Here’s a few more I finished reading recently. I’ve now read everything by Aline Templeton - great mysteries set in Scotland, and by Shari Lapena, a Canadian author whose books are economical and easy to read, and all the Jackson Brodie mysteries by Kate Atkinson, which are so well written! 2/2

Covers of three books: “Death At The Sign Of The Rook” by Kate Atkinson, “Not A Happy Family” by Shari Lapena, and “Blind Eye” by Aline Templeton.

I just read “The Darkness” by Ragnar Jónasson. It gives a good taste of Iceland and is a good murder mystery. The ending was the most surprising of any novel I’ve read in a very long time.

DoorDash has ripped off more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers. We’re making them pay $131.5 million — the largest worker settlement in City history. This is New York, where hard work pays and greed will cost you.

DoorDash messed up.
They repeatedly left more than 260,000 NYC delivery workers underpaid or paid late, causing them immense stress and financial difficulty.
That's unacceptable.
We've secured a $131.5M settlement from
DoorDash - the largest worker settlement in NYC history and largest delivery worker settlement in
American municipal history.
Every worker will be paid what they are owed, and every company will be forced to abide by the laws of this city.
