This is the second John Ray Horn story, published in the U.K. It has the title 'While I Disappear' in the US. John Ray and Joseph Mad Crow search for the man who killed a former silent film actress with whom the two made a film 20 years previously. It has the terrific crime noir feel of his previous book, 'Cleo's Moon'. I enjoy the noir descriptions of 1940's LA and Hollywood. Good read, nice for a rainy weekend or at the beach.

Ranger Pigeon is back at Isle Royale, only this time it is January. The island is isolated and something strange is happening with the winter wolf study. Nevada Barr has written another compelling story, her usual description heavy style at it's best. One feels as if one is there, and could recognize the terraine. The mystery is a combination of horror-like happenings and murder to boot. I really enjoy Nevada Barr, and this one doesn't disappoint. Anna is up to her hips in snow and ice and murder.
