Review - Man in the Empty Suit by Sean Ferrell


One of the most twisted story I have read in a while. 
Reading this book was like wanting to solve a puzzle but at the same not wanting to do so because it would be the end of a great adventure.

When a tsunami rages through their coastal town in India, 17-year-old Ahalya Ghai and her 15-year-old sister Sita are left orphaned and homeless.

Critique - In the Belly of Jonah de Sandra Brennan (version anglais)


Une version française de ce critique est disponible ici

Title: In the Belly of Jonah
Author: Sandra Brannan
Publisher: Greenleaf book group press
Pages number: 288
Genre: Thriller, mystery novel
Language: English
Synopsis:
In the Belly of Jonah is a fast-paced mystery with a likable protagonist and an intricately woven narrative brimming with bizarre yet believable twists. The first in a series, the book expertly lays the groundwork for Liv Bergen, amateur sleuth, and her love interest, FBI Agent Streeter Pierce. 
Liv becomes involved in the investigation of the murder of Jill Brannigan, a summer intern at the limestone mine Liv manages near Fort Collins, Colorado (a breathtaking setting that unwittingly becomes an accessory to crime). In doing so, she inadvertently puts her friends, her family, and herself at risk of being swallowed in the belly of a madman bloated with perverse appetites for women, surrealistic art, and renown. 
Perhaps a bit too daring (and at times irreverent) for her own good, ''Boots,'' as Liv's eight siblings call her, soon realizes she has a knack for outsmarting and tracking down the Venus de Milo murderer--and she enjoys it! As the gripping plot of In the Belly of Jonah unfolds, Liv Bergen takes her place alongside the best female crime-solvers as a woman with smarts, self-confidence, and intuitive savv
