The Couple at the Table
by Sophie Hannah
View in Library Catalog
book cover


The joy of reading a suspense thriller is to have bits of the puzzle along the way. This novel left me wanting. I figured out who had killed Jane in the first few chapters of the book. It was a bit too obvious. For the plot though, it dragged on until the last few chapters when SUDDENLY the main detective just pieced it together without explanation. Then, the long-winded explanation of how he figured it all out just about bored me to tears. It felt like in those reality TV shows when they go to announce who they've chosen and wait an inappropriately long time to just give their answer. Get on with it. In addition, the main character was a bit ridiculous. I do not recommend this book.

Penitence

The story starts with a tragedy. The story loops back and forth between the "current" tragedy and one that took place 25 years earlier. Forgiveness is a major theme - giving and receiving it.

#14 in the Lady Emily Mystery Series. The author takes the reader to Pompeii in 1902. A mysterious death takes the main character, Lady Emily, to the ruins of Pompeii. A murder has taken place and Lady Emily sets out to find the culprit in spite of threats to her person. A parallel mystery also takes place in AD 79 just prior to the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius. The author ties both story lines together at the end of the book.
