Meanwhile, reading Owner's Share, by Nathan Lowell. And very much enjoying it.

Finished
Owner's Share, and also just finished an Audible reading of
The Gods of Guilt, by Michael Connelly, read excellently by Peter Giles. I'll give
Owner's Share 5 stars, but
The Gods of Guilt only 4.
Next up, an Audible read of Amelia Peabody #2
The Curse of the Pharaohs, read by Barbara Rosenblatt. And, on the eBook side,
A Duty to the Dead, by Charles Todd. The first in the Bess Crawford series. I read this when it first came out, but hadn't followed the series since, but my DW has read them all and I just bought her
A Question of Honor, the latest, from her Wish List while I could get it really, really cheap.
I'm well into the first in the series, and I must say, I had forgotten most of it, but I'm enjoying it quite a bit.
Bess Crawford is an English nurse in WWI, and I'm reminded and a bit horrified to realize just how little our understanding of PTSD (known in WWI as shell shock), or the treatment of those with it, has improved. We really should be doing better than we are.
