Series: Dr Thomas Silkstone Mystery #2 I eagerly dove into this next book because I found the first one so interesting. I didn't find this one nearly so engaging, however, for a variety of reasons.

Series: Dr Thomas Silkstone Mystery #1 Very mild spoilers. This was a fairly intricately plotted historical fiction mystery that I quite enjoyed despite the apparently mandatory love interest along with love at first sight (at least on his part). It was also refreshing because it takes place i...
The Sixth Victim (A Constance Piper Mystery) by Tessa Harris is a disturbing book but the brutal events described did carry the story forward. It has a supernatural bent and is brilliantly written. It is a fast, mesmerizing book to read. I gave it five stars because this author made me feel as if ...

So this was not the book I thought I was picking up and I didn't look at the description before I downloaded this audiobook. I thought I was picking up this book. Can you see how I might have screwed this up? If I told you I heard about The Midwife of Venice once 3 years ago would that help explain...

I noticed there were mixed reviews about this second book in the series. I personally thought it was a great story. I like how Harris writes about alot of unique and interesting things. I always learn alot of stuff from her stories. They aren't for the faint at heart though.She really delves deep in...
3.5 stars...I thought it was a good start but I think the writing needs to be developed a little more.

I enjoyed the story and the technical explanations...
