What I read (or rather, blogged) in the last month

Over October I finally caught up with blogging reviews of the books that I read while I was away in August and September.

So this list is rather long because it includes a bit more than I read in October.

• 4.3, THE TIGER LADIES, Sudha Koul
• 4.6, THE DEVIL IN THE MARSHALSEA, Antonia Hodgson
• 4.6, STRANGE TIDE, Christopher Fowler 
• 4.3, RESURRECTION BAY, Emma Viskic 
• 4.7, A DEATH IN THE FAMILY, Michael Stanley
• 4.5, BEFORE THE POISON, Peter Robinson
• 4.7, THE DEFENCELESS, Kati Hiekkapelto 
• 4.3, A DEATH IN SWEDEN, Kevin Wignall 
• 4.9, PLAY DEAD, Angela Marsons
• 5.0, A DEADLY THAW, Sarah Ward
• 3.5, THE MURDERED BANKER, Augusto de Angelis 
• 5.0, THE WRONG HAND, Jane Jago 
• 4.3, THE EXILED, Kati Hiekkapelto 
• 4.7, THE WOMAN IN BLUE, Elly Griffiths 
• 4.3, SERPENTS IN EDEN, Martin Edwards (edit) 
• 4.7, THE GIRL IN GREEN, Derek B. Miller
• 4.3, SEE ALSO MURDER, Larry D. Sweazy    

My pick of the month though is  THE WRONG HAND by Jane Jago which asks a lot of questions about how we should treat child murderers especially once they have served their initial sentence. It asks whether they really knew what they were doing and whether they are capable of being set on a normal path. How far do we have an obligation to protect them from society?

See what other have picked this month.
