Media Reviews
"Cassie Maltham is a damaged woman. As a child in Norfolk, she was traumatized when her cousin Suzie disappeared in front of her while they were running home to tea along a path known as the Greenway. Suzie was never found, and Cassie has suffered serious mental illness as a result. Years later, her husband, Fergus, is determined to cure her and takes her back to the village where it happened. While they are there, another child, who looks very like Suzie, disappears in exactly the same way. Soon, yet another is lost. On each occasion, Cassie herself was somewhere near the Greenway, unable to remember exactly why she went there or what she saw. The police, the villagers, her husband and even she herself begin to wonder whether she could have something to do with the disappearances. There is a lot of talk of the old stories of witches, ghosts, and gateways to fairy-land, once commonly believed in the area. Fergus' attempt at therapy begins to succeed. As the retired police officer who dealt with Suzie's case works with his successors to discover what really happened to the missing children, they unearth a yet earlier case of the same sort. Cassie's mental block begins to dissolve; her nightmares produce useful information, and eventually her psychiatrist elicits a crucial fact under hypnosis." -- Alev Adil

Bad Medicine
by Aimee Thurlo
A politically sensitive murder drops Ella Clah and her Navaho tribe's medical examiner into deadly danger. The dead woman is the daughter of a powerful Senator.

The Shaman's Bones
by James D. Doss
A Native American woman is savagely--and ritually--murdered in an out-of-the-way corner of Wyoming, outside the jurisdiction of Police Chief Scott Parris and tribal policeman Charlie Moon. But a brutal attack by the suspected killer on one of Parris deputies-- and the unsettling visions of Charlie's shaman aunt--get Moon and Parris involved in a hunt for a murderer that will uncover long-buried secrets of betrayals, tribal politics, and stolen Power.
Presence of Mind
by Fred Hunter
Chicago detective Jeremy Ransom can't find a link between a slew of murders--but sprightly septuagenarian Emily Charters can. She recognizes every victim reported in the newspaper from the audience the night she went to the theater. Trouble is, that makes her a target, too--and unless she gets to Jeremy in time, she may not live to explain her brilliant deduction.
A Philosophical Investigation
by Philip Kerr
A Philosophical Investigation is a gripping and thought-provoking thriller with a difference which takes the reader on a terrifying journey into the head of a serial killer and to the heart of murder itself. London in 2013 is a world of elaborate technology, aggression, and squalor, where serial murder has reached epidemic proportions and the government has created a test to screen people for a predisposition to violent criminality. Examined at random, a man is stunned to learn that he fits the model. Yet, when he breaks into the computer to erase his name and comes across the list of his "brothers", a horrifyingly logical idea begins to form in his mind: what if, to protect society, he became a killer of serial murderers? Inspector "Jake" Jacowicz must use all her powers of reason and intuition to track this extraordinary sociopath, code-named "Wittgenstein", who draws her into a diabolical cat-and-mouse game and engages her in a chilling "philosophical" dialogue about the nature of life itself. Philip Kerr has produced a deeply satisfying work of suspense which puts him in the front rank of writers in the genre.
Brunswick Gardens
by Anne Perry
In Londons affluent Brunswick Gardens, the battle over Charles Darwin's revolutionary theory of evolution intensifies as the respected Reverend Parmenter is boldly challenged by his beautiful assistant, Unity Bellwood--a "new woman" whose feminism and aggressive Darwinism he finds appalling.When Unity, three months pregnant, tumbles down the staircase to her death, superintendent Thomas Pitt is virtually certain that one of the three deeply devout men in the house committed murder. Could it have been the Reverend Parmenter, his handsome curate, or his Roman Catholic son? Pitt and his clever wife, Charlotte, refuse to settle for less than the truth--and justice. . . .
