Another intriguing and confusing addition to the series. Confusing, in a good way, as you're never sure what will happen next. Lots of character development for Lynly and Havers as well.

My #bookhaul from the library today.
Do I have 4 books I'm in the middle of? Yes.
Do I have 2 successive books to read afterwards? Also, yes.
Do I regret bringing home another stack? Absolutely not. 😂
pickThis is becoming a favourite series, and in book 4, poe is dragged from the court case about his house to assist Mi5 in an investigation set around a world leader summit in Cumbria. As poe and Tilly Bradshaw are drawn into a Web of intrigue, the mystery goes into events in Iraq 20 years earlier. This was my weekend reading and a definite page turner.
pickDS Washington Poe returns in the fourth book of the series. The case of a man found beaten to death in a backstreet brothel in Carlisle pulls Poe & Tilly away from almost certain victory in Poe's court case fight to keep his home. It seems that they have been specifically requested by higher powers (MI5) to investigate the case, but as they are drawn deeper into the investigation, it becomes clear that someone is putting roadblocks in their way.
pickBeautifully written, atmospheric read that paints a vivid picture of a small village and what happens when modernity and progress come calling. It‘s a story about passion, forbidden love, family, and consequences. The pace is slow, the writing occasionally dense but I found myself drawn into the character‘s lives and the anxiety of knowing that everything is about to change and none of it is in your control. A wonderful book.
Today‘s portable reading…

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it, I just do. Some will be old, some will be new. Don‘t judge me - I have a lot of books. Join in if you want!

pickP4: The last 40 years on the land were revolutionary and disrupted all that had gone before for thousands of years—a radical and ill-thought-through experiment that was conducted on our fields.
pickOddly named detective, Washington Poe, & the National Crime Agency (NCA) have mutually turned their backs on each other following an incident on Poe's last case. He is reluctantly brought back into the fold when the third victim of a serial killer is found with Poe's name carved into his chest. The victims are being burned alive in old stone circles in Cumbria & as yet, the police are nowhere near catching the killer. (continued)
For fans of MW Craven😱… I don‘t know how I feel about this because he has quickly become a top 5 favorite author of mine and we know how Hollywood can mess up a good book. 😂
