Justice in June ReviewI downloaded the Kindle version of this book to pass the time and it did just that. The story was interesting and I enjoyed the courtroom scenes and legal issues. Some of the dialogue is stilted, though, with many passages being downright awkward. I don't know if it's the Kindle version or what, but wow, there were a lot of annoying punctuation errors! It wasn't a terribly exciting book, but I wanted to keep reading and I ordered the prequal - so that brought my review up to four stars.Justice in June Overview

Cruel and Unusual ReviewThis book opens with the execution of rapist/murderer Ronnie Joe Waddell and the following autopsy. Not long after murder victims start showing up around Richmond that look like they were committed by Waddell. How can that be? He's dead. Then his prints show up at a crime scene and to top it off, Kay's assistant in murdered and the press blames Kay.
As usual PC carries over characters from her previous novels that we've come to know. Any second we expect cop buddy Pete Marino to drop dead from his excesses and niece Lucy is still annoying (to me anyway). Thankfully, the descriptions of the murders and the autopsies don't seem as gruesome as the last one ("All that Remains) and like the last one, this thriller gets five stars, because I just couldn't put it down.

Pleasing the Dead (Storm Kayama Mysteries (Hardcover)) ReviewOnce again Deborah Turrell Atkinson displays her talent for writing mysteries that brilliantly convey both the beauty and dangers of Hawaii. In her fourth outing, attorney Storm Kayama travels to Maui to meet with her new client, former champion windsurfer Lara Farrell. To her surprise, Lara seems reluctant to reveal the details about her business partnership with her fiancé Ryan Tagama. Or more accurately, as Storm soon discovers, the ties with Ryan and his Japanese financier father whose tendrils connect him with shady Japanese businessmen who all display a distinct lack of pinky fingers.
Storm's first sights on Maui are the burned remains of a local restaurant, and that harbinger foreshadows a tragic domestic shooting and additional murder as her own room is repeatedly invaded and she is followed by an ominous SUV. In her own life Storm is dealing with the tentative relationship with her boyfriend Ian Hamlin, who left her for a "break" after Storm's previous investigations left them both scarred and wounded.
Atkinson's mysteries always excel at detailing the sights and flavors of Hawaii that only a local could convey. From the diverse and delicious foods such as poi pancakes and saimin with fish cake to the Hawaiian tradition the "coconut wireless" that makes a small island a small neighborhood, all of these descriptions display traits that are uniquely Hawaiian. More than just a regional mystery, Pleasing the Dead explores the complex relationships between fathers and their children and the long-lasting, tragic, legacies left when those relationships are broken. This latest Storm Kayama mystery is the most harrowing yet, with an exciting battle at sea that the reader won't soon forget. A beautiful, scenic, and fascinating thriller that shouldn't be missed.

Physical Education (Murder 101 Mysteries) ReviewPhysical Education is the sixth in the series of detective-comedy-mystery-romances stories revolving around university prof Alison Bergeron. The series is authored by Maggie Barbieri.
And the first book I've read on my new Kindle Fire reader/tablet (Had the KF for a week and I love it).
I've read and reviewed all of Maggie's books in this series and they're lots of fun. This latest installment has a throwback to the first book: a dead body appears in the trunk of Alison's car.
And then it's off to the races with the usual twists and turns. The big twist in this one is how Alison is called upon to temporarily coach the ladies basketball team at the College (St. Thomas, on the scenic Hudson River - eerily similar to the author's alma mater, St. Vincent's in the Bronx).
The standard cast of characters, along with some new ones, and plenty of sub-plots. And of course Professor Bergeron is now married to Detective "Hot Pants" Crawford.
Alison is loaded with one-liners ("one day you're a basketball coach and the next you're selling candy") as she stumbles through to the satisfying conclusion.
All great fun!Physical Education (Murder 101 Mysteries) Overview
