See also the CAMELDABBLETRAVELBABBLE Blog. Rumours of my dropout, disappearance, or death have probably been gravely overestimated. After all, the blog name is right there in your face should you actually look for it. The name was hastily chosen with no forethought whatsoever when a techno-terrific offspring created it for me upon departure for the airport never to be seen again. And woe leaving moi to my own meagre devices. It's taken. By me). Or changed it to BalticandCelticConnections. The Book of Me.

http://anotherfamdamily.blogspot.com/2015/07/library-limelights-88.html
Nostalgia - nonsense - neighbourhood - nah, mostly CRIME NOVEL reviews. Peggy Blair. Hungry Ghosts. Toronto: Simon and Schuster, 2015. How does she do it? Weaving parallels between Cuba and native reservations in Canada . often subtle, sometimes. The novel is really two stories. Ricardo Ramirez of the Havana Major Crimes Unit and Charlie Pike of the Rideau Regional Police Force — whom you will remember if you read. Blair's The Poisoned Pawn. One-liner: "Sometimes I feel like I'm one broken-down truck and...

Nostalgia - nonsense - neighbourhood - nah, mostly CRIME NOVEL reviews. Jo Nesbo. Police. Random House Canada, 2013. For a committed fan (like me), a new Nesbo book is occasion for tingling anticipation, the occasion to hole up (pun) and read non-stop. Would he introduce all-new characters? Would he refer in passing to his former lead detective, the go-to guy for solving crimes despite his own inner damage? Well, if you thought the last one was complicated and cried when Harry Hole was shot ( in Phantom.

Nostalgia - nonsense - neighbourhood - nah, mostly CRIME NOVEL reviews. Daniel Silva. The Heist. New York: HarperCollins, 2014. Mind-stretching as some of the manoeuvres might be, the plot sails along among the art world of fabulous European cities. Steal a famous artwork to find a stolen masterpiece ― that should work, right? Silva knows how to keep you captive in pure escapism. Consider yourself lucky.". When are you going to fire her, Julian?

Nostalgia - nonsense - neighbourhood - nah, mostly CRIME NOVEL reviews. Kristina Ohlsson. Unwanted. 2009 New York: Atria Books/Simon and Schuster, Inc., 2012. Am I on the crest of the Scandinavian wave, or what? The climax is strangely dull. Adding the romantic or domestic life of two characters does not make up for rather stilted prose. However, why not give Ohlsson another chance? Of all the questions raging in her head, one was more insistent than the rest. What the hell am I doing here? Maybe he was ...
