I've finished the new James Lee Burke , great as always. Moved onto The Burglar by Thomas Perry. I've read Perry before but only his Joan Whitehead series (she is a Native American who helps people in danger disappear, great series) he has written many besides those. This one is very good so far hope its the start of a new series
