Today’s I received two new ebooks I had ordered a few months ago when their publication dates were announced. One is the latest Simon Serrailler novel from Susan Hill, The Benefits of Hindsight. The other is the new Julia Spencer-Fleming book about the Episcopal priest Clare Fergusson, Hid from Our Eyes. Both of these are great serials set in England and New England. The estimable Susan Hill gives us a real life erudite and human detective, and Spencer-Fleming does a good job of describing the real daily life of of a priest. I love both of these series, and am happy to continue to get to know these wonderful characters, Reading novels that follow on one another with excellent character development is lots of fun, and you feel like you really get into the place and the people.
