The Broken Places
Ace is the place for a good read.
Pronto
Filling in the gaps with Raylan and Elmore.
Mind Hunter: Inside the FBI’s Elite Serial Crime Unit
Not real light reading at the end of the day.
Hyper-V configuration
After installing an External Network switch on Hyper-V for Win 8 64bit, the virtual switch did not display any connectivity in the Network Connections tab in Control Panel.
For some reason, you need to disable, then enable the virtual switch, in order for the changes to take place.
I also ran into a weird issue getting a Cisco VPN client to work through the virtual switch – need to configure the vpn client to “Allow Local LAN access” under the Transport tab
How to disable the Windows 8 lock screen
Hit the Start key, type gpedit.msc, and press Enter. This will open the Local Group Policy Editor.
Navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Control Panel > Personalization
Double click “Do not display the lock screen,” and select Enabled from the dialog that pops up. Click OK.
Night Moves (Doc Ford)
An odd series but seems to capture the Florida spirit.
The Prophet
Mid-tier author in this genre. Pretty weak ending, but a decent read overall.
Killing the Blues
Weakest of the surrogates, but it is what it is.
Raylan
Pretty good way to go out.
Riding the Rap
Nothing like finding an un-read Elmore on the library shelf.
Blood Trail
Perhaps my expectations are too high, but this one seemed a bit slack.
Taken
Crais is a little too cute with this one. Hope he is not getting bored.
The Black Box
Bosch keeps it moving, though the ending is a bit jumbled.
Provenance: How a Con Man and a Forger Rewrote the History of Modern Art
Truth is stranger than fiction. Really enjoyable read.

Praying for Sleep
Some decent twists.
Bad Blood
Would have been a good magazine article – really had to stretch to fill the covers.
Chasing the Dime
A hairball by Connelly is better than most, but it is still a hairball.
Separation of Power
These books become much less tedious after you figure out which chapters to skip.
Demolition Angel
Crais has a handle on his female protagonist. Beats Sunny Randall any day.
