I've just read that recently and I think it's one of her better efforts. There's a review on my blog if you're interested<br /><br />MOONLIGHT DOWNS - Adrian Hyland<br />THE CORONER'S LUNCH - Colin Cotterill.<br />Both Australian writers. Both very, very different. Both fabulous. Both have a great deal of humour, and both have a spiritual belief aspect to them.

And ...Hi Deborah! <br /><br />How nice of you to drop in :D <br /><br />And just for once, I know exactly why a book is on my list: Cathy reviewed it one month ago, and I could not resist the combination of the dog, the car and the cover. <br />http://www.kittlingbooks.com/2009/10/mama-does-time-by-deborah-sharp.html<br /><br />As you may have gathered from my wish list, I read and review a lot of English crime. More British than American, I know, but I have come across some very nice American novels recently. <br /><br />N.B: your book may not win this month´s vote, but don´t worry, it will stay on my list until one day ...Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-16063627943240933012009-11-09T20:46:44.464+00:002009-11-09T20:46:44.464+00:00Hello, there ...

I'd love to add a vote for MAMA DOES TIME, mainly because I'm so thrilled as the author to see the debut in my funny, Florida-set mystery series show up on your ''Books I'd Like to Read'' list. Truthfully, it's probably a bit light for your taste. But it does spotlight a part of Fla. the tourists rarely see. <br />I'm very curious: How did you hear about MAMA all the way over in Denmark?<br />Best, Deborah Sharp (Author)Deborah Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01575491644343480392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-53459075237534375182009-11-09T13:25:12.444+00:002009-11-09T13:25:12.444+00:00Oh, Beth, you will have to wait for a long time.
...Oh, Beth, you will have to wait for a long time. <br />You see, when I began blogging, I didn´t even know real book lovers had to have a TBR of several hundred books. I know that now so I buy, beg and win as many books as possible every month. At the same time I try to read as few as possible - otherwise I will never ever get a respectable TBR ;)Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-6293599306316872002009-11-09T13:10:03.068+00:002009-11-09T13:10:03.068+00:00I haven't read any of them!

Several of the ones I've read are very, very good, though - as Norman says, The Coroner's Lunch. Garnethill by Denise Mina is rather special - but you'll then have to go out and buy the next two! And Bad Debts - well if you've read one Peter Temple then you'll know whether you are hooked on this addictive author or not! I loved it. I also loved the Adrian Hyland (aka Diamond Dove) and Winter's Bone (Woodrell - which is perhaps the darkest of these). I am not sure whether I've read this particular Vargas, I think possibly not. The Val McDermid is good but personally I'd go for the Temple, Mina, Woodrell, Hyland or Cotterill.
