MY BOOK BEGINNING


 "Please, promise me they won't let it burn," the woman said."  
-- Public Trust by J. M. Mitchell.  This is mystery with a National Park story-line.  Of course, if it starts off with a forest fire, it is immediately captivating. 

Thanks go to book publicist Mary Bisbee-Beek for my copy.

  5. Hmm, trust and promise, two things that are often broken. So is the the woods that are burning?

  6. I love our National Parks, so anything set in one of them is for me. That's why I always love Nevada Barr's mysteries. This is going on my list.
