The Adventures Of Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
A collection of a dozen short stories chronicling the methodologies and cases of Sherlock Holmes from the point of view of his closest friend and ally Dr. Watson. These stories at first seems a little silly but kept growing on me so that I got to the point I was excited about the next. Very enjoyable. The Jeremy Brett representation of these tales on PBS is the best acting I've ever been exposed to, yet these short stories hold their own by capturing the details of everyday life in the late 1800's.

Mortal Prey by Greg Iles
Early 90's erotic social network is breached by a charismatic killer. As expected, Iles writes very well, and all in all it's a good read but the story is long and disjointed.
Rolling Thunder by Chris Grabenstein
The latest in the series about Danny and his boy scout partner and probably the weakest in the series. Just OK.
