by Author Deborah Crombie
And Justice There Is None (2003)
First Sentence: He ran, as so many others ran, the black anorak protecting him from the mist, the reflective patches on his trainers gleaming as he passed under the street lamps.There are big changes in the lives of Gemma James and Duncan Kincaid. They are expecting a child together, moving int...
A Finer End (2002)
I would have given this a 3 but was annoyed by the typical christian misrepresentation of Wiccans. Wicca is the ancient pagan believe in the great Goddess and her consort. There is one rule-rede- of Wicca- And it harm none, do as ye will. Wiccans do not harm humans, animals or the earth itself. T...
Kissed a Sad Goodbye (2001)
‘Kissed a Sad Goodbye’ by Deborah Crombie was a really good book but also a slightly frustrating book. By intertwining a historical story into the current crime story it was frustrating, as the reader, to not understand what was going on. I knew, because I occasionally employ common sense that ...
In a Dark House (2005)
In a Dark House, by Deborah Crombie, a-minus, borrowed from the Library for the Blind, but also available through audible.com. This is the tenth in the Kincaid James series.In this book we have several things going on at once, which for a while is confusing. First, there is a fire which burns d...
A Share in Death (2003)
Deborah Crombie is an author I've heard about and recommended often, but I have to admit that I'd never picked up one of her books. It was time.A Share in Death marks the beginning of Crombie's popular series featuring Scotland Yard superintendent Duncan Kincaid and his sergeant, Gemma James. Boo...
Dreaming of the Bones (2007)
these are excerpts from my responses to a mailing list discussion of this book and as such they include spoilers. [On Lydia's letters and Vic's inklings of suicide]I didn't like Lydia much and I really wanted to see her mother's side of all those letters! The letters all came from a period ear...
Mourn Not Your Dead (2005)
This was not exactly my favorite of the Duncan/Gemma stories so far largely because of the way the relationship between Scotland Yard Detective Inspector Duncan Kincaid and his sergeant Gemma James was portrayed.In the last book, Duncan, who had been divorced by his wife before the series began, ...
Leave the Grave Green (2005)
http://avadhutrecommends.wordpress.com/Summary –Connor Swann, son-in-law of famous conductor Sir Gerald and renowned soprano Dame Caroline is found dead in Thames.

All Shall Be Well (2004)
The second book in Deborah Crombie's series about Scotland Yard's Detective Superintendent Duncan Kincaid and Sergeant Gemma James is even better than the first book!This book is better to me than the first because we learn even more about what makes both Duncan and Gemma tick. It begins when Dun...
Now May You Weep (2015)
Three and a half stars. I always enjoy Deborah Crombie's Gemma Janes/Duncan Kincaid mysteries and this one was no different, though I did feel it wasn't as good as some of her previous ones in the series. Now May You Weep starts off slowly - the murder doesn't happen until we've gotten to know ...
