An e book bargain-Missing person: alice by simon mason

I am a fan of Mason’s Oxford set stories featuring Ray and Ryan. The fourth of these A Killing in November was recently published. All of them have been reviewed on my blog.

This new series has two entries out with a third on tap. It is different from the DI Wilkins titles noted above. It is more spare in its style. The reader has all that they need in a story that has no extra padding.

Readers will soon know that Alice, who had a troubled home life, was not seen after a last sighting while delivering newspapers. What happened to her? No spoiler so readers will have to pick this one up.

Interestingly the finder of the title spends a lot of time reading a particular Henry James story. Is that significant? Readers can decide.

Mason is a talented writer and I look forward to whatever he next writes.

Although I reference an e book bargain, that was only true at the time of posting.

I love to read, recommend books and open the world of reading to others. I tutor to ensure that the next generation of readers will know the joys of a good book because their reading skills have improved. I am an avid reader, especially of mysteries and fiction. I believe that two of the world's greatest inventions were the public library and eyeglasses!
