Olhando Por Cima do Ombro

Só porque você é paranoico, não significa que eles não estejam atrás de você

As coisas estavam indo muito bem para Abe. Apesar de suas lutas passadas com doença mental, ele estava em um casamento feliz, tinha três filhos maravilhosos, uma bela casa e uma fantástica empresa de consultoria que satisfazia sua criatividade e trazia uma boa renda para a família.

Mas nunca se pode ficar muito confortável. Quando Abe se torna o principal suspeito de um roubo de jóias – um dos maiores e mais bem-sucedidos roubos de jóias da história – sua esquizofrenia se torna incontrolável e tudo começa a sair dos trilhos. A investigação particular de Abe fez os ladrões começarem a segui-lo de perto… mas será que eles realmente estão atrás dele ou será que Abe está perdendo a batalha contra as vozes de sua cabeça?

Vampire Vendettas & Glittering Gems in Diamonds and Daggers

Searching for the perfect Father’s Day gift for your literary dad? Check out my Father’s Day Gift Guide and pick up a thrilling read for Dad this weekend. There’s no better way to show appreciation for the dads who read than by gifting them a captivating story.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

Diamonds and Daggers, Book 11 of the Vampire Knitting Club by Nancy Warren is a fun read. I have read a few other books in the Vampire Knitting Club series, and they are always enjoyable. I love the idea of the vampire knitting club that Lucy “inherited” from her grandmother along with the knitting shop she now runs. I love Nyx, her kitten familiar, and Hester, the grumpy goth ghost.

Vampire Sylvia, a former classical TV actress, imposes upon Lucy to wear her priceless (or about $10 million) Cartier jewels to a gala event, setting events in motion that result in the theft of the jewels and a murder, and Lucy is desperate to solve the mystery and get the jewels back before Sylvia shreds her. Hilarity ensues.

If anything went wrong, I didn’t want a vampire as powerful as Sylvia holding a grudge.

Nancy Warren, Diamonds and Daggers

Summary

Missing jewels, a witch’s dagger and murder… Just a regular day at Cardinal Woolsey’s Knitting and Yarn shop in Oxford.

When glamorous vampire Sylvia discovers a movie company is remaking one of her most famous silent films, she’s determined to get some creative input and decides to make knitting shop owner Lucy the beneficiary of her estate. Lucy will front for Sylvia in dealing with the movie executives who want to recreate the priceless Cartier jewels made specially for the original movie and still owned by Sylvia.

Meanwhile, Lucy’s moving along in her witch’s training. It’s time to choose her own athame, a dagger that she’ll use for spells. With all that going on she’s barely got time to run a knitting shop, never mind solve another murder.

This is book 11 in the Vampire Knitting Club. From a USA Today bestselling author, these stories are cozy, clean, with quirky characters, a too-smart cat, and lots of magic and mayhem. Each can be read alone.

Father’s Day Gift Guide: Captivating Stories For The Bookworm Dad

What better time than Father’s Day to honor and appreciate dads and the special men who have shaped our lives with love, wisdom, and unwavering support? There’s no better way to show appreciation for the dads who read than by gifting them a captivating story.

Books have the unique ability to transport us to different worlds, offer new perspectives, and provide relaxation amidst our busy lives. In this spirit, I’d like to suggest two of my books that make great Father’s Day gifts for the literary dads out there:

She Wore Mourning (Zachary Goldman Mysteries PI series)

For dads who enjoy diving into intricate mysteries and thrilling investigations, “She Wore Mourning,” the first book in my Zachary Goldman Mysteries PI series, is an excellent choice. The story follows private investigator Zachary Goldman as he navigates a new case while wrestling with his own personal demons. With its realistic details and deep characterization, this novel promises an engrossing experience that will keep readers on the edge of their seats. Perfect for fathers who enjoy unraveling suspenseful plots and immersing themselves in richly woven narratives. A thrilling read you can gift this Father’s Day.

Stand Alone (10th Anniversary Edition)

If your dad prefers thought-provoking literature that tackles serious social issues with sensitivity and depth, consider gifting “Stand Alone,” now available in a special 10th-anniversary edition with an eye-catching new cover that draws readers in even before they turn the first page and beautiful formatting. This YA novel explores themes of resilience, identity, and overcoming adversity—universal themes that resonate deeply regardless of age. The compelling narrative makes it a read that fathers can appreciate not just for its storytelling but also for its emotional impact.

As we celebrate Father’s Day this year, let’s take a moment to express gratitude for all that our dads—or father figures—have done for us. A heartfelt message combined with one (or both!) of these books could be just the way to show how much you care.

To all the reading dads out there—Happy Father’s Day!

Humor and Heart in David Rosenfelt’s “Holy Chow”

I’ve got a lot of good stuff coming in June. In the meantime, why don’t you pick up a copy of Shattered to Death, the latest Kenzie Kirsch Medical Thriller? As Kenzie Kirsch delves into the mysterious death of a patient, she stumbles upon illicit human experiments preying on the most vulnerable. The exploitation of those seeking solace and healing is a chilling reality Kenzie cannot ignore.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

I have just started Holy Chow, by David Rosenfelt, book 25 of The Andy Carpenter mystery series, but I have read several other Andy Carpenter books, which assures me that I’m in for an enjoyable read.

Andy Carpenter, the reluctant lawyer with a knack for solving mysteries, is a brilliantly crafted character. His wit and reluctance to get involved make him both relatable and entertaining. The supporting cast who help him with his investigations are equally engaging and add depth to the narrative. And of course it is populated with Tara, Lion, and the other pooches.

I’m looking forward to seeing how Andy navigates this latest case with his usual mix of humor, intelligence, and determination. Whether you’re a long-time fan or new to the series, Holy Chow is sure to be a satisfying read for anyone who enjoys a good mystery.

The reading of the will is tomorrow at our office at ten A.M. I’ve been notifying the beneficiaries, and you are apparently one of them.

David Rosenfelt, Holy Chow

Summary

Retired lawyer Andy Carpenter’s calling has always been running the Tara Foundation. The dog rescue organization places hundreds of dogs in new homes every year. It’s added up to so many dogs and new owners that Andy can’t even do the math. But there’s one dog—and one owner—Andy will always remember.

About a year ago, Rachel Morehouse came to the foundation looking for a companion. In her sixties and recently widowed, Rachel wanted a senior dog that also needed someone. Andy took a liking to her, Rachel took a liking to Lion, an older Chow Chow, and the rest is history.

That is, until Rachel calls Andy begging for a favor: If Rachel dies, will Andy take care of Lion if her stepson cannot? Andy agrees, no questions asked, and promptly forgets about it… until he receives a call from Rachel’s estate to attend her will reading. Which is where he meets Rachel’s stepson, Tony, who is promptly arrested for his stepmother’s murder. And he wants Andy to prove his innocence.

Andy has continued to learn more about the woman he so greatly admired and the businesses she ran, and holy chow, was this woman impressive. The person who killed her deserves to be held accountable, and if Tony is to be believed, they’re still out there. And that possibility is too much for Andy to remain on the sidelines.

I always love reading a new book in Louise Penny’s Inspector Gamache series. In book 18, A World of Curiosities, Penny once again weaves a masterful tale that entangles readers in a web of intricate plotlines.

This time, we see threads converging from various sources and experiences in Gamache’s past, reaching back to his initial encounter with Jean-Guy Beauvoir and even further beyond the creation of the beloved Three Pines community.

What do a 16th-century painting and a lost-and-now-found grimoire have to do with the death of a woman ruled as suicide and the two children Gamache tried to help ten years earlier? And where is it all leading to? (I can’t tell you for sure, as it is all still coming into focus at this point in the story!)

With each turn of the page, readers are transported not only into a thrilling murder investigation but also into the intricate layers of Gamache’s personal history, the diverse characters of Three Pines, the stories and poems that Gamache loves, and a thoughtful consideration of misogyny and how it has affected Canadian lives in the past and still does in the present.

She lived, it seemed, at the place where the river Styx narrowed.

Louise Penny, A World of Curiosities

Summary

Chief Inspector Armand Gamache returns in the eighteenth book in #1 New York Times bestseller Louise Penny’s beloved series.

It’s spring and Three Pines is reemerging after the harsh winter. But not everything buried should come alive again. Not everything lying dormant should reemerge.

But something has.

As the villagers prepare for a special celebration, Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir find themselves increasingly worried. A young man and woman have reappeared in the Sûreté du Québec investigators’ lives after many years. The two were young children when their troubled mother was murdered, leaving them damaged, shattered. Now they’ve arrived in the village of Three Pines.

But to what end?

Gamache and Beauvoir’s memories of that tragic case, the one that first brought them together, come rushing back. Did their mother’s murder hurt them beyond repair? Have those terrible wounds, buried for decades, festered and are now about to erupt?

As Chief Inspector Gamache works to uncover answers, his alarm grows when a letter written by a long dead stone mason is discovered. In it the man describes his terror when bricking up an attic room somewhere in the village. Every word of the 160-year-old letter is filled with dread. When the room is found, the villagers decide to open it up.

As the bricks are removed, Gamache, Beauvoir and the villagers discover a world of curiosities. But the head of homicide soon realizes there’s more in that room than meets the eye. There are puzzles within puzzles, and hidden messages warning of mayhem and revenge.

In unsealing that room, an old enemy is released into their world. Into their lives. And into the very heart of Armand Gamache’s home.
