|title=The Dog Walker
|rating=4
|genre=Crime
|summary=In January 1987 it was only joggers and dog walkers who went on to the Thames towpath after dark. Estate agent Helen Honeysett left the riverside cottage she shared with her husband and never came home. A neighbour returned their dog who was found wandering, but Helen's body was never discovered. In 2016 Helen's husband, Adam, still wants to know what happened. He has an alibi, albeit a somewhat dubious one, but another neighbour was suspected. Steve Lawson couldn't stand the constant suspicion and drowned himself in the Thames: over the years that came to be accepted as an admission of guilt and even one of his children is certain that he was responsible.

|summary=I love short stories, so I'm always happy when a new collection arrives for review. ''A Fanfare of Tales'' by Patrick C Reidy promises me ''a compilation of short stories that highlight the adventures of diverse characters as each encounters unforeseen challenges''. I like this premise. So how does the book shape up?

The tensions between Mary the woman, Mary the Catholic and Mary the political force continue through three marriages, an unsolved murder and the thwarted desire to serve her people. Now it's come to this prison cell but while there's life, there's still hope…
