$25 Amazon/PP-1-WW-Murdered for Art-Dianne Harman Ends 4/10

Monday, March 25, 2024



I am forever grateful that I never decided to collect art after reading this!! My Mom was an artist but never attempted to sell any of her works--she did have an art show once. The people who do seem to be cut throats--at least that is how this novel portrays them!!

Chef Dani Rosetti was asked by an old friend to cater a dinner for a prestigious art auction. She accepted. The menu she created was perfect--unfortunately there was a lot of animosity among the attendees. Luckily her sou chef (also a PI) was with her--because the most disliked of the guests was found murdered.

With so many suspects-how would he ever figure out who did it?

It has been a while but there are some really delicious recipes at the end of this one--Now if I was only a better cook then I am!!

About the Book: (from Amazon)

The serene Napa Valley sets the stage for a thrilling Plein Air art auction mystery that turns deadly.

Chef Dani Rosetti, transformed into an amateur sleuth, along with her sous-chef Arthur, the owner of an international private investigation company, steps into the high-stakes world of Plein Air art at Thornton’s Auction House. Their culinary prowess is unexpectedly matched by their knack for investigation.

As they delve into a plot filled with forgery, deceit, and betrayal, they uncover the dark underbelly of the art world, where authenticity and fraud blur. With every brushstroke hiding a story and every canvas a secret, Dani, Arthur, and his right-hand man, Matt, face the ultimate challenge: solving a mystery where art and ambition had led to murder.

Book Review-The Serpents Heir-Vlad V Imakaev

Thursday, March 21, 2024



Be prepared to be shocked--be prepared to not want to beleive--until you have no choice! This novel plays with your mind in a very unusual way. The twists and turns are many and numerous. Lots of really bad guys--and some good guys. The ending threw me for a loop!!

About the Book: (from Amazon)

Maya Polyanski, a prominent journalist from the Chicago Voice, embarks on a journey to a quaint Minnesota town to investigate a series of supposed miracles. These occurrences revolve around a young boy who appears to possess extraordinary abilities—he heals the sick, brings a child back to life, and even walks on water.

A cynic, Maya sets out to expose him as a potential fraud. However, as she delves deeper into her investigation, she begins to wrestle with the implications of her discoveries. Is this young boy truly a divine force, or is there a hidden agenda behind the unfolding events?

This gripping new story by Vlad V. Imakaev will have you flipping through the pages, leading from the heart of rural America all the way to the White House, in an epic battle between good and evil. It leaves Maya Polyanski and readers alike questioning the boundaries of faith and skepticism.

She also writes non-fiction if you are interested in that genre. By clicking on her Website you can view all the books she has written so far--and there are a lot of them!!

The Vision Chronicles series ~~ "A Romantic Suspense Series with a Psychic Twist"-was the first series that I read--it was definitely a winner.

The 2121 Trilogy -- "A clean dystopian post-apocalyptic Fantasy series for all ages with a dash of horror".

An Alec Winters Series -- Definitely Dark Fiction!!

Serena McKay Crime Novels -- Also Dark Fiction --

Snapped Series: "Have you ever wondered why a normally healthy person snaps and does something so out of character that we think their actions are insane? This psychological suspense series delves into the theory that sometimes the mental state accumulates over time and sometimes it happens suddenly or out of the blue. Take a ride on the dark side with someone who simply SNAPS because they cannot take it anymore!" I definitely enjoyed each of the books in this series!!
