This is the second in the Christie Bookshop Mysteries by Colorado author Ann Claire.

When a young woman dies in the ER after being raped, Dr. Sara Linton promises the victim she’ll find a way to bring the attacker to justice. The attack dredges up memories of Sara’s own rape 15 years earlier, and there are uncanny similarities.

Much to the annoyance of Edward Catchpool, he and Hercule Poirot are pressured into spending Christmas at Frellingsloe House, a crumbling seaside estate, where they are expected to solve a murder. The dead man was a hospital patient, and Frelly’s owner, a dying man himself, is scheduled to be housed in an adjoining hospital room. His wife fears he will be the next victim. The two detectives are at Frelly, at the instigation of Carchpool’s overbearing mother.

As she tries to protect Callan — and Link — from gossip and finger-pointing, Liss herself is shunned. Her probing into Ashley’s murder exposes family secrets and puts Liss in danger. “The Death of Us” is a good mystery with some unexpected twists and turns.Sisters Ellie and Meg Christie, owners of a bookstore in a Colorado mountain town, are conned into signing up for a matchmaking dinner at their local library.

“Be careful what you wish for” warns a subtitle on the cover of “Manor House.” No kidding. Nichole and Tom Booth have won the lottery and built the ultra-modern glass house of their dreams. But when Nichole comes home to find her husband dead in the swimming pool, she wishes the dream house had never been built. Is her husband’s death an accident or murder? You can guess.
