My teaser today is from the master of legal thrillers, John Grisham, The Whistler. Actually, I just finished another Grisham as well, The Rooster Bar, a Christmas gift from my hubby. The Rooster Bar is more of a comedic piece, but The Whistler is nice and deep.

I seem to be on a thrillers kick lately. At the moment, I am reading Clive Cussler’s The Pharaoh’s Secret, from the NUMA Files. If you enjoy Egyptian mythology, Napoleonic history, and things blowing up, you’ll definitely enjoy this one.

I just finished a new (to me) James Patterson thriller, Private Down Under. I have read a couple of the other Private books, and quite enjoyed them. This one wasn’t quite up to the same standard as the usual Private titles. There were three separate cases, and I thought that at some point they were going to intersect, but they did not. They were just three separate, unrelated cases. Besides that, there was a strange combination of metric and Imperial measurements in the book.

On to a medical thriller this week, one of my favourite genres. Daniel and Michael Palmer serve up Mercy: a Novel, where an angel of death killer is eliminating one patient after another. I am enjoying the detailed descriptions of the medical procedures and the character development of the protagonist and her family. In the tradition of Robin Cook’s Coma, the Palmer’s bring you Mercy.

I’m in the middle of an intriguing mystery/thriller right now. Hide Your Fear by Kevin O’Brien. I have an idea of how all of the clues fit together and who the culprit is, but I’m not quite sure yet! It’s not quite your usual serial killer thriller.
