Welcome to Litsy!

As spring slowly emerging in rural King‘s Cove,a skeleton is found in Lane‘s neighbors‘ root cellar. What follows is yet another imaginative storyline that utilizes the bucolic setting to inform both the plot & sustain the readers engagement. There is the usual cast of quirky characters,who with each novel reveal increasingly more depth. The author also utilizes dialogue to reveal the psychological soul of these characters,enriching the novel.

Tonight reading with Em. #catsoflitsy 🐾

#BookReport - finished 6 books this week (somehow)! 2 were okay, but I really enjoyed the rest of them.

I‘m not even bothering with adding books for up next, since #currentlyreading 4 books! I really need to finish Choose Possibility by Wednesday, so I‘m hoping to read it all day Monday! #WeeklyForecast

Finished the 3rd book in the series today! #SeriesRead2022

I am really enjoying this series. This one was a cold case mystery, so it wasn‘t as high stakes as the other books have been. I also really enjoyed the progress Darling and Lane‘s relationship have made. Can‘t wait to read the next one.

#JoyousJanuary - Book 1 done

My love for this series continues to grow with this third venture. The bones of a child (dating back 30+ years) are discovered in the Hughes‘ root cellar after the roof collapses and Lane, as their neighbor and friend, calls in Inspector Darling and Ames to investigate the cold case. She assists by probing the memories of her neighbors about residents during that period (1910) before the war. The story is told both in current time and the time 🔻

Woke up to this lovely, white stuff. Good excuse to stay in my PJs and finish my book. This is book #3 of the Lane Winslow mystery series. Another good book. I love this character and am glad to see her love life pick up a bit.

A great Canadian murder mystery, creepy but with cozy mystery vibes

I really enjoy this series & the characters are very fun. The mystery in this one was pretty weak but I still enjoyed it mainly because of Lane‘s character. Some heavy handed discussion of women‘s rights as well which I could have done without. There is another one in this series which I am looking forward too but am going to take a bit of a break before I dive into it. Anyone else ever need to take a break from a series that they enjoy?

I‘m really loving this series! Great characters, great character interactions, and great mysteries. This one involves a “cold case”. I can‘t wait to read the next one! I voluntarily reviewed a copy provided by the publisher.

5⭐️ A 40 year old skeleton of a child is found buried in a root cellar. The quiet community of King‘s Cove is stunned. Lane calls Inspector Darling to help solve the mystery and put the bones to rest. As the community grapples with the idea a killer is among them, Darling begins to realize how invaluable Lane‘s former intelligence background is.
