It isn't what I'd call 'Historical' like Citadel etc if that makes sense, but is definitely gruesome in some parts! Part Victorian melodrama, there is a lot of symbolism in the story - the birds, and the rhythm of waves of stormy weather which pass over the area. |

Just finished Broken Homes by Ben Aaronovitch, the fourth book in the Rivers of London series. I liked it better than the third book. Good books if you like a bit of fantasy but I think this series is best if the books are read in order - they make more sense if you know the back story. |

Thanks Det that is useful information. Sister is going there next year but I think her holiday included transfers. Bet the chaffeured car is a white knuckle ride. |

Det that book sounds good, although a bit of a marathon, a bit heavy to hold for bedtime reading I think!! |

Lamentation by C J Sansom is over 640 hard back copy pages long but well worth it. |

Vera I remember seeing and loving the film of Carve her name with Pride in the 50s. I think "The Life that I have is all that I have........" Comes from that book/film doesn't it? |

I regularly re-read books, though not so much modern novels. I've read most of Bill Bryson more than once, Terry Pratchett, Jane Austen and J R R Tolkien are favourite re-reads. |

Dermot - there must be so much information in your books that its difficult to retain all of it at one read-through! |
