The Kept Woman by Karin Slaughter

 Audio.  16 hours.

Read by Kathleen Early

I have shied away from series books in the past, except for a notable few (Elm Creek Quilters, Alex Cross, Detective DD Warren), but I'm rethinking my position.  I'm enjoying these Will Trent GBI novels.

Will and the GBI investigate when a retired cop is found dead in a basketball star's nightclub construction project.

4 stars.

Little Lovely Things by Maureen Joyce Connolly

 Sisters Lily and Andrea are kidnapped, but only the body of Lily is found.  What happened to Andrea?  Is she dead or alive?

The story was interesting, but some of it was hard to swallow:  Colleen being a genius artist at age 8 and the Native American mysterious Jay.

3 stars.

Murder 101 by Faye Kellerman

4.5 stars.
