WHERE MEMORIES LIE by Deborah Crombie is Book #12 in the Duncan Kincaid/Gemma James mystery series. I find this series to be very well-written, interesting, intriguing and well-paced. There are several ‘back stories’ involved which come together in the end due to the detecting skills of Duncan Kincaid and Gemma James and their staffs.
Part mystery, part police procedural, part crime drama, part historical fiction, the series makes for very good reading. The personal relationship between Duncan and Gemma makes an interesting backdrop.
WHERE MEMORIES LIE begins in Nazi Germany. DI Gemma James goes to the aid of friend, Erika Rosenthal, when a lost diamond brooch (created by Erika’s father) turns up in a London auction house.
I would heartily recommend this title and this series.

Where Memories Lie audiobook in series Duncan Kincaid / Gemma James Mystery Novels
As you can see from other reviews, the story jumps to different time periods, so you must pay attention to where in history – or the present – you are, but it is worth it. This is a wonderful, beautiful story and a great mystery. Many of us today have forgotten the Holocaust and have no idea of what happen on Kristallnacht. This book is no replacement for a history lesson, but it reminds us that millions of people lived through or died because of a horrible event in European and world history. It helps to remember that art and jewelry was often stolen from the Jews by the Nazis and their sympathizers, and much of it has not been returned. All of this history is tied up in a whopping good mystery.

Audio Where Memories Lie narrated by Michael Deehy
First, let me say that it’s imperative to read this series in order, particularly as you get further along. Otherwise, you would lose much of the subtle character interplay that is so much a part of Crombie’s writing. I have read each of the Duncan Kincaid- Gemma James mysteries from the first to the latest. Originally, I was drawn to them because I enjoy British mysteries, but I continued because I was attracted to the two main characters and then the increasing number of supporting cast.
While the mystery aspect of the book is well done, it is the background story of Dr. Erika Rosenthal which adds to the intrigue of this entry in the series. Dr Rosenthal is a friend of the family who was first introduced as a minor character in an earlier book. She is a retired Jewish academic who was a refugee from Nazi Germany but we know little more about her up to this point. In Where Memories Lie Crombie ties a current crime to the mysterious past of her friend. This is a common plot device with Crombie and it works very well. It’s like getting two mysteries in one while fleshing out one of the peripheral characters. In the meantime, you also get to witness the growth of Duncan and Gemma and their family as well as their careers with the London police force. Crombie’s books have become convincing police procedurals flavored by British culture which is all the more amazing considering that Crombie wasn’t born in Britain and makes her home in Texas. I have read a great many British mystery authors over the years and I much admire Crombie’s ability to convey British life and culture so authentically. Her storytelling captures you and the development of her characters into fascinating and complex people you want to get to know better keeps you coming back for more.
This is an outstanding, well written series that is in a literary class with Laurie King and Anne Perry. The more peope who discover Deborah Crombie, the more popular this hidden gem will become.

I began reading the Duncan Kincaid/Gemma James books in the middle of the series – Water Like a Stone – and was hooked but, to be honest, I wouldn’t have read all Deborah Crombie’s 18 in the series had I started at the first which Is good but not as rounded as the later novels and I held off commenting on any until completed the marathon. Firstly, I can say, without fear or favour, that I thoroughly enjoyed all of the mysteries. They are all whodunnits but centred around an expanding group of families and friends. While each book covers a separate mystery and murder(s) there is the recurrent theme of the family that runs through all the stories – and often murders come to Duncan and Gemma – separately and together. Because of the titles there is no need for a spoiler alert to the readers of the first book to know that Duncan and Gemma become an item and then a family – not as quickly as one might think. Having read a number of books that have been turned into TV series I’m surprised that no-one has attempted to turn what I believe to be one of the finest of the genre – I have not come across another series that so economically but finely draws its main characters. However, I notice that many of the current TV series have relatively few central characters and that perhaps the increasing cast of friends and family (despite losing a few on the way) might put producers off.
