Murder In Winnebago County Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I highly recommend "Murder in Winnebago County" by Christine Husom to anyone who appreciates a good mystery. I particularly liked the insight that is provided into the plotting mind of the killer. Although you never quite know what will happen next. Also, Sgt. Corky Aleckson is a well-drawn and believable protagonist. I expect to read more of her adventures in the near future.
"Murder in Winnebago County" is a really good read.

The Burglar Who Smelled Smoke Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have enjoyed every one of Lawrence Block's Bernie Rhodenbarr books and was pleased to discover this short story starring the bookseller and sometime burglar in a story that I hadn't read. I hope that everyone who loves this series as much as I do downloads and reads this as a reinforcement of how much we love these stories and want more, more, more. The story is well structured and true Rhodenbarr. I only wish it could go on and on. Mr. Block, if you have any more of these up your sleeve, please put them on Kindle so we can have the pleasure of reading them. Another book would be even better.

“The Burglar Who Smelled Smoke" features Bernie Rhodenbarr, the lighthearted and lightfingered hero of ten mystery novels. You'll note that it bears a joint byline. Lynne Wood Block, my frequent companion, came up with the basic idea and did the requisite research. Then I sat down and wrote the story, which was the easy part.It was published as a special insert in Mary Higgins Clark's mystery magazine and in an anthology of similar husband/wife collaborations, and has been chosen for locked-room anthologies. I included it in my omnibus collection of short fiction, Enough Rope, so if you already own that book, or want to acquire it in eBook form, you may not need to snap up this present offering.I supose it's inevitable that a burglar should star in a classic locked-room mystery story. Bernie's in another as well, “The Burglar Who Dropped In On Elvis," and one of these days I'll make that available.
