A DANGEROUS MOURNING BY ANNE PERRY
I received the first three books of the William Monk series as a gift. You can guarantee I will ‘eventually’ read all three. The first book in the series easily pulled me in right away.

Such a cute book. I haven’t read a middle-school era book in awhile and this reminded me of the good ol days. Would I recommend this for adults? No.. ha I appreciate it for what it is. Additional points for the fact that it’s all about reading and writing and protecting the ‘bad people’…
