I have “A Lonely Death” in my queue to read. The Ian Rutledge series of crime stories seems to me to be one I’ll enjoy. But I can’t say how much before I read the first book!

Have you read any books by Charles Todd? (a mother/son team from the South whose books are all set in or post WWI)

Not literature but I enjoy them, all set in or around London.

Love, Betty

If so how do you reduce it, any plugin or anything you can suggest? I get so much lately it’s driving me insane so any assistance is very much appreciated.
