An original detective story, made me Intrigued to know more about these so called "Botanic Hill Detectives" !
The description of Sherill Joseph's treasure-hunt thriller takes me back to my youth reading Gertrude Chandler Warner mysteries! An original set-up gives way to an intriguing, Iberian mystery, with youth detectives -- sounds like the stuff children's adventure movies are made of!
Nutmeg Street by Sherrill Joseph
Lots of fun for young readers when a mu!ti-cultural quartet of teen detectives try to solve the mysterious death of a local Egyptologist. Educational as we'll as entertaining.
Yet another mid-grade thriller from the Botanic Hill detectives, Lani and Lexi, Rani and Moki. Eucalyptus Street is set to be an intriguing follow-up to the Nutmeg Street stories.
An engaging combination of ancient Egyptian culture and kids sleuthing: I love it!

Kindred Intentions Rita Carla Francesca Monticelli
24 hours. 2 people. 1 target.
It was 10 a.m. when undercover agent Amelia Jennings arrived at the law firm Goldberg & Associates for a job interview. Her mission was to investigate a series of murders involving some well-known lawyers in the City. Her target, an elusive hired killer who had been of interest to the police for months.
But her plan is doomed to fall apart before it even starts.
In less than twenty-four hours Amelia will be the prey in a man hunt and her destiny will become entwined with Mike Connor’s.
Their intentions, apparently similar, may prove to be opposite, but the affinity binding them goes beyond what they think they know about each other.
One day to survive. One day to let go of the past.

Nothing like a thriller when the plan falls apart and the heroes have to wing it! Makes it all the harder for the reader to guess what is going to happen...
Fast and enjoyable.
beautiful cover :)
I felt like I was on Mars, the real Mars, and felt the desperation that isolated settlers will experience. Great read
Big screen material! This talented author brings the reader into a new world where adventure awaits at every turn. The descriptions are well though out, the characters pop off of the page. Don't miss this one!
Monticelli's original Italian has been translated to English for her Red Desert series, giving a charming flavor to the prose. Her characters are 3d, and her hard sci-fi setting is researched impeccably. Novella-length book one, "Point of no return," serves as an introduction, constructing the hooks that power future volumes and ramping up the tension and mystery.

Surrender (a preview) Chris Baum
A hairy bachelor (Bigfoot) decides to set off on a dangerous quest to find his long lost kin. He knows the journey will be fraught with danger because he knows he and his family are on the endangered list—a constant struggle to survive. But like an adage he once read in a book, “nothing ventured, nothing gained,” he is steadfast to not give up on his goal. Fortunately, and unexpectedly, he gets some assistance from two animals, one of whom is far bigger in his faith than his physical size. PoBo encounters many obstacles along the way, and his own faith is tested repeatedly as time runs out to fulfill his quest. What he at first thinks is the true meaning of his journey becomes redefined.
When we’re broken and we realize we are not in complete control, it's time to SURRENDER.
When we’re broken and we realize we are not in complete control, it's time to SURRENDER.

When a series of disappearances, suicides, and vengeful spirits cause havoc and death along a remote interstate highway, demon-hunting ex-priest Travis Dominick teams up with former special ops soldier and monster-hunter Brent Lawson to end the problem with extreme prejudice.
She writes stories that you can't put down. A wonderful imagination coupled with a love of history.
You can't go wrong with a story set in the Chronicles of the Necromancer world! I love her characters and you get sucked in from the first chapter!
Gail Z Martin never disappoints. Her books are fast-paced, roiling adventures that leave you wanting more.
I recently had the pleasure of reading Gail Z. Martin's The Summoner, the first installment of the Chronicles of the Necromancer. I enjoyed it so much that I immediately grabbed Scourge, the first book in her Darkhurst series, off the shelf at my local bookstore. Now I have TWO new series to finish reading!
If you enjoy fantasy, give this a chance. Prepare to be entertained for hours by a gripping plot, compelling characters, and a unique world.
A great story for fans of epic fantasy.

MURDER IN MOSCOW: THE OBLAST COURT TRIAL
A handyman shoots and kills teenager stealing apples from his orchard in 1958.
He says it was an accident. Convicted, he’d normally get three years in prison.
He’s charged with murder from ‘base motives” with “evil intent.”
That charge carries 10 years.
But the judge has another punishment in mind.
What’s going on here? That’s a moral, not a legal charge.
Is it an over-zealous judge or a Kremlin-ordered Stalinist show trial?
Does the prosecutor want to get a career victory?
Is it jurisprudential collusion or madness?
The accused could get the death penalty in this deadly game.

Couldn't put this story and ended up reading it far into the night. The day to day running of care facilities is interesting with the fascinating characters weaved into the story. Not just a good thriller, but touching, too.
I am really enjoying this book. As I read, the scene plays in my mind which makes it hard to put down. The story has gripped me for sure.

Really amazing story about what love can do with us. I like how characters are so real and so vivid, you drown in their story. Natasha is so strong woman and I admire by her. She decided to save her lover despise the fact that they are parted the life gave her to be with another man and forget all her sorrow. But she chooses the love!
Elsa Joseph's novels keep the pages turning.! The plot lines are fantastic, the characters seem real and believable and the writing is rich with description. The Best Kept Secret is a novel with mystery, thriller and romantic elements.
Elsa Joseph is a smart writer. I definitely enjoyed reading her books :)
Elsa Joseph does great work depicting the conflict Natasha is feeling over the two loves in her life. Her writing is original and well worth the read.
Refreshing to read a novel written in Third Person. Natasha is someone you can root for. As for London, what a gorgeous landscape to set
your story in. Been there, so the descriptions bring back fond memories. Good pacing, smart dialogue.
