What is on your bed side table? 2023/2024
The Sebastian St. Cyr historical mystery series is a favourite. In #10, author C.S. Harris asks, Who Buries the Dead? (And who steals their heads?!) Great atmosphere, stories, and characters.

Needing some fast-paced adventure so I turn to one of my favorite authors - Clive Cussler.Arctic Drift by Clive Cussler
I am now reading Gold Fever
by Vicki Delany. Book 2 in the Klondike mystery series. It takes place in 1898 Dawson City, Klondike Canada. Lots of history around the Gold Rush. Fiona is a great characters. I read book one
many years ago. There are not a lot of books written in Klondike. Interesting time and characters.
If you enjoy good writing, history, mystery and complex characters, join me in my love of C.S. Harris's Sebastian St. Cyr historical murder mystery series.

I finished James Patterson's / Maxine Paetro's Women's Murder Club #s 23 & 23.5, as well as Poe's Murders in the Rue Morgue.
The Sebastian St Cyr historical mystery series by C.S. Harris is just terrific. Searching for missing street children takes Lord Devlin to
Where the Dead Lie
