• Buried, by Mark Billingham (Little, Brown UK)And I don’t even want to consider how many entries in the wonderful Akashic Books Noir Series I still have waiting on my plate. (I think I’m almost done with Laura Lippman’s Baltimore Noir.) If I actually believed in making New Year’s resolutions, I would probably commit myself to reading all of the aforementioned novels. However, I know that the next few months will distract me with new books, and by the time December 2007 rolls around, there might still be a straggler or two (or three) from this list of 13 begging for my notice. All in good time, my friends, all in good time.
• Bust, by Ken Bruen and Jason Starr (Hard Case Crime)
• The Casebook of Sidney Zoom, by Erle Stanley Gardner (Crippen & Landru)
• Cold Kill, by David Lawrence (Thomas Dunne Books/St. Martin’s Minotaur)
• Darkness & Light, by John Harvey (Otto Penzler/Harcourt)
• A Field of Darkness, by Cornelia Read (Mysterious Press)
• Gardens of the Dead, by William Brodrick (Viking)

Jeff,
Keeping track of all the books you've read is impressive in itself!
