The investigators at the No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency are concerned with a shady nightclub, family connections, and a new dress.
Always nice to visit with these favorite characters. 3 stars
My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I read four other mystery/thriller books by Fesperman last year and really enjoyed them, so I am hoping this one will keep the momentum going.

Inspector Troy #8. It turns out that Troy is friends with Guy Burgess, the famous Soviet spy. And Burgess proceeds to pull Troy into the complicated business of espionage. This is another wonderful effort by Lawton. Well-loved old and new characters involved in a very complicated plot with lots of moving pieces. 4 stars, highly recommended.



Reading The Long Shadow: The Classic Christmas Mystery by Celia Fremlin. So far it reminds me of something Shirley Jackson would have written without the creep factor.
