Now I am trying a Spanish (well, Basque) crime story. Bit strange. A completely different policing system and this particularly book leaves in quite a bit of local language and customs.
Its nice to try something a bit different.

Are you reading anything different?
I like crime novels. I have read quite a lot Swedish crime novels, couple of Danish, one or two French and Italian ones and quite a few Icelandic. All translated of course. (Bit like Saturday night dramas seen on BBC4!)

Have you read the books from the Canadian author, Louise Penney? She has a wonderful series about Inspector Gameche of the Quebec Surete and all the quirky characters from 3 Pines. This series is a best seller all around the world and she is hugely popular. It should be read in order but I think you would enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteWhen I returned my books to the library last week I brought home 4 quick reads all by well know authors. The first was a Lynda La Plant Prison story based on a real event. Two prisoners swap places so that one of them can attend the birth of his first child. They are great afternoon read.
