Here are this week's reviews, which stick a bit closer to home this time round:
Michelle Peckham reviews the mass market paperback edition of The Source by Michael Cordy summing it up as "one for the beach";Previous reviews can be found in the review archive and forthcoming titles can be found here.
Maxine Clarke reviews the paperback edition of Frozen Tracks by Ake Edwardson writing that it "a satisfying read, both in terms of plot and characterisation";
Norman Price reviews Relics of the Dead by Ariana Franklin (apa Grave Goods in the US). He finds lead character Adelia "a beguiling heroine in a fascinating historical setting" (Win a copy this month);
Rik Shepherd is unimpressed by Bulldog Drummond by Sapper wondering why it's such a 'classic';
Amanda Gillies reports that it's business as usual in Neil White's strong Garrett/McGanity series, of which Last Rites is the third
and Terry Halligan praises Jacqueline Winspear highly for her latest Maisie Dobbs outing, Among the Mad.

That particular cover is ridiculous for Bulldog Drummond.
The books are classics because most fans of Sapper were aged 12-15 when they read them first.
Their fond memories of their youth exaggerate the quality of the books.
