Review — Sworn to Silence

Wow.  I don’t read thrillers, but Linda Castillo has tempted me to start.  I won this book on a GoodReads Giveaway and it sat around for a little while as I finished a few others.  Big mistake.  I should have bumped it to the top of the stack as soon as the mailman dropped it [...]

Coming Soon – The Bridge

I found out I won The Last Bridge: A Novel from a recent GoodReads FirstReads Giveaway. Below is the blurb — it sounds great and I’m a sucker for an Ohio tale. For ten years, Alexandra “Cat” Rucker has been on the run from her past. With an endless supply of bourbon and a series [...]
