Homecoming by Aussie Author Kate MortonMy review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished listening to Exiles by Aussie author Jane Harper - 3.5*.Third in policeman Aaron Falk series in which he informally investigates a missing mother urged on by her teenage daughter. Not as interesting as other books of hers but I enjoyed her well-developed characters and writing style.
I'm enjoying Simon McCleave's Anglesey crime series, with plenty of suspense and action on the Welsh island. Here's my review for #3

I weakened and started a new (to me) series. (What was I thinking?!) Of course, I enjoyed Martin Walker's French village, so I expect to be squeezing in another visit to Bruno, Chief of Police again before too long.
4.5★ My review of Bruno, Chief of Police

4.5 stars for
