjoyed the book I've already picked up an "Easy" book to read to see if I like it.

The one off was set in New York and I think the Easy bokks are set in LA. 

Today only (2 Nov)  on Amazon's Daily Deals - Peter May's The Lewis Trilogy and a couple of his other titles at 99p per book by Kindle download.

I thoroughly enjoyed book 1 of the trilogy as I mentioned in an earlier post. A good detective story not dissimilar to Peter Robinson or Ann Cleeves.

trellis - Have requested the 'spy and the traitor' from our library after reading up about it on internet where it intimates that at the time of researching for the book the chap was living England.  If so I feel he's more than likely a little concerned after this year's Salisbury 'Incident'.  Am looking forward to reading it .

I've just discovered this section:what a good idea!

I am a big Phil Rickman fan and have read all his novels and recommend them to anyone who likes intelligent tales of the supernatural without the gore!

I'm after some recommendations: I've enjoyed all of the early novels of Barbara Erskine and Philipa Gregory but have found their later works dull and predictable. I also enjoy Daphne Du Maurier's work.

Can anyone suggest something in the historical/mystery genre? Not C J Sansom though,  I've tried the Shardlake books and just can't get into them.

I'm currently reading Ann Cleeves' Vera and Shetland novels and am enjoying them far more than the tv series.

I heartily recommend the Elly Griffiths 'Ruth Galloway' novels: a mystery solving female archaeologist with a druid friend and a police detective 'will they -won't they' love interest. Her writing style is very similar to Phil Rickman's.

I'm looking forward to the Radio 4 book at bedtime 10.45 pm next week, Adrian Mole, The Wilderness Years...if I can stay awake.

Just read The Big Short by Michael Lewis, saw the film awhile back. Thanks to these guys we nearly saw the end of our banking system, a ghastly but riveting tale.

Missed this post but fortunately I've already read the Lewis Trilogy, and have now just got the first of his new Hebredian series. I've just finish a stand alone one of his too, I'll Keep you Safe.

thebells, have you tried any of the L J Ross books, starting with Holy Island. They are all set in Northumberland, around actual places. Faith Martin has a series of detective novels set in Oxfordshire, starting with Murder on the Oxford Canal.

They had I’ll Keep You Safe at 99p a few days before the others appeared on. I’ve downloaded it.

They've got 4 of Damien Boyd's at £1 each as well but I’ve read the whole series now.

It pays to watch the Daily Deals, I find. I grab them when they appear and read them later. 

OH has all the Damian Boyd's too. She looks every morning at the daily deals, and especially like the free ones!
