A Racing Murder by Frances Evesham

Rating: WARTY!

"When a jockey is killed after a competitive horse race, retired police officer Adam Hennessy seeks to clear a disgruntled rider's name." Oh look - another retiree coming back into the fray, because that has only been done a bazillion times already. Yawn.

Murder at the Lighthouse by Frances Evesham

Rating: WARTY!

"When a woman is found dead under a lighthouse, amateur sleuth Libby Forest teams up with her standoffish cat, a massive dog, and an attractive local to catch the culprit." But the solution is obvious: if she was found dead under a lighthouse, the lighthouse fell on her! Do we honestly need a cat and a dog in this story? Really? Couldn't it be, for a change, a catfish and a dogfish? Any novel with the word 'sleuth' anywhere on the cover is an automatic no. Or in this case anywhere in the cove...!
