Status Updates From Cold Iron Kills (DCI Kett, ...

Alex Smith has definitely been ramping up the pace and length and intensity of his Kett series...and NGL, this one has me pretty gripped. Part of me thinks that the presence of someone I keep seeing crop up is going to be the obvious unexpected final link in the chain...but part of me thinks that Smith is getting wilier with his red herrings & this one is going to turn out to be the exact opposite. Onward!

Kett really needs to brush on at least the very basics of art. Pretty much everyone knows that the painting 'American Gothic' is by Grant Wood. I'll forgive him (or maybe Alex Smith?) for thinking it portrays a man & his wife though; it's a man & his daughter. But I guess I can let Kett off with not knowing that part, being as he has to focus so much more on Kilner jars full of gore & why 'empty boys don't talk'.

Got up wanting to read something fun...so obviously I opted for the last Robert Kett eBook I had downloaded. Because my idea of fun is grotesquely macabre goings on and graphic, violence & murder. Feels like we're coming to the end of the Kett series, which seems right. The gang have been through enough. Not liking the mentioning of 'influencers' & 'alphas' so far though. Please don't be anti-manosphere!
