Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2593 KP) rated Voodoo River (Elvis Cole, #5) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Unfortunately, what he has stumbled into is a rather weak entry in the series. The plot rambles all over the place before finally introducing us to a crime that Cole seems to care about. By the time that happens, the book just has time for a rush to climax, and the climax is yet another weak dues ex machina. The characters are interesting and save the book, although I can’t help but roll my eyes at the way women fall all over Cole.

David McK (3832 KP) rated Resurrectionist (Matthew Hawkwood, #2) in Books
Jan 30, 2019
While <i>Ratcatcher</i>, in many respects, was a straight-forward action/adventure set in Regency London, this novel is more of a mystery/crime novel. This time, Captain Hawkwood is on the trail of body-snatchers - colloquially known as 'Resurrection men' - and of an escaped convict from Bedlam Hospital. Initially believing the two cases to be distinct, this later proves to be far from the case ...
Body-snatching was - and is - a pretty gruesome business, and McGee doesn't shy away from the full import of what the grave-diggers were involved in, with some of the scenes described not for the squeamish! Similarly, the early years of medical science are also touched upon - again, some of those scenes are not for the squeamish.
