A Crime is Afoot 
Excellent choice, José Ignacio, and thank you for the kind mention. 🙂
You’re welcome Margot!
I am so far behind on Jo Nesbo. And his books are so long. But I will get there, someday. Also behind on Philip Kerr. I am eager to read John Lawton’s newest book, and will go check out your review.
Thanks for you comment Tracy. I’m well behind Philip Kerr and John Lawton’s books myself.
Another reminder for me to read some of Kerr’s Bernie books. Lawton is another who I have never read.
I hope you’ll enjoy them Col.
Many thanks, once more for picking In A Word: Murder. Appreciated. 🙂
