One of the most romantic stories ever written By Christian Kober Youth is the story of a young marine officer, taking his first big trip, from England to the Far East. His ship is the Judea, an old ship, continously beset by calamities. The ships motto 'Do or Die' also fans the romantic flames of the young first mate.The captain, the first mate and the ship reach, despite all misadventures, the Gulf of Bengal, where final misfortune befalls them, their cargo, coal, catches fire and the ship is doomed.The story is set in the twilight days of the old sailboats. It is romance against the future, but it is also the romance of youth against the wisdom of age. Everyone who once has felt the pulse of adventure in his blood, everyone who once longed for the beckoning adventures of the magical East and of the Sea, will find himself in this book.And pitty on whoever cannot relate to this book.

Heart of Darkness is the Celebrity; Youth is the Masterpiece By JackOfMostTrades Placing these three novellas together was indeed a touch of brilliance. They form a natural trilogy, and happily, 'Youth' is the first in the series as it is to my mind the most profound, hauntingly, and beautifully written. It is a coming of age story of sorts, a brilliant one that operates on many levels: thematically, linguistically, symbolically, and logically to form a mediation on the changes of the peception towards life one goes through as one ages--the trope is brilliant, a man of 45 looking back on a time when he was 20, and realizing that the adventure he THOUGHT he had, was really a comedy of errors populated by bad luck and incompetent sailors. The writing is a bit elegaic, but the narrator is extremely clever--providing a 'meta-analysis' of his own jaded life now in relationship to his 'gee whiz' youth. It also raises a very interesting question. Is it better to maintain those 'positive illusions' of youth--living life with fond memories when everything was new and exciting (deluded by one's inexperience) or better to be 'wise' to the ways of the world, so you can function more efficiently albeit in a machine-like fashion? Perhaps in Conrad's day, this occurred faster, but nonetheless, it is an eternally relevant story and brilliantly and beautifully written. About HOD, enough has been said. Of The End of the Tether, the title says it all: What is the natural progression here? We start off with 'Youth' go to the 'Heart' (of the matter), and finish up with being at 'The end of 'our' Tether.' It doesn't get much better than this as far as literature is concerned.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. "To make you hear, to make you feel- and above all, to make you see" By Shalom Freedman Conrad is the master tale- teller of English Literature. In this volume three stories, from three Ages of Life are included. The first 'Youth'is about a maiden vogage to sea, and the last "The End of the Tether" about an old man in his blindness. The story however which has been most written and thought about, and is considered one of Conrad's masterpieces is " Heart of Darkness".It begins as a meditative reflection, a telling on the banks of the Thames to his friends by the veteran seaman Marlowe of a tale of exploration and disaster. He tells of a voyage into the heart of Africa in search of an enlightened European adventurer and merchant Kurtz . Kurtz has dealt in the deepest part of the jungle in trading in ivory. But what Marlowe comes to discover and see is someone who has seen into ' the heart of darkness' and dies crying out ,"The Horror, the Horror". Marlowe returns to Europe and civilization and tells Kurtz's fiancee that Kurtz's last words were her name.But the tale is more than the story or the plot. With Conrad the meaning of the tale is the creation of the atmosphere and the meditation on the voyage throughout .It is in a kind too of bringing us into another whole mode of being in thinking about our lives. " The heart of darkness" to the uncivilized African reality and it refers to the deepest recesses of the human soul, a soul which crosses through and transcends continents.As Conrad's great Literature does.

A charming protagonist, interesting characters, a touch of romance all combine to make for delightful reading. The children, the seniors, all ages in between play a significant role in making this an engaging and entertaining read. The mystery kept me guessing and there were a few surprises along the way to the conclusion. Netgalley provided an ebook in exchange for my honest review. So happy that I requested this one. I look forward to the next one in this series.

18 of 19 people found the following review helpful. Murder at Redwood Cove By Lola I received a copy in exchange for an honest reviewThis sounded like a fun cozy mystery and I am so glad I got approved to read and review this one netgalley. It's just a bit different from most of the cozy mysteries I've read and I really enjoyed it. firstly it's told in the first person point of view, this is the first cozy mystery I've read that did that and I thought it really worked well. Then there was the mystery, Bob the previous manager of the Bed and Breakfast died in an accident, but a group of senior citizens are convinced it was murder. So the focus was more on proving Bob had been murdered and finding the murderer. I though it was a nice twist and made for a fun storyline.The mystery kept me guessing, there are four suspects from almost the beginning and it's hard to narrow the suspects down as they all seem to be on the scene or have had access to certain information, so until the very end it stays a mystery who has done it and why. And then there are two delightful plot twists towards the end, which were so well done and where so different from what I expected. Bonus points for that! I love a mystery that can take me by surprise like that.This book had a fun cast of characters, from Helen to her son Tony and his adorable dog Fred and the group of senior citizens who help solve crimes and such the Silver sentinels. I really liked all these quirky characters and how they brought live to the book. The sheriff isn't convinced Bob has been murdered and I actually thought from his point of view it made sense why he stayed with that point of view until there was really evidence and by then he was the first to run into action. It was great to see Kelly, the main character jump on the case and while investigating and running the bed and breakfast she slowly grows fond of the place. I also felt like we got a feel for her character and we learn a bit about her past as well. I liked how she was dedicated to solving this mystery, but also was responsible, didn't rush into things and gladly asked others for help. I liked how she listened to the Silver sentinels and took them serious and also took time to pay attention to Tony and his dog. Tony and his dog where two of my favourite characters in this book and they also play a vital role in the plot.There is a small hint to a possible romance, but only small. Maybe it will be build upon in later books? For now this character was only introduced and I wasn't really sure what Kelly saw in him as I didn't really feel their connection. But like I said there isn't really much focus on that part, so maybe that's the reason I didn't really feel the romance.The bed and breakfast setting close to the coats made for a fun setting. Although I would've liked to get a better view of the bed and breakfast. There are some descriptions of the surrounding area, but not as many from the bed and breakfast itself. The small town feel and close knit community was nice too.To summarize: I really enjoyed this book! It's told from first person perspective, which really worked for me. And the mystery was done well and kept me guessing. I also liked how it started off as an accident, but there were hints he might have been killed. There are two great plot twists towards the end that took me by surprise and I thought they were well done. I liked the main character Kelly and the side characters brought this story alive as well. There are the Silver Sentinels, Tony and his dog, other members of the community, Helen and Daniel and Tony his friend Adie. Kelly was a great main character with how she was dedicated to solving the mystery, but also level headed. The coastal bed and breakfast setting and small town community were great too! All in all this was a great start of a new series and I am looking forward to the next books in this series!

Brown Synopsis:Bed, breakfast…and a body!If it weren’t for the fact that she’s replacing a dead man, Kelly Jackson would love her new job managing the Redwood Cove Bed and Breakfast on the coast of Northern California. But Bob Phillips did plunge off the cliff to his death…and Kelly’s starting to think it may not have been an accident. Bob’s retired friends—The “Silver Sentinels”—are also on the case, especially when Kelly is attacked…and another body turns up. Kelly has her hands full with overseeing the B&B’s annual Taste of Chocolate and Wine Festival, but she’s also closing in on the killer…who’s ready to send Kelly on her own permanent vacation… (Goodreads)Review:This is the first book in the Redwood Cove series and it was quite enjoyable. It had all the elements that I look for in a cozy book: mystery, likable characters, small town feel and, of course, a dog.The mystery is carried on well throughout the book and there are many clues to be found during the course of reading. And there is not only one mystery to solve but actually three, which was great. There are twists and turns to muddy the waters and I did not figure out the killer until it was revealed to me. It came as a surprise to me, and I really like when that happens.The characters are well rounded and well developed. There is an immediate feel of small town closeness and neighbors taking care of each other. The employees at the bed and breakfast care about each other and help each other whenever they can. I think that they welcomed Kelly like they had known her for a very long time. I felt that Kelly accepted the other people (not those from the bed and breakfast) a little too quickly and her concern for some of the suspects seemed unrealistic to me. She had just met all these people but she was very worried that one of her new acquaintances would be the guilty party.To me, Fred, the dog, stole the show. I enjoyed reading about his antics and his unbridled love and energy. I think the author perfectly described the devotion and loyalty between a boy and his dog and I felt good reading about it. The one thing that bothered me with Fred was the special ability that he had. It was discussed at times throughout the book but at the end of the book it was discussed again and then glossed over. I would have liked more time spent with this because it was a very important life challenge (I do not want to say more because I do not want to spoil that aspect of the book). I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a well crafted cozy mystery. From what I can tell, this is the author’s first book and, as a debut, it is very well written. I am eagerly awaiting the release of book two in this series.I received a free copy of this book from NetGalley in exchange for a honest review. I would like to thank NetGalley and Kensington Books for the opportunity to read and review this book.

“Owing to the sudden death of Miss Charmian Karslake this theatre is closed until further notice. Money for tickets already booked will be refunded.”Who killed Charmian Karslake, the famous American actress, on the night of the ball at Hepton Abbey? Who was the mysterious Peter Hailsham who had been present at the ball and had since vanished into thin air? What was his connection, if any, with the respectable County family of Penn-Moreton at whose house the murder had taken place?How Inspector Stoddart and his assistant Harbord solve these questions, and the surprising discoveries they make in the course of their Investigations, form the basis for one of their most devilish mysteries.Who Killed Charmian Karslake? is the third of Annie Haynes' Inspector Stoddart Mysteries. First published in 1929, it was out of print for over 80 years until this new edition, which also features an introduction by crime fiction historian Curtis Evans.“A model detective story... a good mental exercise for the distracted reader who has just received his Super-Tax Demand.

Who Killed Charmian Karslake?: An Inspector Stoddart Mystery: Volume 3 (The Inspector Stoddart Mysteries), by Annie Haynes

About the Author

Annie Haynes was born in 1865, the daughter of an ironmonger. By the first decade of the twentieth century she lived in London and moved in literary and early feminist circles. Her first crime novel, The Bungalow Mystery, appeared in 1923, and another nine mysteries were published before her untimely death in 1929. Who Killed Charmian Karslake? appeared posthumously, and a further partially-finished work, The Crystal Beads Murder, was completed with the assistance of an unknown fellow writer, and published in 1930.

A family of country gentry comes under suspicion of murder By Patto Charmian Karslake, celebrated American actress, accepts an invitation to a ball at the picturesque country estate of the Penn-Moretons. The morning after the ball she is found murdered.Inspector Stoddart handles the case with all his usual painstaking attention to detail. Everyone in the house party is suspect, particularly the male members of the aristocratic Penn-Moreton family. But as Stoddart digs into the past of the actress, he interviews people in all classes.These novels by Annie Haynes are a window into British society in the nineteen twenties with its varied class distinctions. It's also interesting to see how this British author portrays Americans.Who Killed Charmian Karslake appeared posthumously. It is a classic country house party mystery. The plot is thick with secrets. This is not my favorite Annie Haynes mystery, but it held my interest throughout.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful. My first, so-so, experience with Annie Haynes. By Bradley Friedman “’Beastly mess the place seems to be in,’ grumbled Sir Arthur Penn-Moreton, looking round the room with a disgusted air.“’Well, if you will give balls you have to put up with the aftermath,’ said Dicky, his younger brother, screwing his monocle in his left eye as he spoke.“Dicky was already seated at the table devouring kidneys and bacon with apparent relish.”This is how Annie Haynes’ 1929 mystery Who Killed Charmian Karslake? opens. I counted about six clichés right there: the country house setting, just as we found at the beginning of E.R. Punshon’s Ten Star Clues, the bluff lord and his monocled fop of a younger brother sitting down to a heavy English breakfast the morning after a ball. All we need next is a murder to interrupt the proceedings. But what’s this? Here comes Brook, butler at Hepton Abbey, with news that the house’s celebrated guest, actress Charmian Karslake, cannot be roused behind the locked door of her bedroom.Frankly, the more intriguing mystery here is the story of Annie Haynes herself, a sickly woman whose friendship with a noted feminist named Ada Heather-Bigg, whose backing may have helped Haynes publish twelve mystery novels, two of them posthumously (including this one). I was intrigued by the story of Haynes that Curtis Evans unfolded in his blog, The Passing Tramp, and continued in the introduction to this novel. So I selected my favorite title from amongst the eight that have been reissued by Dean Street Press and settled down to read – and hopefully enjoy - another lost mystery from the Golden Age. Evidently, during her lifetime, Haynes enjoyed great popularity and was, at least for a time as Curtis writes in his introduction, “the main British female competitor to Agatha Christie.” I have to say that the fact that Christie and Haynes were the only female mystery writers to be published by The Bodley Head and that this company embraced Haynes while Christie did everything she could to get out of a bad deal – all this made me a bit leery as I approached this book. I fear my forebodings were not without cause.It’s hard not to compare this novel to the Punshon mystery I just read (and reviewed previously: ) Both involve a noble family, a country estate, and murder. The similarity ends there, however, for a number of reasons. First off, Haynes’ book feels more like a police procedural than a closed circle mystery. The focus here is largely on Detective Inspector Stoddart and his assistant Alfred Harbord. They have a likable relationship, and Harbord is hardly a lesser entity than his boss in terms of intellect and ability. Very little time is spent at the mansion interviewing the suspects. Instead, Stoddart and Harbord move about between the village of Hepton and London, trying to find out just who Charmian Karslake was and what the meaning of a certain overheard conversation might signify.Frankly, their detective work did not strike me as particularly impressive or thrilling, just lucky. (Every place Stoddart enters provides information. Whenever he needs to talk to somebody, that person can be found walking down the road in the Inspector’s direction.) And as they scurry about, Haynes springs more and more of those clichés that I fear have given Golden Age writers a bad name. As late as 1929, Hayne’s writing style seems Victorian, both in the turns of phrase, the melodramatic trappings, even the characters’ names that seem straight out of Dickens. There’s the American millionaire, Silas P. Juggs, who made his fortune in canned soup and pushes his way about the scene while everyone around him rolls their eyes. Worse even is Charmian’s French maid, Celestine Dubois, whom Haynes endows with an accent that could spread hard cheese:“Me! Me! I know nosin – nosin at all. Two days ago Mees Karslake, she tell me to pack her sings for dis ball, and I am pleased, for it is triste always in this land of fogs, when one goes out novere. But if I had known - “You get the idea. Compared to her, Christie’s way with foreigners is positively enlightened. Here’s a speech under similar circumstances, made by Louise Bourget, Linnet Doyle’s French maid in Christie’s Death on the Nile:“What could I have seen or heard? I was on the deck below. My cabin, it was on the other side of the boat, even. It is impossible that I should have heard anything. Naturally if I had been unable to sleep, if I had mounted the stairs, then perhaps I might have seen this assassin, this monster, enter or leave Madame’s cabin . . . “The villagers of Hepton speak with their own thick patois as well, and Dicky Penn-Moreton sounds (and looks) a great deal like Charlie McCarthy, Edgar Bergen’s dummy. The stilted dialogue is crammed to the gills with 1920’s slang, and yet I couldn’t shake the feeling that Haynes really didn’t know who or what she was writing about. I want to say that at least a reader can get a sense of the times, but these people – the rich, the poor, the police – all failed to convince me.Worse than that, the mystery plot amounted to too little: the clueing was simplistic, and the actions and reactions of characters often bordered on the nonsensical. To take just one example, one has to ask oneself why, mere days after a murder, the detective in charge would let all the suspects leave town – even the country! – just so he could have a free hand in searching the premises. Doesn’t Scotland Yard get to search wherever they want with impunity? Ah, what do I know?The hackneyed clichés – and I have to believe they were clichés even in 1929 – continue right till the end, and I would like nothing better than to discuss this ending with someone, but I’ve spoiled enough. Suffice it to say that rules are broken and fair play flies out the window, as far as I am concerned.

Memories of Turtle is the unapologetic true account of my interaction with Omaha's meth culture. Spanning more than a decade, it revolves around my friendship with Turtle, who became addicted to meth when he was seventeen. Memories of Turtle is the inevitable result of living in a modern city where vice ferments. It should also serve as a warning signpost for current users of methamphetamine to seek help to end their addictions, and for curious drug seekers and future users to steer clear from this dangerous drug.

By IndianHills4ever This is a powerful and disturbing memoir, expertly written by Joseph Simmons. Simmons perfectly captures the sadness and missed opportunities behind his best friend, nicknamed Turtle, as a result of Turtle's drug addicted lifestyle. Poetic descriptive language elevates this above the usual writings about drug addicts. In addition, Simmons' refusal to judge his best friend serves to reenforce the wasted life and potential that's a result of victims of Meth addiction. This is a must-read for anyone who's concerned about our society and the influence of hard drugs on young people today.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Gritty and Haunting By D. S. Atkinson Simmons hits hard in this one. Through his perspective, we get a combination of an honest stark portrayal of what happens to Turtle at the same time we get an emotional connection to those events through Simmons' close friendship with him. It's the perfect balance (or mixture) of attachment and detachment, allowing bare horrors while evoking both compassion and resignation. There is some damn good stuff in here, very moving.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Red Reins by S.G. Courtright By Anne What a fun read! Many suspects keep the tale circling and puzzling. I especially liked the photos on the website that brought its unique setting to life...beautiful country and based on a "real character". Loved learning about the Hollywood history tied into the location. Very satisfying.

A Western With a Real-Life Twist By Fritz Holznagel You can't read this book and not want to visit Red's Horse Ranch (maybe going back in time to hang out with John Wayne while you're at it). Anyone who likes western tales will like this mystery with a real-life western setting and based on some true-life western characters. "Red Reins" is the right title for a super-colorful story that includes horses, action and (yikes!) some well-placed blood splatters. Warmly recommended!

“A phenomenal read.”—Sharon Sala, New York Times and USA Today bestselling authorIs it a flesh and blood killer—or restless spirits?According to Sophie the psychic, beautiful Edisto Beach becomes a hotbed of troublemaking spirits every August. But when a visitor dies mysteriously during a beach house party, former big-city detective Callie Morgan and Edisto Beach police chief Mike Seabrook hunt for motives and suspects among the living. With tourists filling the beaches and local business owners anxious to squelch rumors of a murderer on the loose, Callie will need all the help she can get—especially once the killer’s attention turns toward her.Edisto Jinx is a phenomenal read from beginning to end. The psychological twists are as intriguing as the vivid imagery of Ms. Clark's writing. From characters with just the right amount of flaws to make them realistic, to the eerie peek into a madman's mind, it is a gem of a story I didn't want to end.—Sharon Sala, author of Cold Hearts, book two of the Secrets and Lies trilogy. August 2015 from Mira BooksEdisto Jinx has everything you want in a good island read: sand, food, drinks, people you care about, beautiful sunsets, secrets, murder, and page-turning suspense. C. Hope Clark took me to one of the most unspoiled South Carolina islands and gave me plenty of reasons to want to stay with Callie Morgan and a richly drawn cast of beach-town regulars. Pull up a beach chair, dip your toes in the gentle waves, and enjoy!—Cathy Pickens, author of the Southern Fried mysteries and Charleston Mysteries: Ghostly Haunts in the Holy CityC.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Edisto Jinx is No Jinx! By Janet I am a great fan of C. Hope Clark, so I'm always happy to have a chance to read something new by her. Edisto Jinx did not disappoint. In Callie Morgan, Clark has fashioned a main character it is taking me some time to care about. I'm not sure what it is that makes this so. The writing is brisk, crisp, clear, entertaining. The mechanics are all there, the storyline an interesting one, the supporting characters an interesting lot. I've just had trouble warming to Callie herself. Still, that did not take away from my enjoyment of the book.Edisto Island is a cool setting for this series, of which Edisto Jinx is the second installment. The book centers on weird deaths which take place each August, deaths it takes former detective Morgan to tie together. I enjoy seeing my main characters putting two and two together and coming up with four when most everybody else has arrived at three, or five. Of course we know Callie will solve the mysteries in the end, but it's great fun watching her do so.I very much enjoy Callie's interactions with her teenage son. Well, perhaps enjoy isn't the best word. Perhaps best to say that their clashes ring true and hit close to home, and that I think that will be the case for many readers.Sophie, Callie's next door neighbor and friend, is having a hard time with the August jinx of deaths, since it always gets the spirits in her house aroused, thus giving her many sleepless nights. We soon begin to wonder if Sophie has really "lost it" this time, and if she will survive the month. We certainly are pulling for her, because she's a fun, likeable character. As is usually the case with Clark's books, there's soon a sizeable cast of well-developed supporting characters present -- just enough, not so many that one can't keep them separated from each other. This is one of Clark's greatest strengths, her ability to bring her entire cast to life.Another major strength is Clark's own background in law enforcement, specifically as a federal investigator. Her writing is never over the top or unbelievable, nor filled with excessive derring do that would make me question her credibility. In other words, she never takes too much poetic license when she writes, but just enough to make the story stronger and faster moving. I like that about C. Hope Clark. She knows when to take a risk by taking the storyline a bit farther afield, but she always brings it back into the believable, and I never even consider closing the book before The End.Clark succeeded in giving me the kind of experience I always hope for when reading a book for the first time: I soon felt as if I were a summer visitor to Edisto Island myself. I do so love getting lost in a good book. So now I'm (impatiently) waiting for book number three.

0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Jinx or No Jinx C. Hope Clark’s new Mystery A Winner By Cindy_Huff C. Hope Clark captured my attention again as I entered the world of Edisto Jinx. The residence of Edisto Beach welcomed me into the dilemma surrounding the death of Brea Jamison. Callie Morgan, Ex Boston Detective, investigative instincts kick in and stir up more than the residence of this tiny island want to deal with. A serial killer is on the loose but no one believes Callie.August is a busy tourist season on Edisto Island, add a few spirts tormenting Callie’s neighbor Sophia and some dirty laundry from other neighbors past and the story just keeps getting better.I appreciated the broken hero that is Callie Morgan. I watched her begin to heal amidst the drama in the first book in the series Murder on Edisto. Now a few months later Callie continues to struggle, grow and find herself again. C. Hope Clark settings are so believable even though I have no idea what a Palmetto looks like. I felt the heat and the sea breezes. I walked with Callie in the blackness of the moonless night at the climax as she confronts the villain. That was a definite-don’t anyone interrupt me moment.Rich settings, interesting characters and unexpected twists. The use of tweeter was both surprising and brilliant. I felt Callie’s story could end here and I would be content. But then again surely there are more secrets to unfold on Edisto Beach. Looking forward to more books by Hope.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. An Intriguing Mystery that Keeps You Turning Pages By Valerie H Callie Morgan is back again in C. Hope's Clark second book in the series featuring Edisto Beach, SC. This time Callie is investigating mysterious deaths that occur every August known by locals as the "Edisto Jinx". But is there really a jinx or are these accidental deaths just that - accidents? Despite being warned to leave it well alone, Callie begins investigating while someone named MyOutake eerily reports her every move on social media. Can Callie solve the mystery of the jinx and identify MyOutake before someone else is killed? Danger lurks just outside the shadows and keeps you glued to the book as you're pulled deeper into the jinx mystery. I dare you to try to figure out who the suspect is. This book is so brilliantly written that you'll be guessing until the book is almost finished. Then you'll be racing against the clock with Callie as she tries to bring down MyOutake and save one more life.

Unfortunately, the power struggle between our military and elected officials has distracted us, and we are about to pay a dear price..."What's going on? The sky's all lit up.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Very good sequel to an even better first book. By Goldfinger Storm Rising is one of the best political thrillers I have read. It is a great read. Heartland, the sequel to Storm Rising, while not as great, is a good read. I was hoping for Heartland to include a narrative on the global reaction to U.S. actions (taken in both books) particularly on the part of China. Aside from some passing U.N. references, the story remains silent on the global implications of ,and international reaction to, American military actions. The rather constrained Russian reaction, while hopeful, doesn't ring quite right. The credentials, background, and character traits of the new president present an interesting commentary on the type of leadership that a broken nation desperately needs and speaks to a widening hole in society. Overall, a worthy read.

SURPRISE SEQUEL HITS THE MARK By JasonP After reading Storm Rising, I didn't think a sequel was forthcoming because of Storm Rising's finality, but I was wrong. Naiman has stunned me with a story that is every bit as suspenseful as its predecessor. I must admit to not enjoying the terrorist attack which is too vivid and unnerving because it could happen. As in the first book, the characters are not plastic, but evolve with the unexpected events taking place around them. The new female president was the best character. Sure wish someone like her was in this year's presidential race. The descriptions of the nation's capital during the crisis are too real, as are the events following it. The last third of the story reminded me of the great political conspiracy movies of my youth, e.g. Seven Days in May and Fail Safe. Not a perfect book by any means, but I heartily recommend Heartland.

Scary plot By Amazon Customer Being a fan of political fiction, I read many of this genre (a favorite being "7 Days in May"), and, can give a fair evaluation of plot development and style. This author has a very distinctive approach to his craft- well researched detail making the scenes come alive, and, an intellectual structure to the prose which is very appropriate to stories involving characters of immense ego's, driven, and, of questionable ethics. The plot develops quickly and builds to a scary finish. The premise is troubling for today's world, but well worth the read, and, post completion, discussion within book club circles. Well done.Written to be read in a single sitting or vacation break. Enjoy and ponder before the next elections.
