Death at Fakenham Races by Ross Greenwood
Dear friends. Prepare to be immersed in the world of horse racing in the latest crime thriller from one of my favourite writers, Ross Greenwood.
I must confess I have never been remotely interested in horse racing, but Greenwood brings it to life as DI Ashley Knight investigates murder at a race course.
Join me on the blog tour for Death at Fakenham Races.

The Cardinal by Alison Weir
Dear friends. What do we know of Cardinal Wolsey, right hand man to Henry VIII until he fell out of favour?
Best selling historical novelist Alison Weir brings the Cardinal to life in her new book. We learn about a man whose religious calling was somewhat reluctantly accepted; a man who nurtured a secret love, and who lost everything dear to him.
Today is my turn on the book blog tour for The Cardinal.

Maximising a Galley Kitchen
Dear friends. We're just completed a kitchen renovation. It's the first time I've ever had a brand new kitchen.

It's a small galley kitchen, typical of this era of house (late 1920s).
