Homicide Detective Kit McKittrick's latest case exposes the dark side of San Diego’s high society in Dead Man's List by Karen Rose. Keep reading for Janet's review. Homicide Detective Kit McKittrick’s “origin story” is painful. The violence and abuse she endured as foster-child and street kid, before stumbling into the McKittrick’s barn as a teenager, have made her wary of romance involvement. A passion for justice propels Kit to right wrongs and protect her chosen family, at all costs.

One of my greatest regrets in being a voracious reader (to a tune, on average, of over 300 books a year) is that I don’t often find time to watch movies, at least not for their own sakes. So when I learned that Poisoned Pen Press is reissuing David Dodge’s To Catch A Thief, simultaneously with publishing a brand new authorized sequel, I knew I had a unique chance to dive into two classics of crime media. And the novel and movie of the same name are very much two separate entities, in my opinion.

Keep reading for Doreen's review. When Charlotte Cross was a young woman living in 1930s New York City, earning a spot on an archaeological dig in Egypt seemed like a dream come true.
