I've read Victoria Blake's Bloodless Shadow and have a review ready to post when I find the quote I want put in it! (I enjoyed that one.) I started Richard Burke's Frozen, but unfortunately never finished it as I left it at a friend's. Recovery procedures took so long, I'll need to start it all over again. I have heard it said that Redemption, his second is pretty damn good and I like the look of the synopsis on that one more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32065323.post-1155158057503692672006-08-09T22:14:00.000+01:002006-08-09T22:14:00.000+01:00PS I realise there are two Burkes.

Legal crime, which is one of my favourite sub-genres of the genre.<BR/>As I mentioned previously, I very much like Denise Hamilton, I've read three of hers and am waiting for the fourth to come out in pbk. She writes "journalism crime", again one of my top favourite sub-genres. <BR/>However, neither of the above authors is "Euro", so maybe they don't qualify for your site, strictly speaking.<BR/>I hadn#t realised that Bloodless Shadow was in the Orion list, I have got a copy of it in paperback to read as I sort-of know the author. Well I do know her but I mainly know one of her sisters, though I haven't seen her for years now.<BR/>John Connor is anothe of these authors I like. I'll check out your review of Phoenix. I read one or two of his and have another in my vast TBR pile.<BR/>I read Burke and Mosby but didn't like them. Have not read the rest.Maxine Clarkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06628509319992204770noreply@blogger.com
