    • Bluegate Fields-one of the best in the Pitt series
    • This book is one of the best in the Pitt series. It is a page turner and kept me entralled to the very last page. I highly recommend reading this book and the Pitt series. I am reading them in order.

    • Uncovering the Unmentionable
    • Bluegate Fields has an unusual story structure. There are two investigations for one mystery. That device makes what would otherwise be a pretty boring book more interesting.

    • I am enjoying this in audiobook format. The only disappointment I have is that Charlotte is barely mentioned (I've listened to half of the cd's). Other than that, it is a very good story.
