Turn Coat

Submitted by Clara Maynard on Sun, 02/10/2013 - 6:02pm

I’m still reading through the Dresden Files series. Although these are not traditional mysteries, they are a lot cover of bookof fun. I'm reading the 11th in the series, Turn Coat. In this one, Chicago wizard detective Harry Dresden finds Morgan, a fellow wizard, asking for his help. There has been a great deal of conflict between these two even after Harry was asked to join the magic-governing White Council.

One of the White Council leaders was murdered and Morgan has been framed for it. If Morgan didn’t do it, then another respected wizard is responsible and Harry has to search for the traitor. With the help of his vampire and werewolf allies and with his sarcastic wit, Harry is up for the job.

She read Three Pigs, Fox and the Crow, and  The Princess and the Frog.  If you liked them you can get them for your device. Or come in and check out an iPad with your library card to use in the library for 2 hours. These apps are all free or free with advertising.
