Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead by Olga Tokarczuk was on the “mystery” shelf, but I am not sure I would classify it as such. It does involve a murder (in fact, a string of murders) which are solved at the end of the book, but it is very literary and does not at all follow the plot of a sleuth trying to solve the murders.

One of my goals this year was to work on getting some more audio out. While I have a few audiobooks out, most of them are for stand alone books and YA, not on my longer mystery series, which is a poor marketing choice! Audio is expensive, so it can be tough to make your investment back if I don’t get many buyers. But I have some strategies in place and hope to be able to pump up audio this year.

y current read is Blind Search, by Paula Munier, the second book in the Mercy Carr mystery series. It is set in Vermont and includes lots of description of local flora and fauna (though not in so much detail that you want to skip over it.) Mercy Carr, the main sleuth in the book, is ex-army and has an army-trained dog (Elvis) to help her out with her investigation. Her sidekick is a game warden and also has a dog (Susie-Bear) trained to track.

I have recently begun Behind Her Eyes, by Sarah Pinborough. This is a psychological suspense that has apparently come to Netflix, though I haven’t watched it. Pinborough weaves a complex web between three characters, David, his wife Adele, and his secretary Louise. There is definitely something wrong in David and Adele’s marriage, but Pinborough only hints at what is going on, and from the various reviews and descriptions of the plot, I can only get that what you think is going on is definitely not what’s really going on behind the scenes here.

This week I am reading Mrs. Jeffries in the Nick of Time, by Emily Brightwell. I’ve read a couple other books in the Mrs. Jeffries series (this is book 25 of 40 in the series, so there is plenty for you to binge on! If you enjoy a good British cosy mystery set in Victorian London, then this is a series for you. Mrs. Jeffries is police inspector Witherspoon’s housekeeper, and she and the household staff help to solve the murder cases he is working on and subtly feed him the solutions so that he thinks he solved it himself.
