"Midnight and Blue"
@Beathhigh
The 25th book in the Rebus series. It features Rebus in prison and carrying out an investigation there, whilst Siobhon Clarke is carrying out a different investigation on the outside. Very entertaining story.

"Happy is the One" by @katieallenauthor.bsky.social‬

Amazing book, so much to it, friendships, looking after family, romance all wrapped into the basic premise of a misguided belief. I enjoyed it enormously.

Marble Hall Murders - yet another cracking read from
@AnthonyHorowitz
This is the final part of the trilogy of "books within books" which started with "Magpie Murders" and continued with "Moonflower Murders" I recommend starting with the first one. They are very entertaining.
