Thank you to Kerrie for a meme which has inspired me to reflect and read with regard to crime fiction that I would not have done without participating in the Crime Fiction Alphabet.
Bill - Thanks for doing this summing-up. I'll interested in your retrospective on the meme.
ReplyDeleteBill, I missed your review of "The Innocence of
ReplyDeleteFather Brown" and read it now. It's been years since I read the series by Chesterton and hope to read some his books which are in public domain.
Margot: Thanks for the comment. I always appreciate you dropping by the blog.
ReplyDeletePrashant: Thanks for commenting. Father Brown is a wonderful character. I wish comparable characters were possible in our current times.
