I thought this could have delivered more. The whole book is really setting up the following 2 books as some characters join forces and prepare for a journey and others start to reveal the corruption rife throughout the empire. The trilogy is ultimately better for that though I think.

Cop with a twist
Not a huge fan of supernatural or sci-fi genres, but this had me interested from the outset - so much so, I've started following the cast on Instagram!! I love when the wesen characters woge. Incorporate a bit of corruption, action, romance and dry-wit and you've got a winner!

Heart breaking
A powerful documentary detailing the protection of Congos national park, Virunga. A film that exposes the corruption of the British oil company SOCO and the state of the country's political system. The dedication of the park rangers in protecting the wildlife is inspiring. This is a definite tear jerker, but a must see

Even better than the first series
This crime drama is brilliant. So many good plot twists and turns. This time the corruption squad are looking into an ambush on a witness under police protection. This does have some ties to the first series, so best watching that first. It's a gripping story that will keep you guessing.

Melanie Caldicott (6 KP) rated The Confession in Books

I found this book a fascinating expose about the death penalty and the corruption of the Texan justice system. However, like many of the other review writers I lost interest towards the end and felt Grisham spent too much time on his soap box at the expense of good storytelling. Overall a fascinating, challenging read but bit disappointing towards the end.
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2067 KP) rated Oh Danny Boy (Molly Murphy Mysteries, #5) in Books

Molly's sometimes boyfriend Daniel is arrested for police corruption, which is crazy despite the evidence against him. Molly, naturally, tries to clear his name. This book is great for characters development of both Molly and Daniel not to mention a great mystery.
