How nice! I remember Maxine's positive reviews of these books, and that I wrote several down on my TBR list.
ReplyDeleteNow I must follow through and read them, except for Hour of the Wolf, which I've read.
Again, thanks to Maxine for raising the bar on crime fiction and expanding and elevating my book choices.
That's lovely! And those are excellent choices.
