Okay, David; I'll keep an eye out for that one. I actually do have plans for scanning books in the Alex McKnight series by Steven Hamilton. They look quite good and I certainly haven't read them but don't know about anyone else. Here's the synopsis for the first one.
A Cold Day in Paradise (The first book in the Alex McKnight series) (1998) Other than the bullet lodged less than a centimetre from his heart, former Detroit police officer Alex McKnight thought he had put the nightmare of his partner's death and his own near-fatal injury behind him. After all, Maximilian Rose, convicted of the crimes, has been locked in the state pen for years. But in the small town of Paradise, Michigan, where McKnight has traded his badge for a cosy cabin in the woods, a murderer with Rose's unmistakable trademarks appears to be back to his killing ways. With Rose locked away, McKnight can't understand who else would know the intimate details of the old murders - not to mention the signature blood-red rose left on his doorstep. It seems as though Hell will freeze over before McKnight can unravel the cold truth in this town that's anything but Paradise.If anyone fancies these, just let me know. They've got them in the library and the first one will be ready for me on Monday. Like you, Shell, I can't search for particular categories but can search the catalogue if I know what a particular book's about. I did have talking books while the library was closed, and David had been sending me quite a few books so I didn't have to go through reading withdrawal.
Cheers,Sandra.
