Carolyn | 2078 comments The Last Remains (Ruth Galloway, #15) by Elly Griffiths The Last Remains by Elly Griffiths appears to be the final book in this series. I shall miss all the characters, especially Ruth and Cathbad. It was fun having an archaeologist and a druid as characters in a crime series.

PattyMacDotComma | 813 comments A couple more fun ones from Amazon's Busybodies Collection, cosy mysteries.

Crime of Fashion by Emma Rosenblum takes place at a fashion shoot where a minor underling is accused of stealing a necklace worth $3million! Poor kid.

The Nosy Neighbor is by Nita Prose, who wrote the popular The Maid, among other things. It seemed straightforward, but I should have known better. Nicely twisty.

PattyMacDotComma | 813 comments Switchblade by Michael Connelly is a Harry Bosch short story which I enjoyed as an audio. It's another cold case solved with the help of an unexpected tip and new DNA testing.
