I had a blast with the first book, Barb. Now I need to start the second one. There are a few things that I’m really curious about. wondering how the author will play it.
It certainly sounds intriguing!
There’s plenty of atmosphere and action. I drew on movies and shows I’ve watched and really got some good visuals in my head. LOL
Ha, this sounds fun and that first book cover cracks me up!
What, isn’t she lovely! LOL
