"Artists In Crime" is the 6th book in Ngaio Marsh's Roderick Alleyn detective series that I have been reading in order. Chief Detective-Inspector Roderick Alleyn has taken some time off work and just returned to England from Australia where, even when he is on vacation, he ends up having a case to solve. It was on board ship that he met the artist, Agatha Troy, who happens to live near his mother in England.
Alleyn returns to England and is staying with his mother before returning to work when a murder occurs at Troy's house -- where she hosts an artist school. He is called back to duty early to work on the case which is a little awkward since he seems to have a crush on Miss Troy who is now one of the suspects.
It's an unusual murder and an unusual case to solve and kept me entertained as I read half the book on a flight from Seattle to Kansas City and finished the book on my flight home. I love Marsh's style of writing and story telling and am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. pazt

"Castle" - The Complete Seventh Season
The Seventh Season of "Castle" is my favorite -- at least as much as I can remember of the others. Although murder is serious stuff, there seemed to be a lot more fun in these episodes. One episode has Beckett and Castle at a Dude Ranch to solve a murder and another has them on Mars. We also learn what happened to Castle during the months he'd disappeared. As he begins to remember some details, he wants answers and just asking questions is dangerous. Love, love, love this season and sad that Season 8 is the last season so I'm going to put off watching it for a while. pazt
