Catherine Smaridge | 90 comments I have recently finished "Under the Stones". It was a detective novel by a lady author - unfortunately I can't remember her name now, but I think her last name was Palmer. Basically, two women were found strangled and the decetive backtracks to find another. Meanwhile his wife has just had a children's book published and is touring Scotland on a promotion tour. As the evidence comes together the profiler realises the dectective's wife fits the profile of the victims...
I enjoyed it but solved it before I got to the end.

Frank Settineri (franksett) | 29 comments Scott wrote: "Edge of Eternity, Ken Follet's third in his trilogy about the twentieth century. It is also quite long, as were the first two, but it is not slow in any way."He's one of my favorite authors. I judge a book by how many times I think about it and Pillars of the Earth is very high on my list.

Possibly my favorite book of all time. I was totally surprised by it and it seemed so real. It's amazing how people from different eras lived and how their problems are so similar to ours. Frank
