A Killer's Alibi by William L. Myers, Jr. Book Review

A very well-written legal thriller by an attorney with 30 years' experience.  This novel actually tells two stories in one - both intricately woven together with a few smaller stories thrown in.  There are a couple of twists and turns throughout that you won't be expecting.  Be sure to add Mr. Myers to your reading list! 

You can find Mr. Myers here at his web site http://www.williamlmyersjr.com/?fbclid=IwAR1bdKXLhVsTiDAxwpwFWjLsiNhRH05R_-RWxJye8FI4bZ9M4Bqc5W9Ygt4

Write on, Mr. Myers, write on.

Everything to Lose by Danielle Girard Book Review

This is the fifth book in Mrs. Girard's Rookie Club series.

Another outstanding book by Mrs. Girard! The characters are consistent throughout (across all of her books). There are many twists and turns. I found myself wondering who the "bad guy" was. This book is so well written, I believe, that even the most discriminating of readers won't be able to figure out who the "bad guy" is.

If you happen to read this book, do feel free to share if you figure out who the "bad guy" is before the end.

I beta/proofread for Mrs. Girard.

Expose by Danielle Girard Book Review

Expose is the third book in the Schwartzman Series by Danielle Girard.

Expose is full of what you (and I) have come to expect from Mrs. Girard. Her characters are consistent throughout the Schwartzman Series. There are plenty of twists and turns as Anna and Hal solve cases throughout Expose. Mrs. Girard combines murder, case solving, and even a bit of romance all in such a way that it leaves you wanting to read her next book … Expire, due out this summer. I am anticipating a good read in that one!

You can find Mrs. Girard on her web site located here https://www.daniellegirard.com/?fbclid=IwAR0_AdaJ1KvhcMt313AvgYlhQbjxGyYLRCbPvSB6yj8mtkwcAyQ32PpF3j4 and her Facebook page located here https://www.facebook.com/AuthorDanielleGirard/

Interference by Danielle Girard Book Review

Interference is the fourth book in Mrs. Girard's The Rookie Club series. I have not read the first three in this series, but I am certain they are just as good.

In Interference, Mei Ling has recently transferred to the San Francisco Police Department. She is put in charge of the computer forensic department and her teammates harbor a bit of resentment toward her. She gets to work with familiar characters from the Dr. Schwartzman Series, Hal Harris and Hailey Wyatt. This book is so well written that you will not be able to figure out who the character J.T. is until the very end. There was a point in this story that I thought I had figured out who J.T. was ... I was wrong.

If you read this book and are able to guess correctly who J.T. is, I'd like to know!

You can find Mrs. Girard on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/AuthorDanielleGirard/ and her web site at https://www.daniellegirard.com/?fbclid=IwAR0xSfVFXGvV0e2-ZRjalkLenzs8zAORYucuQnfpDrZHSm0aL_KVmKGN8LI

I had the opportunity to proofread Interference for Mrs. Girard.

Excise by Danielle Girard Book Review

Excise is book two in the Dr. Schwartzman Series. If you have not read Exhume, I highly recommend you do, otherwise Excise won't make any sense to you.

SPOILER ALERT!

In Excise, we pick up where we left off in Exhume. Dr. Schwartzman has had her surgery and has returned to work as the medical examiner. Four unexplained, yet seemingly connected deaths occur. Strangely enough, these deaths all appear to be related to the chemotherapy drug, Adriamycin, on some level. Who had access to the pharmacy to get this drug? Who would benefit from these deaths? Is Spencer (Dr. Schwartzman's currently incarcerated husband, soon to be ex) to blame, even from behind his cell? Join Hal Harris, San Francisco police inspector, and Dr. Anna Schwartzman as they pursue the killer and a few other twists and turns along the way.

Looking forward to the third book in this series, Exposed, followed by the fourth to be released in July 2019, Expire.

Well done, Mrs. Girard, well done!
