And the Winner is...
I just finished 
Seducing the Marquess by Callie Hutton.The main character works at the desk in the library at his townhouse in London - he writes in ledgers. Does that count as an office?
Mod
Not really, JoAnne. There's a difference between having an office and being an office worker. Sorry.
I just finished reading A Gift of Ghosts. A main character works in an office.
A touchdown for the Storm!

I finished this tonight. It's about the events leading up to the gunfight at the OK Corral. So obviously, there are several murders including Morgan Earp, Curly Bill, and Billy Clanton.
Yet another murder (or 2) to score a touchdown for the HIT.
Shallow Graves by Kali Wallace 10/15/16This one....lots of murders and murdering people. I mean the main character starts off murdered! And that is NOT a spoiler, you already know this going in!!!

Here are the reading prompts for each team:
HIT Squad - read a book where the title starts with H, I, or T (excluding 'the') or
the author's first or last name starts with H, I, or T
vs.
Indianapolis Colts - read a book where the main character rides a horse
Your book must have been finished after midnight last night (about 7 hours ago)
to count as a point for either team.
HIT Squad - read a book where the title starts with H, I, or T (excluding 'the') or the author's first or last name starts with H, I, or T
vs.
Indianapolis Colts - read a book where the main character rides a horse
HIT Squad - 0 points
Colts -2 points (posts 452, 473)
Question - if you read an anthology and one of the novellas begins with H I or T would that count if the book itself was over the 150 pages even though the title of the book doesn't meet the criteria?

Good choices for criteria this time.
Congrats to the Hit Squad!

It needs to be the title of the book, JoAnne.

Drat! I had it in my head that because one of the words started with H, I, or T that it worked. I'll chalk it up to 'book overload' from last week and go back to the shelf for a new book!
Raised from the Ruins by Isabelle Arden and they rode horses. Do I choose? I guess I'll go with the horses.
