10 Folly by Alan Titchmarsh Loving couple uncover deceit when delving into their families’ shared past

So this is what the English read this rainy Fall, in the midst of the international financial crisis. Lots of crime, some historical fiction, and some good fiction novels with great charm. Good books that provide something that hopefully counterbalances the bad news most of us are otherwise surrounded with.

Azincourt by Bernard Cornwell and The Brass Verdict, by Michael Connelly, are both high on my reading list. I would love somebody to review the rest of these great books for me! Just email it to me!
