That's on my list - I had to finally stop myself from reading
library books and move on to books I own. I am reading in
chronological order, I have still to read: Fugitive Pigeon,
Spy in the Ointment, Two Much, I Gave at the Office, Curious
Facts on the Way to My Execution, all 4 of the Tucker Coe
books, 3 of the Jason Holt books (I've read the first
already), Why Me?, and others.
