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.
I made a couple Winter spiders for the upcoming craft fair while listening to a chapter or two
pickI realised I took this last Fri night and forgot to post but a return to the library found me returning to an old favourite in now DCI McLean whose investigations always have a supernatural element to them but done with great storytelling. Here a djinn appears to be stalking the Edinburgh streets and McLean with problems at home is on its tail.
so-soSecond last read for the year. Ending a bit disappointing. Certainly not , a least for me, the new Ian Rankin.
Positive point is that it kept me going to the end. Though not a fast read for me. @MrsMalaprop
Cold as the Grave: Inspector McLean 9 | 
As a rowdy demonstration makes its slow and vocal way along Edinburgh's Royal Mile, Detective Chief Inspector Tony McLean's team are on stand-by for any trouble. The newly promoted McLean is distracted, inexplicably drawn to a dead-end mews street... and a door, slightly ajar, which leads to this poor girl's final resting place. 2w
But how long has she been there, in her sleep of death? The answers are far from what McLean or anyone else could expect. The truth far more chilling than a simple cold case...
This is the 9th book of the series. It is a cold case of a mummified girl with plenty of twists, turns and supernatural elements. 2w
