Crash & Burn by Lisa Gardner.
A one-person accident in rural New Hampshire leads the police to uncover a 30-year-old kidnapping. Or was it? Nicky, the driver, has recently suffered multiple concussions and is recovering memories from her past, but are they reliable?
The story was a bit convoluted.

A Spool of Blue Thread by Anne Tyler.
Classic Anne Tyler: nothing happens and yet I couldn't stop reading. This novel is the story of the Whitshank family. I think the mail point is a rather Dr. House-esque "everyone lies".
5 stars.

Book #6 in 2015
Woman with a Gun by Philip Margolin.
Intriguing photograph leads a would-be novelist to solve a decade old murder.
The story was okay, not great. I liked the format, going back in time to explain each current event, but I just didn't really care about any of the characters. And I found the idea of all these people involved opening up to a nobody would-be novelist to be far-fetched, at best. To someone famous, sure, but not to this character.
3 stars.

Breaking Silence by Linda Castillo. Read by Kathleen McInerney.
Police Chief Kate Burkholder investigates a series of hate crimes against Amish citizens. But is the death of three Amish adults part of the crime spree, or is it more personal?
The reader was adequate, but not great. Her voice for Tomisetti grated on my nerves.
