Of Gold and Shadows

By Michelle Griep

MY REVIEW

This is a fabulous mystery suspense read! I always enjoy books by this author. This one did not disappoint. The character development is wonderful with both main characters growing throughout the story. Ami is a fascinating character who is definitely courageous and so passionate about Egyptian artifacts. Edmund is an introvert really, who has a wonderful heart.

The novel caught me from the beginning. The mystery and intrigue is incredibly well written, and it kept me turning the pages well into the night. There are several things going on throughout the book and a twist or two at the end. One came as quite a surprise to this reader.

I really enjoyed the faith theme in this story. It is very well woven throughout the story…and winding up with “Serving God is the legacy…” was a wonderful faith approach to this story.

This book has wonderful mystery, thrilling suspense, and incredibly well done characters. No historical fiction fan will want to miss this story.

I received this book from the publisher. All opinions are my own.

The Sleuth of Blackfriars Lane

MY REVIEW

This is such a fun story! It’s full of action, questions of life, friendship fun, mystery and suspense. I have loved this series, and this book is no different. 

I really enjoyed the main and secondary characters in this book. They have faults, difficulties, and have such a normal kinda life, but they definitely don’t have normal kind of jobs and scrapes they enjoy. 

The storyline is interesting, and I really like that this takes place among normal folk-no ritzy balls and gowns. It’s been said they take place in Dicken’s London. That statement really is true. He is probably my favorite classic writer, and I thoroughly enjoy that this series doesn’t take place among the London elite.

There is so much to like about this book and this series. Good characters, intriguing storylines, faith themes, and just some wonderful fun. I’m rather sad to leave these characters behind, but I’m glad to have all three on my forever shelves.
