review 1: This first-rate collection includes a few genuine mysteries, but is mostly noir stories of adventure, mob and terrorist conspiracies, vendettas, modern-day pirates of various ilk and of course, capers gone horribly wrong. This year's selections include a lot of historical fiction...

review 1: I’m going to have to give this an unusual review, because I love Lisa Scottoline for a variety of reasons. I love her Rosato & Associates mysteries. I love that she lives in and uses the Philadelphia area in her books. I love her daily posts to Facebook, with her darling King ...

review 1: I had read this author's other short story collection (Why My Third Husband Will Be a Dog) and enjoyed it. This book was given to me by Brendan as one of my Christmas books. I think he just liked the title that truly depicts me and what has happened in our house! (I took over all...
