The other was The Ninth Guest (or The Invisible Host as John mentions it under its original title). They're both very good.Bev Hankinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127476456755776574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779338627192492408.post-4698931830695698332015-07-26T13:21:50.022-04:002015-07-26T13:21:50.022-04:00John: You might catch up to me.

I'm lagging on the Silver card, so I'm trying to catch up and get my two bingos (declared goal).<br /><br />Freda: This did seem advanced (particularly withe drug theme). But there was enough "Golden Age" to make me happy.<br /><br />Yvette: Yes--the storm plot is a good one.Bev Hankinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01127476456755776574noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779338627192492408.post-67294859766568822822015-07-24T21:21:41.490-04:002015-07-24T21:21:41.490-04:00Sounds good, Bev.

Though I'm glad you mentioned that the mystery isn't just about drug running - I'm not big on drug plots. But I always like approaching storm plots. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5779338627192492408.post-51071806745945569612015-07-24T19:44:55.505-04:002015-07-24T19:44:55.505-04:00I am surprised by this book when I see what year i...I am surprised by this book when I see what year it was written in.

I have all the Mystery League books by this husband and wife team but have only read THE INVISIBLE HOST. I think all of them except HOST are set in Louisiana.<br /><br />Curses! You have only four books left and will probably finish the Golden Age card before me. Nicely done! I have six more to knock off but I won't be able to get to them until September.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.com
