Learning Lessons with Ricky Kidd
This book collects eleven short stories starring Ricky Kidd and the rest of the Accidental Detectives. While they don’t all feature mysteries to solve, they do include plenty of action and fun. Ricky has a bully or two to deal with. He and Mike take a dangerous canoe ride. And a new classmate’s sculpted replica of a hand leads to a crisis of faith.

Adding to the book, after each story author Sigmund Brouwer shares some thoughts on the theme of the story and the inspiration behind it. These are just as fun as the stories themselves and could almost work as a devotional if they included scriptures. The stories themselves are quick adventures with the characters we love, and fans will be very happy with them.

I have read all Ms Diamond's books and they are all phenomenal. This one as usual has good characters and great villains but what she does brilliantly is take you on a journey that emotionally challenges you on every level.
A woman is found in the water and trying to solve the mystery of why she was there and the intricacies of her life and who tried to he her take our two main detectives on a very awkward and heart wrenching journey. Something happens which is particularly shocking but the author handles it very well indeed with respect but also showing the emotional trauma involved.
I would highly recommend those who like police procedural to read this series. Start at the beginning with The Teacher, really, you'll thank me later!

Not what I expected
I have read a few novels now by P.J. Tracy, and they have always kept me captivated. I really struggled to maintain my interest whilst reading The Guilty Dead. Perhaps because it didn’t feature the Monkeewrench crew as the main focus, and instead focussed on homicide detectives Gino and Magozzi... or maybe it was the spotty storyline. One thing is for sure is that it wasn’t the most enjoyable read for me.
I found that the storyline jumped all over the place, featured chapters of text that weren’t really needed for the main storyline, and disappeared on tangents.
I did however enjoy the further development of the characters featured, how they are entangled with one another, and discovering some depth in them and their relationships.
Overall a disappointing and somewhat predictable read for me.
