Society of Lies by Lauren Ling Brown

★★★★ ☐ The publisher has provided a copy for review.
Frightening and fascinating. Could be real, could be storied non-fiction, or completely made up. I couldn't decide until the end. 

It's a mystery and a thriller. Recommended if you like exploring possibilities of what lurks under the surface of good intentions and philanthropic investments. And if you like to speculate about secret societies, you'll love this one.

The Framed Women of Ardmore House by Brandy Schillace

★★★★ ☐ The publisher has provided a copy for review.
I hope this is the start of a series. A high-functioning autistic American lands in the UK after inheriting a crumbling mansion. A dead body. Unlikeable exes. Lumbering police. Trips here and there.

The advantage of an atypical neurology, combined with determination and curiosity? It makes for a great murder mystery with so much more than a typical plot.

It was suspenseful, twist-and-turns delightful, and surprising. I recommend it when you have a week off or want to dash in and out on a long journey of reading. Fair warning, you can pick it up anytime ... but you may be turning pages and have a hard time putting it down.

Suspects by Danielle Steel

★★★★ ☐ The publisher has provided a copy for review.

 Well, the experienced storyteller comes up with another fun plot and characters you want to cheer for. In the flow of this romantic thriller, you will run into surprises. Theo and Mike are on separate missions but unite to find her family's killers.

Steel brings a love story and hope to tragedy and grief, no matter what she writes. You'll be surprised and on the edge of your seat - and then enjoy a satisfying ending.
