This is the 3rd book in the Cornwall Murder Mystery. It was a very enjoyable read and I loved the Cornish setting. The main characters DI Lauren Pengally and DS Matt Price work very well together and I really liked watching how their friendship is growing.

EadieB Sophie Yates is a young fisherwoman who is found dead on the rocks with a fishing line tied around her neck and a poem in her mouth with the words: "Men must work and women must weep." Soon another body is found and the team is eager to get this solved before it turns into a serial killing. This fast-paced story had many twists and turns until finally the murder is solved. 9h

EadieB This book is a well-written police procedural and kept me guessing until the very surprised ending. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. If you like a gripping crime thriller then you would love this book. I haven't read any other books in the series but this book worked well as a standalone. 9h

TheSpineView Fantastic! 8h

EadieB
Former basketball star Myron Bolitar has barely restarted his agency for sports stars and celebrities when two federal agents walk into his office, asking for answers. Assuming they want to talk about the highly publicized Callister murders—of which he and Win know nothing, other than what's been saturating the news lately—he's stunned when, instead, they demand to know where Greg Downing is. 2d

EadieB
Greg, a former NBA player-turned-beloved-coach, was an old client of Myron‘s, one of his very first. The reason for Myron's surprise is simple: Greg Downing died three years ago.
But according to these federal agents, Greg is still alive—and somehow involved in the Callister case.
Before his death, Greg made some strange money moves, but nothing about his reappearance makes any sense. 2d

EadieB As Myron and Win investigate, they're also surprised to uncover a seemingly related case where someone was murdered. Then another. And another. Is Greg alive? And if he is, where is he? And ultimately, are they looking for Greg? Or are they looking for a dangerously clever serial killer? 2d

This is the 12th book in the series. It is a fast-paced action packed story with twist after twist. It has an intriguing plot with characters that we have been following throughout the series. The whole gang is back, Myron, Win, Esperanza, Big Cyndi, Terese and Ellen. Federal agents show up and want to know where Greg Downing is. Myron and Win told them that Greg has been dead for three years. 2d

EadieB The ending was quite a surprise and I won't spoil it but you have to promise me that you will read this book. If you like surprised endings in you crime thrillers than you will love this book. I'm looking forward to the next book from Harlan Coben as I think he is a great writer. 2d

Cold as the Grave: Inspector McLean 9 | James Oswald

#ColdAsTheGrave #JamesOswald #BookSpinBingo #SeriesLove2024 #May2024

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.

EadieB
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. 2d

EadieB
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. 2d

EadieB It is a fast-paced page turner of refugees and how they are treated. Tony is promoted to Chief Inspector which doesn‘t allow time on the street but Tony decides to investigate anyway. It has great characters and plot that has pushed Tony and Emma to their limits as Tony seems to get lost in his job and forgets to pay attention to Emma. Madame Rose and Mrs. Saifre return to the story. It is one dark and gritty book that you just have to read. 2d

“People always craved power - that was a constant of humanity, a truer rule than any law of physics. If they weren‘t given power, they took it. And however lofty and moral their foundational creed, people historically did not choose to give it away.”

A Japanese horror movie from 1977. A wild experimental mix of styles, original & totally bonkers. You wonder what drugs the whole staff were on while making this.
Certainly gruesome, creepy & slasher in parts, it's visionary, dramatic and also quite feminist for its time.
First and foremost, a hilarious haunted house movie.
