I've not read any of Jeffery Deaver's work before, so his short story Turning Point was my introduction. Loved it! Finding RDK, the Russian Doll Killer, was cleverly done.
4.5★ Link to my Turning Point review
The crime comes right at the end of this book and doesn't need solving.

3 stars for this contemporary/domestic dramaFor some reason I can't get the book up on the add book/author button, so it's The Book of Two Ways by Jodi Picoult

Brooke - One Woman's Brief Book Reviews wrote: "For some reason I can't get the book up on the add book/author button"I had the same problem with The Reach last night, which also definitely has a listing - there's something going wrong with the Goodreads search engine - there were also a few people complaining today on facebook about not being able to find popular books via the app. It's working for me again now, so 🤞
