Historia
Lord Rosemorran has purchased a wax figure of a beautiful reclining woman and asks Stoker to incorporate a clockwork mechanism to give the Rosemorran Collection its own Sleeping Beauty in the style of Madame Tussaud’s. But when Stoker goes to cut the mannequin open to insert the mechanism, he makes a gruesome discovery: this is no wax figure. The mannequin is the beautifully preserved body of a young woman who was once very much alive. But who would do such a dreadful thing, and why?

Historia
MCM Investigations are back! Although Brigit isn’t sure for how long. Money is tight, business is slow, and her partner, Paul, has been temporarily crippled due to her attempts to be in two places at once; one place being at the bottom of a ladder. It’s therefore manna from heaven when an old friend comes to them in need of help.

Historia
Kristin Newman spent her 20s and 30s dealing with the stresses of her high-pressure job as a television comedy writer, and the anxieties of watching most of her friends get married and start families while she wrestled with her own fear of both. Not ready to settle down and yet loathe to become a sad-sack single girl, Kristin instead started traveling the world, often alone, for a few months each year, falling madly in love with attractive locals who provided moments of the love she wanted without the cost of the freedom she needed.

I've always wanted to travel, even as a little girl. I wanted to zoom off to faraway lands. Kristen just did it. As an adult. I've started traveling internally with my boyfriend and some friends. I've also been traveling around the US for work and that's where I found this book. Kristen has inspired me to go see far flung places solo. I'm hoping to do my first solo trip in October. So, thanks for being inspiring and sharing your story!

I have really enjoyed the Veronica Speedwell series. I love her writing and how she writes the characters' interactions. The stories are engaging and fun. An Unexpected Peril was a book I devoured. Also, I love how Angèle Masters brings Deanna Raybourn's characters to life. I hope to see more books in this series!

It is a cold January morning, and Shetland lies beneath a deep layer of snow. Trudging home, Fran Hunter's eye is drawn to a splash of color on the frozen ground, ravens circling above. It is the strangled body of her teenage neighbor, Catherine Ross. The locals on the quiet island stubbornly focus their gaze on one man - loner and simpleton Magnus Tait.

It took me a little bit to get into the story, but once I did, I couldn't stop. The story takes a few turns and the ending caught me off guard. I definitely recommend!

Ms. Raybourn has again delivered a well thought-out plot. Ms. Masters' performance has brought the story to life with her expert delivery. I absolutely adore every book in this series and this is no exception. I hope there will be more Veronica Speedwell books in the future!

Historia
Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

After the Final War, after the appearance of the Bug aliens and their enforced peace, Shining Smith is still alive, still doing business from the old scrapyard bequeathed to her by her father. But Shining is now something more than human. And the scrapyard is no longer just a scrapyard, but a place full of secrets. This life she has built, while empty, is predictable and safe. Until the only friend left from her previous life shows up, dead, in the back of a scrapped Tesla warplane. Clutched in her cold fingers is a note to Shining - warning her of a coming attack.

This book made me smile and made me cry. I loved learning about the Obamas from Michelle's perspective. I loved learning how deeply she loves her husband, her family, and our country. I love that she shares her victories as well as her blunders. I love how she continues to encourage people and how she saw how important encouraging others, especially young girls, is. I appreciate that she opened herself to the world with this book and that she narrated it. She has inspired me to look for ways to encourage others.
