Hanging Softly in the Night
By: Maria Elena Alonso – Sierra

This is the best kind of detective novel. The time where the pressure comes jumping of the page. The kind that is fast paced and filled with twists and turns. The kind that you don’t want to put down until it is done. The kind with a hero who has a backstory and who is slightly damaged and has a complicated life. Nick Larson is definitely the detective that you are rooting for from the very first page, who is likable and relatable. I loved that this also focused on his love life and I loved his demeanor. I definitely want to read more from him and also more by this author!

I haven’t picked up a detective novel in a while but I am so glad I came across this one! Very realistic descriptions, interesting characters and surprises at every turn! I found Hanging Softly in the Night to be a very captivating story and very refreshing to the previous detective stories I have read. This book brought to light how people can be very secretive about so many things in their life and yet show a very different persona to the world! I loved being on the edge of my seat and not wanting to stop reading just to know what the detectives find next. This was a very riveting book to read and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a good mystery to solve!

Hanging Softly in the Night (Detective Nick Larson #1)Hanging Softly in the Night by Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hanging Softly in the Night by Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra is the first book to the Detective Nick Larson series and the first book I have read by this author. Nick Larson and Victor Sacco are investing what a quick glance might deem as a suicide, but with some skilled detective work, it is obvious to the investigators that ‘suicide’ does not quite fit the crime scene. It looks too neat to the detectives. And then more and more cases start emerging. Nick cannot help but believe it is all interconnected somehow. During all of this, Nick is also trying to work through the haunting loss of his ex-wife. He wants to make space for his new interest, Laura, who is also going through some very difficult things herself.

I am surprised how much I really enjoyed this story! It seemed like it took a very long time for the plot to really take off. But once it did, I had a difficult time putting this down. The author does a fantastic job weaving together this mystery combined with very likable main characters. Highly recommend if you enjoy a good crime mystery mixed with romance.

Knight In The Museum (Jorja Knight Private Investigator Mystery Series #5) by Alice Bienia

This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Knight In The Museum is the fifth book in the Jorja Knight Private Investigator Mystery Series. The writing of the book was phenomenal. I will be looking for more by the author.

Jorja is thrown for a loop when some guy tries hitching a ride with her. She knew he was up to something shady, but was freaked out when it happened. Then she runs into an old friend. Can things work out for her? The quote I chose for Jorja is: “Adan. Long time no see. Your events are getting bigger and better attended each year. Congratulations! Here’s to a wildly successful night.”

Highly recommended for Crime lovers.

This author delivers! The moody and broody detective is the male protagonist. His tortured-by-a-psycho-family-member neighbor is the female protagonist. A murderer is loose in the Big Apple, wreaking havoc. Sparks fly, and suspense abounds, but will the heroes be able to overcome their own psyches in order to take a chance on a new beginning together?

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A multi-layer detective story with several side-plots and twists. Detective Nick Larson teams up with his partner, Detective Victor Sacco to help solve a string of “suicides” that are popping up around them. It starts out with the first victim was found hanging, with no signs of violence, but not suspected to be a suicide. After other similar “suicides” pop up, the duo thinks they are dealing with a serial killer. While this is all happening, Nick is still coping with the suicide of his ex-wife and his newly budding romance towards Laura. Laura is also coping with from losing her own husband, at the hands of her own twin sister that she never realized she had…There is so much going on with this story that it is always interesting and intriguing, but at times overwhelming. With a perfect balance of suspense and romance, I couldn’t put this book down, and really enjoyed the unique storyline with familiar whodunit vibes.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Detective Nick Larson and his partner, Detective Victor Sacco, seem to be one of only a few cops that have not been hit with the flu at the 16th Precinct in Manhattan. This means that they are under a heavy workload that requires them working around the clock. The stress is bad enough from work but on top of that Nick is also having issues in his personal life.

When Nick’s boss hands him a case that seems like a straightforward case of suicide Nick cannot help but feel like something is not right. When similar cases pop up Nick begins to feel like this is a homicide and not a suicide. Nick is beginning to suspect that there might be a serial killer on the loose.

This book was action-packed from the first few pages. The characters were intriguing, and the storyline stood out as being different and interesting. It is obvious that the author did her research because of the attention to detail in the characters and the storyline. I look forward to reading another Nick Larson mystery.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was my first read by Alice Beinia, and it did not disappoint one bit! Knight in the Museum is the fifth book in a series, but this book was easily read as a stand-alone. You definitely do not have to read the previous four books, but I would recommend, or at least that is what I plan on doing! I’m always up to reading a great mystery, and this book was beyond great! I loved the authors writing style and it was a fast-paced page turner that I did not want to put down! Every time I thought I had figured out where the story was going, I would find myself caught in even more of the mystery. To say this book exceeded my expectations is an understatement! It is not very often that you find a book in a series that can be read as a stand-alone book, but this is one of those finds! Jorja (main character) is an awesome character, and I really enjoyed the story from her perspective. She’s portrayed as a strong character and was a very well thought out character in the story. She is adamant in wanting to find the answers to why several people have died. Jorja goes to extreme lengths to find the answers and on trying to figure out how everything is all connected. The deeper she searches, the further she finds herself from the real truth and who all is truly involved. To find out more…you will just have to read this awesome thriller yourself! Happy reading!!

WOW!!! Such an action packed, thrilling, suspenseful book! I had a hard time putting it down. The things Jorja has to go through to solve the case of the missing jaguar is crazy. She plays her character well and is inspiring to want to be like her, so confident in what she does as a PI. The book flows well all throughout.

Knight in The Museum is the fifth book in the Jorja Knight Private Investigator Mystery Series. These books can be read as standalones, but I plan on going back and reading the previous books in the series because this book was a good one! It was about Jorja Knight, a private investigator looking into the death of her friends father. It had mystery and plot twists, curses and more all around craziness. It was a very good book!
I am looking forward to more books by this author, and I would recommend this one to anyone that like a good mystery!

Hanging Softly in the Night (Detective Nick Larson #1)Hanging Softly in the Night by Maria Elena Alonso-Sierra
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Hanging Softly in the Night is a strangely morbid title, knowing what happens in this book. However it works, and I didn’t expect to make that kind of connection when jumping into this book. Wonderfully written this book makes you think. A puzzle to be solved. Striving to connect the smallest of dots to figure it all out. That’s what makes it intriguing. With a little romance thrown in.
Nick was finally reinstated to full duty after living through the suicide and guilt that comes with it of his ex-wife. When responding to a call only to discover it’s a woman death by suicide. Well at least that is how it appears. After autopsy and interviews his gut is telling him this is bigger than that. That this isn’t actually a suicide, but how can he prove it, when all the evidence and interviews keep leading to a deadend.
Then there is Laura, a woman he cares deeply about. Who’s twin sister is crazy and out to ruin her life. How can he protect her and do his job? He wants to be with her but is hesitant since he can’t always be there. Now there’s a chance that her sister may be able to access her more easily, despite restraining orders.
A subplot that I definitely followed. A subplot that made me wonder if she was connected to the main plot. Nick’s the one who landed her behind bars, why wouldn’t she want to play with him? People who are borderline psychotic and out for revenge enjoy games like that.
The author wrote Nick in a way despite everything he’s very level headed. He wants to do his job and do it right. He wants to protect Laura and do it right.
Is he able to close his cases and protect her?
Does he end up having a lapse in judgment?
Those were just some of the questions that came to mind that I wanted answered while reading.
If you enjoy a great crime novel, that gets you really thinking. This book is absolutely for you!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I got drawn to this book mainly because of the title . I love the Night in the museum movies and I was intrigued by what this book could offer. So, despite this being fifth in the series, I still picked it up to see what it is all about. This book falls under the cozy mystery genre. Jojra Knight, a private investigator is contacted by an old friend about a murder. He suspects that his friend Howard is killed whereas everyone decrees it as a suicide. As Jojra begins to talk to Howard’s daughter and digs deep into Howards life, she begins to unravel something else, a cursed item and some real twists and turns. I love cozy mysteries and I really enjoyed this book. Would love to read more from the author.

Knight in the museum is a new Jorja Knight mystery. This is my first book by this author and my first read in this series. Even though this book is the fifth book in the series I didn’t feel lost of like I was missing something as this mystery was a standalone mystery novel. It had it’s own mystery from wild, interesting beginning, to it’s satisfying ending. Jorja, a private investigator, is contacted by an old friend who knows someone he thinks she can help. His friend, Howard, he suspects, has been killed, but everyone else thinks that he committed suicide. When Jorja begins to talk with Howard’s daughter, and investigate Howard’s life, belongings, and the last case he was working on she begins to unravel a veritable bees nest she wasn’t prepared for. Did it have to do with Howard’s death? Are the other deaths in the area related? This mystery is in the same vein as Agatha Christie and her cozy mysteries. This was full of twists, turns, surprises, and lots of questions. I loved it and I can’t wait to read more of Alice Bienia and the Jorja Knight mysteries.

I grew up a huge Nancy Drew fan and Jorja gives me some Nancy Drew vibes. She’s a personal investigator called in to determine all the who, what, when, where’s of a suspicious murder that involves links to a pre-Columbian artifact. Jorja puts her own personal spin on her tactics, which makes this book enjoyable. This story is full of twists and turns and has some humor sprinkled throughout the adventure.

Alice Bienia is a new-to-me author and this book is Book 5 in a series about Jorja. This book has left me wanting to go back and read the previous books. I did find this one enjoyable on it’s own though. I don’t often comment on the cover of a book but I found this one to be especially enjoyable! The picture and the title is what drew me to this read.

This is my first book by this author, and I now want to go back and read the first four books in this series. This book can be read as a standalone, but once you get into it, you may find that you feel the same way I do. I didn’t want to put this book down.

Jorja Knight is a Private Investigator who is asked by a friend to look into the death of someone he was friends with. What she discovers is a tangled web of people, antiques, mystery and plenty of intrigue. While investigating the death she’s been asked to look into, she quickly finds other odd occurrences, and deaths, that she tries to figure out the connections between, or even if there’s a connection at all. The characters are relatable and human in a way that is often missing in books, without it going too far and making the characters more about their problems than their story. Excellent book if you like mystery and a who-done-it kind of story.

Slow start to a suspenseful build that is lead into a murder mystery with a thrill and turns so good they’re above so many others. As someone who came into this story mid-series there was no lack with picking this book up and quickly getting lost in the pages. It works as a stand alone but I’m thrilled to read the remainders that accompany this work.

Overall, a good read with a slower start but draws you in with time. This strong female lead with good character development was a nice read.

Jorja Knight was a once a crime lab analyst that decided she needed a little bit more excitement in her life, so she became a private investigator (PI). Jorja was hired to find out what happened to a man named Howard, who was also a PI, who had died by a fall however his daughter didn’t believe that it was an accident. I encourage you to read this book as it takes you on a journey that you could never imagine. From a Pre-Columbian artifact to an Art Gallery full of…. Well, I’m not going to tell you, you need to read it for yourself.

This is the fifth book in the Jorja Knight Mystery series. Thankfully these books can be read as standalone books however I will definately be going back and read the books that came before. The author has a way of writing that keeps you captivated from beginning to end. This was one book where I was reading and kept saying one more chapter until I reached the end without even realising it. Each chapter leaves you wanting more.
I love our main character Jorja. She is a very smart and fiesty lady who is like a dog with a bone. She will stop at nothing to solve the mystery that is infront or her.

When an ex law enforcement officer turned PI turns up dead his daughter isn’t so quite to believe the cause of death was accidental as the police claim. Now Jorja is on the case to find out what really happened and why he had to die. With ancient relics, maybe a curse and for some reason the police not doing their job Jorja had to walk a dangerous path to get to the truth.
What are the law enforcement agencies trying to hide? Was it a simple accident or was it something more sinister? And what happens if danger now decides to lurk around her? Can she solve the case before its too late?

A cursed statue, a murder mystery and secrets and lies makes this one interesting page turner

Jorja Knight prides herself as beginning a great investigator, so when she is asked to investigate a death of a police officer by his daughter, she is unaware what Pandora’s box will be opened.

As the adventure takes hold she discovers ancient Relics with curses, danger around every corner, more dead bodies and a target drawn on her back. Can she find out what is going on in time to save herself, you will have to read to find out.

This is the first story I have read in this series and although this book is the fifth in the series it did not deflect from the story at all. I loved the characters within the story and Jorja was a brilliant driver of the story and I felt like I was right there in the story with her solving the mysteries along the way. I loved the intrigue and the plot twists along the way which enhanced the book and the pleasure of reading it further. With the fast-paced writing and the gripping storyline you will devour this book in one day.

I will want to go back and read the first books and see how this great character was introduced to us in the first instalment in this wonderful series.

Knight in the Museum took me by complete surprise! Alice Bienia is a first time author for me, but the synopsis sounded intriguing so I gave it a shot. I am glad I did, as I have found a wonderful, new-to-me author. Bienia delivers not only an interesting, plot-twisting storyline, but an array of captivating, realistic characters. Knight in the Museum has it all; intrigue, suspense, mystery, history and ancient curses, hints of romance, and much more! While this book is part of the Jorja Knight Mystery Series, I did not feel as if I was missing any important elements by reading this one first; it can absolutely be read as a standalone book. Overall, I am blown away by the author and can’t wait to read more by her!

Murder on oak streetMurder on oak street by I. M. Foster
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I like nothing better than a good murder mystery, and I certainly got Agatha Christie vibes from the synopsis, and I.M. Foster didn’t disappoint.

I usually don’t go into too much detail when reviewing thrillers or mysteries as I don’t want to spoil anything! As the synopsis indicates, coroner Daniel O’Halleran is in need of a change. His job has him frustrated, and to add insult to injury, the woman he thought he would spend forever with just left him standing at the altar. He most definitely needs a change. So, when his help is needed in a small village, he jumps at the chance! However, he doesn’t realize how his pace of life is about to change. The past comes roaring back when he is asked to look into an old murder case that he just so happened to be a part of. When a new murder occurs, he thinks the two may be somehow connected.

The writing was fantastic as were the characters! The story may have started off just a wee bit slow, but once I got going, it was addictive. There were plenty of twists and turns, and I loved going back to the beginning of the 1900s. All those things combined made for a great historical mystery!

I am really excited that this is the beginning of a series. I’m really looking forward to reading future books as this promises to be a fantastic series!!!!
