Book review – Wolf Pear, Dianne Gray
Check out Roy’s review on his blog page Back On The Rock π
After reading two rather (for different reasons) demanding books I fell gratefully back into the arms of an author one can be confident of enjoying. Wolf Pear also had the honour of being first up on my all-singing and dancing Kindle Fire, a nice 60th birthday present from my work colleagues.
Dianne Gray canβt be pigeonholed. This book is, I guess, a detective novel with a large helping of paranormal.

Great review. I’ve read a few mystery thrillers with a touch of paranormal. If the author handles it well, it works and it sounds like this one does. I’m going to look for this on my next Vine list.

Nice review, Dianne. I love the description of the rosellas screeching, although at first I misread it as ‘tennis’ court for some reason (reading too quickly), but once I reread it, I got that sound in my head. π

I thought about that sound for a while when I first heard it and then when I was playing squash one day I thought – that’s it by a thousand!! LOL

Another great review, Dianne, and another interesting-sounding tale! I think you’re going to be the author that finally convinces me to invest in an e-reader. π

I’ve got an e-reader, Janna and I absolutely love it. I can lie in the hammock and read all day (when I get all day to read) π Some of the books I love are really heavy and it does make a difference being able to hold something light.
