Since last time I've read A Hangman for Ghosts by Andrei Baltakmens, a murder mystery set in colonial Australia, with a main character who's made a new life for himself in the colony in a rather more definite sense than is usual.

Currently reading Things Unborn by Eugene Byrne, a police procedural set in a world where some mysterious force has started bringing random people from past ages back from the dead and society has adapted around it. He's a former slave from the 17th century! He's just been revived after being shot down in World War II! They're cops!

(Also, after some disagreements regarding which of the so-far-revived former monarchs had the best claim to the throne left vacant when the House of Windsor was wiped out in the catastrophe that preceded the first revivals, Richard III is king again. It's mentioned in passing that the Royal Shakespeare Company's warrant was revoked and it's now just the National Shakespeare Company.)

Very amused at that Shakespeare detail, but having read their 'Richard III'...
