pickA delightful novella in the time travel series, I really enjoyed this one set around Mallory's first Christmas in Victorian Edinburgh and showcasing Duncan's former love, Lady Inglis. Mallory and Duncan are asked to uncover the identity of a blackmailer and recover risqué love letters between Lady Inglis and a friend with benefits. The villain wants a payoff, or the letters will be released to the press. I loved that this storyline was a bit ?
pickI love Rebus. This didn‘t disappoint. However I had a hard time keeping track of who was who. But it was okay, it all worked out in the end and I understood it all. Loved the ending. 😊. The last sentence.

This was another good installment in the Inspector McLain series. I enjoy the police- procedural- with-a- smidge- of- the- supernatural aspect of these books.

The Future Future: great cover, very weird concept and terrible execution. Zero stars. I just flipped through the second half and it got weirder and weirder.

Her mummified body is hidden in the dark corner of a basement room, a room which seems to have been left untouched for decades. A room which feels as cold as the grave.
pickI'm really enjoying this series with its mix of authentic-feeling (to this non-cop) police procedural with supernatural elements. I like that Tony McLean 1) will not stop digging on a case until he gets the truth, even when that tenacity is detrimental to his career, 2) cares for the people on his team, 3) his response to the supernatural situations he finds himself in- a mixture of acceptance and exasperation- amuses me.
so-so
