Changes Comes Racing at Jim and Sally
Jim Duncan has finally made the switch from patrol to investigations, and he and his new partner have landed a case on his first day. The dead body has been in the house for a few days before it is found, but they also find a greyhound in a cage in the background. Meanwhile, Sally Castle is making the leap from the public defender’s office to a private law firm. Her first client is an accountant accused of taking money from a greyhound nonprofit. As Sally and Jim investigate, will they find that their cases connect?

There are plenty of changes afoot in this book, and I enjoyed how that changes provided some added storylines. All of this let us get to know Jim and Sally even better without losing the supporting players I’ve come to love. The story is strong and kept me engaged all the way to the logical climax. In fact, I wasn’t complaining when I got to read the second half in one day. I even learned a bit more about greyhounds. If you aren’t yet reading Liz’s books, you are really missing out.

BRAIDED DIMENSIONS is the first book in the series of the same name. We meet Kay, an ex-professor now working in a job she dislikes. She is a loner and drifting. One Halloween, she goes out and enjoys herself. When she decides to have her own garden patch, she meets the same people and now has her own little group. On her way home from the Halloween night out, something strange happens to her, leading her down a rabbit hole into ancient Wales.

One thing I need to mention first... it is SO good to read something set in Wales rather than Ireland! I have nothing against Ireland, but there are other Celtic countries out there, although you could be forgiven for thinking otherwise.

This was an enjoyable story that took place both in the present and the past. I love the group of friends Kay has. It is full of paganism and mysticism, although written as both specialised and general day-to-day knowledge. The blending of the two lives is well-written, giving the reader Kay's sense of confusion as she tries to understand what is happening.

This is definitely a series so be prepared to be left with questions at the end, which will leave you wanting more.
