And now, it’s up

There may be something relevant to the fact that my first column for the Baltimore Sun is posted just as Yom Kippur drew to a close and a new year has begun, but then again, there might not be. In any case, I reviewed S.J. Rozan’s ABSENT FRIENDS, Sujata Massey’s THE PEARL DIVER, Faye and Jonathan Kellerman’s DOUBLE HOMICIDE, John Smolens’ FIRE POINT, and Michael Blaine’s THE MIDNIGHT BAND OF MERCY. Most of the books garnered good reviews all across the spectrum. One didn’t.

Next column’s slated to run on October 31, but that may be subject to change.
