Still reading
West with the Night on my Kindle, but meanwhile finished the latest Mary Russell/Sherlock Holmes book by Laurie King:
Dreaming Spies. I really like this series, though there were a couple of duds in the middle, but this was definitely NOT a dud. Excellent.
The action takes place on a cruise from Mumbai to Japan, then in Japan, and finally in Oxford. This is Russell and Holmes at their best, IMO, and only one place where I thought the author had them miss a clue that they should have clearly gotten. All in all an excellent read (and listen, since about 2/3rds of it was as an Audible book.)
