IF FANS OF CONNELLY'S HAVE BEEN A BIT LET DOWN OVER THE PAST FEW BOOKS HAVE NO FEAR ... HIS NEW ONE ... 'THE SCARECROW' ... IS A **** TREAT. HE REPRISES JACK McEVOY (SOME OF YOU MAY REMEMBER HIM FROM 'THE POET') AND RACHEL MANNING F.B.I. THEY PLAY SO WELL OFF EACH OTHER AND THE STORY IS A VERY...

Grey cell mysteries IMHO a "cerebral mystery" or for that matter any "cerebral book" is one that challenges me beyond just following the sleuth around. These books are rich in literary allusion, tightly plotted, populated with believable characters and not formulaic (although this may not...
