What Fiction are you reading this week, August 15, 2021?

[The King of Prussia]

10. "Find A Victim" by Ross MacDonald

Only just started it, but of course it's going to be excellent.

Previously read "The Empty Copper Sea" by John D. MacDonald. Haven't read any of his stuff for decades, and I'd forgotten how good a writer he was.

Had a brush with Covid and have had to isolate in the house since Tuesday. Thursday of the week before last I was in close contact with someone who subsequently tested positive. Tested myself - negative, and have had no symptons. But then I'm doubly vaccinated so there was never going to be a problem. The virus is running wild here, but not many are going to hospital, and even fewer are dying. Johnson's plan seems to be to get the anti-vaxxers infected so they either have antibodies or are dead. My heart has hardened so I'm really not bothered if they die.

Stay safe readers!
