Never Somewhere Else by Alex Gray
I have found a few of Alex Gray’s more recent books a bit disappointing. However, I know she can write excellent novels, so when I found this earlier book, Never Somewhere Else, on sale, I picked it up, only to discover that this is the first book in the author’s DCI Lorimer series and I …
Keep the Midnight Out by Alex Gray
Few Scottish authors have matched the quality and quantity of novels produced by Alex Gray over the years. I have read many of the books in her DCI Lorimer series, but rarely in order. This rarely matters because most of her novels work well as stand alones. Keep the Midnight Out is no exception. Keep …
Keep the Midnight Out by Alex Gray
Alex Gray is one of my ‘go to’ authors. I enjoy her DI William Lorimer series of crime novels very much over the years, so when I went to choose a book from my TBR pile recently, I chose Keep the Midnight Out. The story starts when Lorimer and his wife are on holiday. Lorimer …

Five Ways to Kill a Man by Alex Gray
Alex Gray comes from Glasgow, Scotland. I am delighted at how her writing has developed and strengthened as her writing career has progressed. When I read one of her early books, A Small Weeping, reviewed on this site at https://bookreviewstoday.info/2013/03/13/a-small-weeping-by-alex-gray/, I did not enjoy the book as much as I had hoped to. However, when I heard her speak recently …
A Small Weeping by Alex Gray
Alex Gray is a well respected author in Scotland and, although I enjoy detective novels, I had never read any of her work. My friend Dawn recommended her work to me, so I chose this book when I found it in our local library. Gray’s books revolve around her character Detective Chief Inspector Lorimer. …
