Die Trying -- Lee Child

Audio. Read by Dick Hill. Second Reacher book. I listened several years ago to an abridged version of this and boy did I miss a chunk of story.

The Romanov Prophecy -- Steve Berry

Steve Berry's second book. Actually, it was written earlier, I think, than The Amber Room , but published second. Overall, I think I like it better, though it's clear that he didn't really hit his stride until Cotton Malone came along.

The Overlook -- Michael Connelly

Death of a Citizen -- Donald Hamilton

The first Matt Helm book. I read a number of these about 25 years ago and really enjoyed them, so I decided to return to the first of the series and see if it's held up. It has. The setting and attitudes threaten to become historical set-pieces now, but the descent of Helm from a writer/photographer...
