When we read Iron Lake (Cork O'Connor, #1) I really enjoyed it and think William Kent Krueger would be a good addition to our Focus candidates.

[Barbara K]

Great additions! Val McDermid is a new fave and Tony Hillerman is one of my all time favorites. Would love to vote for either - or Parker.

Just read Wayward Shot, by Joan Havelange cozy mystery with golfing in a rural setting. Tons of humour. With lots of interesting characters.

I would like to get back to Michael Connelly I hate starting a series and only reading a certain amount. I'm the type of person that reads things in order and I dont like skipping. Just my two cents.

[Kathleen]

I thought of focusing on Daphe duMauria. If someone has already suggested her I apologize.

Linda the Focus on Michael Connelly Project was brought to a close due to dwindling participation.

In an effort to get more participation, what if we focused on a group of authors or books, for example, authors of locked room mysteries, romantic mysteries, humorous mysteries, food-related mysteries, British mysteries.

Good idea, I'll run it by the moderators and see what we can come up with.
