It's a new month... time for some new bug fixes!
While Matt is still working on harnessing the book data that we all have contributed to, and making it available for searches, he's also been rather busy fixing other things, and even adding some nifty little features. Read all about it in this Announcements forum post.

When the call came in, Detective Peter Decker could hardly believe it.
A rape at the yeshiva up in the canyon and hill country behind Los Angeles! True, there's been some recent anti-Semitic vandalism but never any violence.
Not only that, but this was a strict Orthodox Jewish community, self-enclosed and suspicious of outsiders. Not much chance they'd co-operate with the police.
And he was right, Rina Lazarus, the young widow who'd found the victim and rung the police, tried to explain the religious practice that stopped them helping. An insight into a fascinating world coming from a frustratingly fascinating woman.
But, outsider though he might be, as a policeman he felt in his bones that the cost to the community of their determined privacy could turn out to be murderously high.

The first in the series, I've read several of these and am looking forward to finding out how it all started. Faye Kellerman also seems determined to teach me Hebrew and I've picked up a few words already.

Put the rest of the series into context, good read.
