The Silencing of the North by G. R. Matthews – Review
It is a colder book in many ways, but also a richer one, and by the final page, I was more than ready to follow this story wherever it goes next.

This time I thought I’d do an analysis of Murder, She Wrote, one of my all-time favorite TV shows.
