What Fiction are you reading this week, July 17, 2022? [View all]
For these scorching days...
Stay cool
I'm reading Witch Hunt by Ian Rankin, "a formidable presence in author Ian Rankin's precision-tooled plots." This is not a Rebus mystery but a high level Scotland Yard/CIA investigation into an unusual terrorist. It was first published in '93 under the pseudonym "Jack Harvey," and is the first novel Rankin wrote under this name.
Listening to Diablo Mesa, the latest from Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child. A wealthy and eccentric billionaire and founder of Icarus Space Systems, approaches the Santa Fe Archaeological Institute with a hefty donation and a proposal for an excavation. Hoping to bring welcome publicity to the privatized space travel industry, he wants to finance a careful, scientific archaeological excavation of the 1947 Roswell Incident site. I got this on CD from my library and I'm enjoying how it resembles certain people we know without adding to my despair over other current events.
