Queen of All She Reads

If you like books set in foreign countries with colorful characters
and like to expand your knowledge of other cultures,
this is a series you must read!
The story’s pace is fairly even and the authors provide the reader
with the history of the small vineyards located within the city of Paris itself along the way.

SYNOPSIS

Everything is possible and nothing is certain in Bamako. A man torn between two continents finds himself in a dangerous confrontation between tradition and corruption. Solo is a former cop who ran away from a dark past in France to start his life over again in Bamako, Mali, as a PI. An ordinary case turns out to be not so ordinary. The drug mule gets her throat slit. The French lawyer is too beautiful and too well-informed. The cocaine is too plentiful. This is hard-boiled noir with a modern twist set in West Africa.

Griperang’s Bookmarks

I was impressed with this author’s writing and this book.
The author did a good job of working the art into the story line.
You can tell she knows what she is talking about.
I thought the story flowed and kept me wanting to find out what happens next.
This is a good start to a new series and I am looking forward to the next book.
