Fiction

Constance Greene goes back to 1800's New York City via time machine to try and rescue her sister and brother, and kill Dr. Leng--the serial killer whose medical experimentation made her ageless. Agent Pendergast jumps in. I didn't know this was a 3 book series until I got to the end, and it left me hanging. So, I've ordered the last installment, "Angel of Vegeance."

In the meantime, I started, "Calamity of Souls," by David Baldacci. "An historical legal thriller set in 1968 Virginia, about a racially charged murder case where a young white lawyer and an experienced Black lawyer team up to defend a Black man falsely accused of killing a wealthy white couple. The book explores themes of racism, justice, and the deep-seated divisions in the South during the Civil Rights era, as the lawyers fight against a biased system and powerful forces trying to ensure a conviction." So far, so good.

I've busted my butt on the ice twice in the last week. Stay safe, fellow readers!
