Listening to the third in the department Q series by Jussi Adler-Olsen, A Conspiracy of Faith. Policrme procedural set in Denmark. Entertaining and creative cast of characters.

Just finished reading the 19th in the Peter Diamond series by Peter Lovesey, The Finisher. Another curmudgeonly police detective. Enjoyable series. The authors note at the end of the people is pretty funny. You just know that Lovesey loves what he does.

Just started reading the third in the Tracks series, Shadows of the Dead, by Spencer Kobe. Another marries they will keep you entertained, if not necessarily riveted.

Also in the beginning of the seventh in the inspector Erlandur series by Icelandic crime writer Arnaldur Indrisason Outrage. So far, typically bleak with a cast of moderate to highly dysfunctional people.

Notice a trend here? I do love my crime series novels.
