94. The Rose of the World: Book Three of Fool's Gold - Jude Fisher - 671 pages. The climactic conclusion of the trilogy. Holy War, torture, adventure, romance, sea creatures, a mage, and gods & goddesses coming back to their selves. We continue to follow the main characters and learn more of their adventures, and suffering. A grand conclusion to this epic tale.
95. Killer Weekend - Ridley Pearson - 326 pages. Set in Sun Valley with a woman New York Attorney General about to announce her candidacy for President at a tech convention with all the big names in attendance. There is murder, romance, a bomb, secret plots, guide dogs, tracking dogs, and a wild cougar attacking. I loved the overall story and some of the character development, but the chapter breakdown was choppy. Some chapters only lasted two pages, and I felt that the vignettes could have been handled in a way that flowed more smoothly.
96. A Rose For Her Grave and other True Stories: Ann Rule's Crime Files Volume 1 - Anne Rule - 513 pages. Several true crime stories from the Northwest set in the 70's through the early 90's. The main case is a serial murderer who killed his second and fourth wives, and scammed insurance numerous times. Some of these stories are quite gory, and Rule covers the full background of the crime, the victims and the investigation.
