And I've finished those -- enjoyed both of them quite a bit. The PD James is, of course, well written, but I was pleasantly surprised by the Joseph Hansen novel. This first of the Dave Brandstetter books held up well and was an excellent read and a good mystery.

I then read the 19th Foreigner book, Emergence, by CJ Cherryh. Excellent. This series has stood up well, and continues to make me wish she could write faster! This book has, like the last several, had a bit more Cajeiri, and a bit less Bren, than I might choose, but not such that it's a problem.

Also listening to Neogenesis, the 21st book in the Liaden Universe. I read the eARC this fall, so this time I'm listening to the Audible version.
