@piglita.bsky.socialIt's a fantastic book. As an editor, I refer to it often.
@piglita.bsky.socialJust finished the latest DS George Cross book by @timsullivanauthor.bsky.social. Wonderful, as always. The only thing I dislike about a DS Cross book is that it has to end. My husband said, "Wow, you really whipped through that book." Me: "Well, it's George. I can't get enough of him." Thanks, Tim!
@piglita.bsky.socialThat's true love!
