These are a few of the books I have on my desk that are waiting patiently to be read.
Don't Eat Me by Colin Cotterill is the most unusual mystery series set in Laos and featuring the fictional Dr. Siri Paiboon, former national coroner of Laos, The books reflect the country's people, their beliefs, superstitions, and interesting cultural slants and is written tongue in cheek, with a great deal of irony and humor.
The Labyrinth of the Spirits by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, September 18, 2018. The final book in the cycle of novels that began with The Shadow of the Wind.

One September evening in 1785, the merchant Jonah Hancock hears urgent knocking on his front door. One of his captains is waiting eagerly on the step. He has sold Jonah’s ship for what appears to be a mermaid.
