The Clairvoyant's Glasses: Time Has a Shadow by Helen Goltzhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Historical mystery
The Dead of Winter by Nicola Upson is a golden age style locked in murder mystery on a snowed-in island.review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished listening to The Island of Sea Women by Lisa See - 3.5*.Mostly interesting story about friendship in a Korean culture of women divers on a small island. Couldn't always connect with the characters and some unexpected but brief violence due to war.
I finished reading Brave Companions: Portraits in History by David McCullough - 3.5*.Interesting collection of essays about people or places that I mostly didn't know about. Some more compelling than others but McCullough's enthusiasm for history comes through his writing.

The Invisible Library by Genevieve CogmanMy review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I am a great fan of Mick Herron's Slough House series but didn't realise that The Secret Hours was so wonderfully connected to it. Loved seeing some old favourites, back in the day in Berlin.

Happy Ever After in Bellbird Bay by Maggie Christensenhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I thought I would enjoy this mix of paranormal, horror and mystery by a popular author but it just didn't work for me. However, I may be an outlier as it has mostly 5★ reviews.
