I've been reading this for about a month. I keep getting distracted by other books.
So earlier this week I finished "The Long Call", the first in a new series by Ann Cleeves. I enjoyed it - it's been made into a TV series which is being trailed heavily - that doesn't look so good.
Then I read the "Stone Chamber" the latest in Kate Ellis's excellent series set in south Devon. And I ended the week with "The Crooked Shore", the eighth in Martin Edwards's equally excellent Lake District series.

"New Tricks" is fun isn't it? James Bolam is one of my favourite actors. It finished its run a few years ago now.

I'm edging my way back into the outside world. I've offered to volunteer at a local library. Hopefully something will come of that.

The local Covid break is running out of steam. It rather looks as though it didn't translate into deaths or even hospitalisations.

Fed up with it now.
