PattyMacDotComma | 755 comments The Tilt by excellent Aussie author Chris Hammer is the second in this rural mystery series, but it would be just as good as a standalone. Homicide detectives in small towns are up against generations of feuds and loyalties.

PattyMacDotComma | 755 comments Charles Dickens is known for many things, but this spooky story about a railroad worker seems different to me. The Signal-Man could easily have been a Twilight Zone episode.

Kerri_M | 745 comments Just finished - State of Fear - Tim Ayliffe - AA #2 in the John Bailey series. Topical storyline, fundamentalist terrorism, and switching between London and Sydney.

I seem to be a bit out of sync on the first 2 books in this series, my ratings well below average. I did audio for each, and have had trouble "connecting" to the characters. I have the 3rd book in a later challenge this year, so might go for the book rather than audio, see if that makes a difference.

State of Fear by Tim Ayliffe ★★★☆

I read #4 on my kindle Kerri, and although I hadn't read the first 3 and I no trouble connecting. It could be the audio.. good luck when you read your next one :)

PattyMacDotComma | 755 comments The Spy Coast, by Tess Gerritsen, is a new ensemble piece about five spies who have tried to retire quietly to a small town but discover it's not that easy. The author was inspired by real life circumstances near her, which made it even more interesting to me.

Gayle | 111 comments I finished listening to 44 Scotland Street by Alexander McCall Smith - 3.5*.

The everyday conflicts and surprises of the people who live in the apartments at 44 Scotland Street. Colorful characters, light and humorous.
