Nora, Corrie amusingly team up again in ‘Scorpion’s Tail’
Book review: I love how Preston and Child don’t fast-forward Corrie from prickly teenager to confident FBI agent. She can be immature and impetuous.

Book review: Unfortunately, it mostly remains a tease in this fourth “Firefly” novel, which also hints at the backstories of River and the Hands of Blue.
