What I Read -- City of Buried Ghosts

I picked up City of Buried Ghosts, by Chris Lloyd, in a hotel where S and I recently stayed.  It's a detective mystery, and follows the genre tropes just as one might expect.  So insofar as that goes, it was not particularly clever or creative. 

Where it is challenging is that it's set in Catalonia, which is a region of Spain where a particular dialect of Spanish is spoken. Consequently,  the character names and place names are unusual, making them both difficult to pronounce and a tad harder than normal to remember. (At least that's the experience I have with words and especially languages that are unfamiliar.  I had a similar experience with my recent book on Indonesian history.  Or perhaps that's just me?)

Anywho, I didn't find much special in this book to recommend it over others of its kind, but if you're interested in a moderately sad page turner, this will get the job done.
