I really enjoy Nora Robert's Lieutenant Eve Dallas books. Did you know that she has written over twenty titles in this series? A good one is Innocent in Death. This series is set in the future in New York City. Lt. Dallas uncovers some extraordinary surprises while searching for the killer of a popular history teacher.
Have you heard that the Agatha Christie books are being republished. This is a great time to revisit the classic Hercule Poirot mystery The mystery of the Blue Train.
I was interested to read the comment about the Agatha Christie books. My aunt got me hooked on her books when I was a teenager. I think I read every one of them. Maybe I'll have to read some of them again. And Then There Was None was my favorite
