New arrival:

The Hidden World of the Fox

The Hidden World of the Fox by Adele Brand, October 22, 2019, William Morrow

Genre: nonfiction, ecology
"Brand has studied foxes for twenty years across four continents—from the Yucatán rainforest to India’s remote Thar Desert, from subarctic Canada to metropolitan London. Her observations have convinced her that the fox is arguably the most modern of all wildlife, uniquely suited to survival in the rapidly expanding urban/wild interface."

In the Shadow of Power (Sandhamn Murders #7)

In the Shadow of Power by Viveca Sten, October 22, 2019, Amazon Crossing

The new summer house on Sandhamn Island in the Swedish archipelago is an architectural dream for its owner, Carsten Jonsson. It’s a nightmare for the locals. When a body is found, Detective Inspector Thomas Andreasson isn’t sure if it’s murder or a tragic accident.

On the home front, it's been raining for a few days now and windy and cold. We took a walk this afternoon in the park when it warmed up to the mid 40s, dressed in our winter clothes, of course. I may not be quite ready for winter!

    In the Shadow of Power looks good, too.

    I hope you have a wonderful week.

  9. I have had The Hidden World of the Fox on my Library Holds list for several months now. Sadly, some libraries in our system (and the one that has this book) will not lend to patrons in other libraries until a year has passed. I must prod our library to get it. Where I live in the Adirondack wilderness, I am fascinated by both fox and coyote, although we do indeed have an occasional wolf that has come south from Canada wandering through. Can't wait to read it! Best wishes.
