Funeral In Blue


Tragedy has come to a friend of Hester Monk and Callandra Daviot.  Dr. Kristian Beck’s wife has been murdered along with artist’s model Sarah Mackeson.  When Dr. Beck is arrested for the murders, Monk steps in to find out who really killed the women.  Travel with Monk through the streets of Victorian England as well as Vienna, Austria as he searches for Elissa’s murderer. Glimpse the world of compulsive gambling and understand the uprisings in Europe against oppression.

I Love to Read

In case you hadn't noticed, I love to read. I just finished Weighed in the Balance by Anne Perry and Silencer by James W. Hall. The Anne Perry is another book in the Inspector Monk series of detective fiction. I still have quite a few to go before I re-read or listen to them all.

Silencer is a book in a series about a guy named Thorn. I used to read these and saw the new one and figured it was time to read another one. Now I am not so sure. It was much grittier than the reading I currently do. I was almost afraid of having nightmares because the bad guys were so evil.

Reading and Writing

I finished all my homework for next Wednesday - the paper is written and everything. Now I am free to go back to reading for pleasure. I have a mountain of books from the library and only can renew a couple of them, so it's speed reading or give up.

I finished listening to A Breach of Promise by Anne Perry. I am reading her book Weighed in the Balance.
