It's only Thursday

I really shouldn't complain. Next week, Monday and Tuesday, I'll be working all day and on the front desk because our receptionist will be gone.

And the morning has gone quickly. I didn't have a chance to get groceries yesterday as planned so I'll be doing that today.

About to start THE NETSCHER CONNECTION by Estelle Ryan. 11th of 11 in series featuring Dr. Genevieve Lenard, nonverbal communication expert and high-functioning autistic, and her team.

Doctor Genevieve Lenard is on holiday in Hungary when she and her team are asked to assist in a missing person case. Her autistic mind is already having difficulties dealing with the new environment, and having to co-operate with local authorities might push her past her limits. Even more so when the missing person turns out to be an important, and painful, part of a team member's past. The seemingly simple case takes a gruesome turn as their search uncovers artwork drenched in violent history, numerous deaths presumed to be by natural causes and the menacing online presence of a serial killer who's been cyber-stalking victims for years. Bodies are piling up at an alarming rate and, knowing that one of their own is in the killer's sights, Genevieve will have to use all her inner strength and expertise to stop this ruthless murderer.

Published in 2017, 244 pages.

Also working on VOYAGER by Diana Gabaldon. 3rd of 8 in series continues the saga of 20th-century physician Claire Randall and 18th-century Jacobite rebel Jamie Fraser.

Believing that Jamie died at Culloden, the pregnant Claire returned to her own century, reunites (unhappily) with her first husband and gives birth to a daughter, Brianna. But when Claire takes Brianna to Scotland in 1968 to introduce her to her true heritage, they uncover evidence that Jamie had survived. Claire determines she must rejoin him and once again steps fatefully through the stones on Craigh na Dun to find Jamie in Edinburgh in 1766. They wish nothing more than to lead a quiet life, but the kidnapping by pirates of Jamie's young nephew sets the couple off to the New World in pursuit, followed by old enemies and faced by new and vicious dangers.

Published in 1994, 870 pages. Re-reading this prior to the miniseries starting up in a couple weeks on Starz. This is a digital library loan.

And a couple nonfiction books.

I've got the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders episode to watch tonight but that's it.

Have a good day

Much love,
