Echo of the Dead: The gripping 19th installment of the Sunday Times bestselling DSI Lorimer series (DSI William Lorimer)

Product Information

Whether you've read them all or whether this is your first Lorimer novel, Before the Storm is perfect if you love Ian Rankin, Val McDermid and Ann Cleeves After a stressful winter, DSI William Lorimer is enjoying some time away from Glasgow. He and his new friend, Daniel Kohi, have retreated to the wilds of the Scottish Highlands to unwind. But what awaits them is far from a holiday. I think my main problem is I don’t plot. I get an idea of where I want to go but sometimes I am thinking, ‘Why did he do that?’ and ‘What is going on here?’ Hmmm… I’m a big fan of this series however as I continue to read I find Lorimer less and less believable :( He is a genuinely kind, caring and fair man, but he has no ruthlessness to him and it jars with his success in the police force. I enjoy reading about Zimbabwean Inspector Daniel Kohi, he is so interesting and intelligent - it’s brilliant to see a refugee written as a real character rather than what many authors do and simply write refugees as only existing in crisis. However his skin colour is referred to a lot …. I can’t recall this coming up with any of the white characters. Hmmm. What ??s? ibn Hish?m Told Us: or, A Period of Time, Volume Two ( By: Roger Allen, Muhammad al-Muwaylihi)

But the investigation is complicated by a spate of local murders, and by the rumours that someone is passing information to criminal organisations from inside the police force. Soon Lorimer finds himself in desperate need of assistance. Then he meets an extraordinary man - a refugee from Zimbabwe whose investigative skills are a match for Lorimer's own . . .The mountainous location and adverse weather conditions lead to a slower pace of investigation than if they were in the city. The vivid descriptions of the landscape, flora and fauna show that this is a very special place with a unique atmosphere. Echoes of the Glencoe Massacre of 1692 permeate the narrative. This is a small insular community where everyone knows their neighbour’s business, but a killer is hiding amongst them in plain sight. We get occasional glimpses into the mind of the killer without knowing their identity, so have information that the investigators don’t, but I still had no idea who they were. Lorimer’s team must work it out before any one else suffers the same fate. The Book of Travels: Two-Volume Set ( By: ?ann? Diy?b, Yasmine Seale, Paulo Lemos Horta, Johannes Stephan, Elias Muhanna) Alex Gray doesn't seem to have an upcoming book. Their newest book is Questions for a Dead Man and was released on February, 23rd 2023. It is the newest book in the Lorimer & Brightman Series. Alex waited until her kids started primary school to resume her teaching career. But she had to abandon it in 1992 after falling seriously ill. Not only was she struggling to stay awake, but she could barely speak. Her children thought she was dying.

In Darfur: An Account of the Sultanate and Its People, Volume Two ( By: Humphrey Davies, Muhammad al-Tunisi) Gray confesses her newest offering has a bit of a different flavour, but thinks that will make Lorimer’s fans love it even more. The Berenstain Bears' Good Deed Scouts to the Rescue (Short Story) ( By: Jan Berenstain, Mike Berenstain)The Berenstain Bears: Do Not Fear, God is Near (Short Story) ( By: Stan Berenstain, Jan Berenstain, Mike Berenstain) The Divine Dramatist: George Whitefield and the Rise of Modern Evangelicalism ) ( By: Harry S. Stout) A well written book. I found myself visualising this part of Scotland and it made me want to get on the next plane! I enjoyed the references to Glasgow because I lived there for a short time and that city has a special place in my heart :) Electronic States and Optical Transitions in Semiconductor Heterostructures ( By: Fedor T. Vasko, Alex V. Kuznetsov)

Happy Valentine's Day, Charlie Brown! (Short Story) ( By: Charles M. Schulz, Maggie Testa, Scott Jeralds) I absolutely loved this book and I wish that I had read the preceding books, however, better late than never, right? It is always exciting to discover a new, for me, author :) The Berenstain Bears, God Made the Colors (Short Story) ( By: Stan Berenstain, Jan Berenstain, Mike Berenstain)William Lorimer is planning a break with his wife in Glencoe, the scene of a horrific murder in the 17th century but a close-knit community today and with spectacular scenery. They will be accompanied by Daniel Kohi, a former police inspector from Zimbabwe with a tragic past. The three of them enjoy spending time together, possibly because the Lorimers sadly did not have children of their own and Daniel lost his own family in Zimbabwe and they have formed a family bond. The Expeditions: An Early Biography of Mu?ammad ( By: Mamar Ibn Rashid, Muhammad A.S. Abdel Haleem, Sean W. Anthony)
