Whodunits

November Pleasures
The prolific James Patterson, who recently weighed in as a non-fiction writer, delivers his latest Alex Cross thriller next week. In this case, Alex traces a murderer across Africa.

Also next week, the mother-daughter team of Mary & Carol Higgins Clark offer up their mystery-light holiday book, Dashing Through the Snow.

Truth be told, we're mainly waiting for P.D. James's latest Inspector Adam Dalgliesh mystery, The Private Patient. Buzz has it this book will be the last in the Dalgliesh series; we're preparing to love the book and mourn the loss of one of our favorite Scotland Yard detectives.
