The Shadows in the Street, by Susan Hill
Jane and the Madness of Lord Byron, by Stephanie Barron (the newest in her series with Jane Austen as her sleuth; a little too improbable, but a good read for old times' sake)
The Brutal Telling, by Louise Penny (the fourth .... or fifth? ... book in her Three Pines series, and wonderful; I'm reading the first book in the series now and have the others stacked up and waiting)
The Brave Escape of Edith Wharton, by Connie Nordhielm Wooldridge
A Game of Hide and Seek, by Elizabeth Taylor
An Impartial Witness, by Charles Todd (his second mystery about World War I nurse Bess Crawford; his Inspector Rutledge series is more moody and imaginative, but this is a good period piece too)
As Always, Julia: the letters of Julia Child & Avis DeVoto, edited by Joan Reardon
The Dark Vineyard, by Martin Walker (the second book in his series about the police chief in Saint-Denis, a village in the Dordogne; a good read in a busy week)
Fannie's Last Supper, by Chris Kimball
The Viognier Vendetta, by Ellen Crosby (a mystery from a series set in Virginia wine country; good company while I was cooking and driving but not especially appealing)
