By special request, this week’s guessing game is book-related. I have chosen thirteen Detectives. It is up to you folks to guess the author of the books said detective appears in. I will add each correct first guesser to the post as we go along. Any remaining answers will be revealed at the end of the day on Thursday.
Good luck!
13 More Detectives/13 More Authors:
1. Jacqueline Kirby – (Elizabeth Peters, guessed by: Alice Audrey (whose reply was eaten by the spam filter. sorry.) & Beth (whose reply I saw first))
2. Betsy Devonshire – (Monica Ferris)
3. Kate Martinelli – (Laurie R. King)
4. Kat Colorado – (Karen Kijewski, guessed by: Dianne)
5. Peter Shandy – (Charlotte MacLeod, guessed by: Dianne)

11. China Bayles – (Susan Wittig Albert)

13. Adam Dalgliesh – (P. D. James, guessed by: Nicholas)
I know number 12 -Janet Evanovich. I love Stephanie’s adventures. Happy TT!
Number 5 Peter Shandy is Charlotte Macleod.
#8 is Cromwell’s heroine; 12 is Evanovich as the previous comment says. I don’t recognize the rest of them.
I honestly can never remember these things, my brain just doesn’t work that way. Fun 13 none-the-less it will keep me searching and thinking.
Well done, Brenda!
Yay Mom! That’s a great series, isn’t it?
Afitme, that name is actually not quite correct.
Keep thinking, Calico Crazy. 🙂 Perhaps I’ll try films next time.
Jacqueline Kirby – Elizabeth Peters?
Tempe Brennan is Kathy Reichs.
Midnight Louie is penned by the most excellent Carole Nelson Douglas (have you seen me rave about her on my blog?)
Kay Scarpetta is … shoot. Brain cramp!
Umm… Ummm….. think…
Patricia Cornwell!
I may know China Bayles, too. If no one guesses, drop me an e-mail and I’ll fess up. But I’ve hogged the list enough, eh?
1 is Elizabeth Peters
3 — I know them , but I have forgotten the author , I’d have to look it up. Ditto 4 and 13.
Susan, I put in Tempe just for you, so I’m glad that you stopped by. 😀 And yes, all three are correct.
Well done, Beth!
I think 13 is P. D. James
4. Kat Colorado is in a series written by Karen Kijewski.
Well done, Nicholas and Mum!
