I feel that way whenever I read one of Paddy Richardson's books. She has a way of really drawing the reader in like that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-58512451730387561282017-04-03T01:34:39.521-07:002017-04-03T01:34:39.521-07:00May and Tursten are two of my favorite authors.

I should probably give her a second chance.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-20064660364475841632017-04-03T01:13:09.003-07:002017-04-03T01:13:09.003-07:00Wow!

My heart just started pounding thinking about the crime against tigers, etc. I would also be angry, knowing that often fiction reflects real crimes.<br /><br />I couldn't wait to find out the resolution of Tana French's The Trespasser, but I made myself wait until the denouement unfolded. I knew I'd be missing some good writing if I peeled ahead.<br /><br />Also, in Peter May's Coffin Road, couldn't wait to find out the culprit. And in Helene Tursten's Who Watcheth.
