Já tedy, ale vůbec nechápu ja mně, milovnici anglických detektivek, mohla uniknout skotská královna tohoto žánru - Val McDermid!🙈

@krakenapocalypse The first book in the series by is . It's a /#sci-fi story. Technically it might be classed YA because the main characters are in their late teens, well-written and entertaining. writes historical fiction. is third in a series about detective Maisie Dobbs set in post-WWI England. is new to me. is an "intricate and thought-provoking tale of murder and revenge".

Thought I should read @valmcdermid@twitter.com's Karen Pirie #1 The Distant Echo to see what all the fuss is about. Page turn after page turn; cold cases never go cold. I can see why it's so popular...

I finished this classic book yesterday - this was book no. 76 of the year for me. Cracking plot and tension right up to the end. Surprisingly there were only a few details that dated it to 1997. Definitely recommended.

Regardless, I can’t read any more tonight. I need to stop, breathe, compose myself, and move forward.

And hope the author does right by the 97 victims of this real-life disaster. [3/3]
