You might ask if I'm dipping into all these new books - well, not right now. I'm coming to know that my 'comfort' area at this time resides with Lt. Eve Dallas and her husband, Roarke - protagonists of J.D. Robb's long-running series (it has 50 books!). I'm immersed in read/listens of that series and have found what keeps my interest during these very unusual solitary days. Doesn't mean I'm not excited about these other books that I'm acquiring left and right. I'll get to them and know I'll enjoy the anticipation all the more.
by Jane Casey
DS Maeve Kerrigan finds herself in an unfamiliar world of wealth, luxury and ruthless behaviour when she investigates the murder of a young journalist, Paige Hargreaves. Paige was working on a story about the Chiron Club, a private society for the richest and most privileged men in London. Then she disappeared.
It's clear to Maeve that the members have many secrets. But Maeve is hiding secrets of her own – even from her partner DI Josh Derwent. Will she uncover the truth about Paige’s death? Or will time run out for Maeve first?

As always, my hope is that you are staying safe, sensible, and healthy. Take care!
Looking forward to this one too! Such a good series.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree. One of my favorites.
DeleteI've never tried Casey's work but it sounds good to me!
ReplyDeleteShe writes a really good British crime series.
DeleteI love this series. Not sure how I feel about the gentleman's club setting, but ... I love Maeve, so I'll venture in!
ReplyDeleteYes, we shall see right? Maeve has my loyalty as well.
DeleteI love when I'm happily ensconced in a favorite series. Happy reading! :)
ReplyDeleteI love it too. I like a good standalone, but I really probably prefer a series. Because the story goes on and on.
DeleteI've been waiting for this latest in one of my favorite series! I want my library to open back up--or I may just have to purchase it!
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't all that expensive, Jenclair. As to libraries opening, hmmm...
DeleteOh this looks good and this is a series I've really been wanting to read! You're not helping my book buying binging!
ReplyDeleteOh, was I supposed to be helping your book buying? OK, listen to me - don't buy any more books - say that 10 times. Did it work? LOL
DeleteMy daughter is addicted to this series, at some stage I must give them a try.
ReplyDeleteI like this series a lot Cath.
DeleteI've only read the 1st book in this series but I enjoyed it. I've actually got the 2nd one sitting on my shelf just waiting to be read - sounds like I need to bump it up on my TBR! J.D. Robb's series is a go to for me as well when I'm stressed or just need a comfort read. I finished Promises in Death just a couple of weeks ago :). Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteI think you'd like this whole Casey series, Sam. And, yes, J.D. Robb's books are A-OK in my opinion.
DeleteNine books? I'm so behind . . . I am glad you continue to enjoy this series.
ReplyDeleteSeries will have a way of multiplying won't they? LOL
DeleteI can't believe I'm so behind on this series. I've only read two I think. It is such a good one and I think she's a great character. Need to catch up!
ReplyDeleteIt is a good series. I've really enjoyed all the books. Look forward to this one when my head can wrap itself around 'normal' reading.
