I added this to my Goodreads TBR on 10.12.12 but grabbed it from Amazon on 8.3.12. The Goodreads ratings make this a very desirable read for me. Described as a noir crime, hard boiled mystery,it makes me think of Humphrey Bogart and I always like that. How about you? Do old time mysteries appeal to you?

  1. I love that she’s not only a retired detective, but also battling cancer to up the ante. It sounds exciting and I love classic hard-boiled detective stories.
