I'm not familiar with Still Life. Who is the author.

(@Kay, it is by Louise Penny)
Here are some English/British mysteries that have been on my to-read list for a while now. Anyone want to "second" one of these?Cat and Mouse by Christianna Brand
The Case of the Missing Marquess by Nancy Springer
The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths
Bloodline by Felix Francis (Dick Francis' son)
Skeleton Hill or Abracadaver by Peter Lovesey
The Poisoned Chocolates Case by Anthony Berkeley
Death and the Oxford Box by Veronica Stallwood
Knots and Crosses by Ian Rankin
Frequent Hearses or The Long Divorce by Edmund Crispin
Hamlet, Revenge! by Michael Innes
Endless Night by Agatha Christie
I'll second Knots and Crosses. I just need an excuse to take it off the shelf!
I've liked the Elly Griffiths series and look forward to more.
Kathleen, I'm glad to find someone else who loves Elly Griffiths. I may have her mixed up with another author, but I think she has another book coming out in March. Can't wait.
Thanks, Ann. I won't have to wait as long for Elly Griffiths new one.
I'm another huge Elly Griffiths fan, but that book isn't out until March 14 in the US.
I'd like to nominate The T.C.P.D. by Matthew Finneran. Just discovered this series and its wonderful. Takes place in Britannia, which is where English go after they die (have to read the novel) The book is probably PG rated and it brings back to life the most notorious murderer in all of English history.
Anyway the nominations for Feb. are done and we are currently voting on the nominations.
