None but there are a few that are on the way (hopefully).

Mami Suzuki: Private Eye, Simon Rowe (#yeahnoir)

Another week in which more New Zealand (#yeahnoir) based crime fiction was included on the site. The final list of the 2024 Ngaio Marsh Awards entries is at at https://www.austcrimefiction.org/taxonomy/term/6082. Then there were a few reviews and some books read.

The Mystery Writer, Sulari Gentill (#auscrime)

A week in which rather a lot of New Zealand (#yeahnoir) based crime fiction arrived in these parts. I'm putting together a list of the 2024 Ngaio Marsh Awards entries at https://www.austcrimefiction.org/taxonomy/term/6082 - there's more to be added.

On the upside no animals died this week. And a new 6.5 year old Aussie Terrier arrived so no publishable reviews, unless you want some observations of how much wee 3 ex-breeding / not house trained dog's can produce in a few days whilst territorial issues are resolved. (Lots...)

Dragon's Eye, A.C. Edwards

Dragon's Claw, A.C. Edwards

Activity for the week ending 8th March in which the general all purpose clusterfuck that is our lives these days proceeded apace. One elderly alpaca died, we're looking down the barrel of a severe heatwave with fires still mouldering away nearby and there's no way I'm ever going to catch up ever again. Maybe.... on the upside, an inhouse library database is slowly starting to fall into place with the express purpose of trying to get my act together. Ha.

Activity for the week ending 1st March, 2024 a week in which we sat waiting to see if the bushfire situation would finally get us. Apologies if you're waiting for anything from me.

To the River, Vikki Wakefield

I Am Behind You, John Ajvide Lindqvist

Activity for the week ending 23rd February, 2024 in which things started well and then went to hell in a firestorm. Parts of Western Victoria are still under threat and this week's not looking great for many areas.

Death Off Camera, B.M. Allsopp

Activity for the fortnight ending 16th February on AustCrime, a period in which it took quite a while to get into the mood again.
