I like to re-read some of my favorite books and authors now and then. I'm currently re-reading Under Orders, a horse-racing book by the late Dick Francis. The attraction of this book is that one-handed detective Sid Halley has resurfaced in the dangerous world of horse racing.
I've read most of the Francis books more than once, and I think this is my first re-read of Under Orders.
I just added Jean Lorrah to this list. I love The Vulcan Academy Murders; it's always close by, ready for another read.
