Journal Entry 1 by Luanalara from Erkelenz, Nordrhein-Westfalen Germany on Saturday, October 23, 2010
Found in a great bookshop that often offers price-reduced books, I though this sounded interesting enough to buy for BC. At the moment I'm not sure whether I'll read it or just give it away. We'll see.
Backcover text:
Crime fiction obsessive Martin Reed is the proverbial butt of everyone's jokes. Working as a glorified accountant at Southern Toilet Supply and still living with his mother, he has become resigned to the world in which he lives - the school bullies now pick on him in the workplace, women still spurn him and his arch enemy is now his supervisor.
But then he arrives at work one morning to find the police on site. A co-worker has been brutally murdered and her body abandoned in a ditch. And the overwhelming evidence points to Martin - especially when he can't or won't admit that he has an alibi.
When a second victim is found in the company bathroom, things really conspire against Martin. The one bright star on his otherwise bleak horizon is the beautiful and sympathetic Detective Anther Albada, but even she's beginning to have her doubts about his innocence. Could Martin be guilty? Or is he just misunderstood?

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
I can't find the time to read this book (too many books, far too little time), so it finally gets the chance to travel. On my holiday in London I'll also be going to Kew Gardens. I wasn't there before so I can't say in advance where I'll leave this book, somewhere where it's safe from rain I guess. :)
