Scottish noir, and this one is definitely noir. Very grim but still the black humor is there front and center. I do enjoy the personal stories and admittedly inappropriate humor and byplay between the officers as they struggle to find answers and hold back their own horror.
#Roll100 @PuddleJumper Last Roll100 of the year!
Alison and Jenny McGregor‘s reality-TV dream has turned into a real-life nightmare when they‘re kidnapped. The ransom demand appears in all the papers, on TV, and internet. DS Logan McRae and his colleagues have nothing to go on: the kidnappers haven't left a single piece of forensic evidence. The investigation is going nowhere.
It looks as if the price of fame just got a lot higher…
pickI realised that the last time I read a logan macrae story was last easter but it won't be that long to get to the 8th book as they are so good combining humour with a lot of tension. Here an overnight celebrity mother and daughter are kidnapped, the Aberdeen police are on a countdown to find them whilst macrae deals with difficult bosses incl the brilliant di steele. Anyway i was on a crime spree book wise this weekend so another review to follow
1. Totally!! I give my friends great books I recommend and then tell them to pass the book along into the world !
2. I do change but I just won‘t read romance at all
3. Books , framed photos, candles, all sorts of stuff on my shelves
Oh, how I‘ve missed you, DS McRae. Crime mystery/police procedurals seem to be my go-to comfort reads. Especially the Scottish ones for some reasons. I‘ve become particularly fond of the Logan McRae series. I only read about one a year, but I caught myself this time being pretty excited to get started. #guiltypleasures
