Reading gives you the inside edge ...


Sorry I missed yesterday. Worked a 10 hour day, walked Tug, made dinner, then rushed over to the in-laws' house to visit with Steve's aunt and uncle. We didn't get home until after 9:30 and I was very tired. I don't remember Steve turning out the light, I zonked out so fast. No no time to blog let alone even check my email.


I've had to set aside the Deryn Lake for the moment to read SHOOT TO THRILL by PJ Tracy. This is a loan from mom who has it from the library and the clock is ticking on it. This book is 5th of 5 in series featuring homicide detectives Leo Magozzi and Gino Rolseth and Grace MacBride, founder of Monkeewrench, a game software company, in Minneapolis. Here is a description:



With murders around the country being posted on the Web by killers who leave no online trail, the FBI is reduced to asking civilian hackers for help. None is more qualified than Monkeewrench Sofware: the unconventional unit of cyber investigators led by ponytailed Harley Davidson, whose Minneapolis mansion houses his eccentric but super-efficient team: eyelash-batting belle, Annie; exercise-addicted Roadrunner; and Grace MacBride, the object of MPD detective Leo Magozzi’s affection. With straitlaced FBI Special Agent John Smith as their liaison and, with Magozzi and partner Gino Rolseth working the local scene, the group starts its 24/7 efforts. Are the murders real or simply enactments? Will federal regulations thwart Monkeewrench, or will Smith (who’s facing retirement) bend the rules?

It was published last month and has 320 pages. I'll be back to the Lake after this one.


Getting hungry so will go have dinner and maybe have some time to read tonight. Woo hoo!


Much love,
