Gayle | 111 comments I finished listening to Exiles by Aussie author Jane Harper - 3.5*.

Third in policeman Aaron Falk series in which he informally investigates a missing mother urged on by her teenage daughter. Not as interesting as other books of hers but I enjoyed her well-developed characters and writing style.

PattyMacDotComma | 813 comments I weakened and started a new (to me) series. (What was I thinking?!) Of course, I enjoyed Martin Walker's French village, so I expect to be squeezing in another visit to Bruno, Chief of Police again before too long.
