Carol (carolfromnc) My first book of 2020 will be The Lewis Man by Peter May. I’m 90 or so pages in and delighted.

Read that book quite a few years ago. Will be interested to hear how you find The Chess Men.

I ended up not being a huge fan. A little too much romance, family relationships, stock characters for my taste, which is a little more dark; however, I’d be willing to try another. He did quite a good job depicting a character with dementia. Is The Chess Men your favorite May?
