She set out for school one day walking through a wooded area and was never to return home again. Her body was discovered several days later, she’d been strangled. Her killer was never found, until years later, when the police discovered they still had her…

He also found a strange enigmatic symbol drawn on paper beside him. The symbol showed the Ouroboros, the ring of eternity having the serpent biting the ring with the…

I know it’s a bit late (more than 2 years, in fact), but I’d like to say a few, brief words about one of my favorite authors, Robert B. Parker
I was originally introduced to Mr. Parker’s work by my mother. An avid reader of crime fiction, my mother and I started exchanging books when I was a teenager.
The first Parker novel she introduced me to was “Playmates”, in 1989. Yes, I was late for the bandwagon, but when it rolled down my street, I happily jumped on…
