Since we generally tend to agree with each other, except on supernatural hybrids and gore, I'm confident you'll like <i>The 3-13 Murders</i>. So I hope your copy arrives soon and you don't let us wait too long for your take on it! <br /><br />"<i>The book I'm reading is all about tax law and crime fighting accountants! It's the only book i've ever read that has made taxes exciting for me.</i>"<br /><br />Sounds like Emma Lathen, a pseudonym of two economists, but did they write semi-though hardboiled novels? Anyway, looking forward to your review of it.

Very happy I acted quickly!<br /><br />BTW, I'm reading a very good semi-tough hardboiled mystery right now and hope to have a review posted in time for April 15, the day federal income taxes are due in the hands of the IRS in our country. Why April 15? The book I'm reading is all about tax law and crime fighting accountants! It's the only book i've ever read that has made taxes exciting for me.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5516189026477178777.post-22258260596102098352019-04-12T20:02:24.661+02:002019-04-12T20:02:24.661+02:00Wow!

I cannot resist temptation and though I vowed to stop spending money on used books until the autumn I just ordered one of only two copies left for sale on-line. I hope someone didn't beat me to this one. It didn't come up in one search (my go-to site) but did in another. Possibly it was ordered ahead of me via a different website. [...sigh...] Ah well, I'll await the confirmation to see if I lucked out or not.J F Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06473487417479127354noreply@blogger.com
