Dean (6927 KP) rated The Oxford Murders (2010) in Movies
Apr 28, 2019
Good cast (1 more)
Good location
Underwhelming
I like a whodunit murder mystery and this had been on my list to see for a long time. It's not a film that gets shown on TV often but is on Sky cinema at present.
It has a rather silly plot of a serial killer around Oxford University who leaves clues a Maths professor and student try to solve. The scenes in and around Oxford University give it a nice setting. The lead characters are good actors but unfortunately they are let down by the final revelation about the murders. One for Whodunit fans only.

Fruit Bat (42 KP) rated Dead Bodies Do Tell Tales - A Jack the Ripper Novel in Books
Mar 1, 2018
Amanda Harvey Purse what can I say amazing I loved this book and I'm not just saying that.
The story line jumps between the years 1888 and 1889 the place London your hosts for this intriguing murder mystery are Mary Kelly the fifth Jack the Ripper victim and Thomas Dunn a writer and I'm not telling you any more because you really should read this book. There is so much I could tell but won't all you need to know is that Amanda has mixed alot facts relating to the Jack the Ripper case amongst fiction to create a great story.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2346 KP) rated Revenge for Old Times' Sake: A Tracy Eaton Mystery in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Tracy Eaton is shocked when her normally straight laced husband punches his boss. But when the boss shows up the next morning floating in their swimming pool, Tracy must get to work keeping her husband from getting framed for murder. This book is full on craziness, and so much fun. But the mystery behind the fun is very well thought out. If you don't want zany, don't even consider it. But if you enjoy wild and crazy, this series is for you.

Kristy H (1252 KP) rated Bootlegger's Daughter (Deborah Knott Mysteries, #1) in Books
Feb 13, 2018
Not a classic, but certainly an enjoyable mystery novel. First in a rather large series (up to 12 books now, I think) featuring Deborah Knott. Deborah, the so-called bootlegger's daughter, is an attorney in a small North Carolina town. As often happens in such series, crime seems to follow her wherever she goes. In this book, she looks to solve a cold case murder that occurred when she was very young... and her investigation leads to several more deaths.
Margaret Maron's books are quite engaging and fun-to-read... I blew through this book in a few days.

Alicia S (193 KP) rated Watching the Bodies in Books
Sep 28, 2018
A unique play on your typical murder/mystery book. Jake Boulder is no PI or cop, he's simply a bouncer in a local bar. Always willing to help out and play the muscle for his PI buddy, Alfonse, this time the local Police Department is so desperate, they too are asking for their help. Tracking a killer like this is far from easy and getting the dual POV on this one, as both Jake and our killer, made it even that much more interesting! First book by this author and I'm sure I'll be back for more!
