This book didn't disappoint all the way through. Still highly recommended.
Now for something purely relaxing -- I'm currently reading
The Skull Beneath the Skin, the second (and final) Cordelia Gray book from P.D. James. This and its predecessor,
An Unsuitable Job for a Woman, are both read ably by Katie Scarfe.
