Hotel Cuba: A Novel
by Aaron Hamburger
Hotel Cuba (4/4/2023)
This is a very good book. A quick read and held my interest until the very end. I liked the story and the characters. It opened up an area that I was not aware of before. I would like to read additional books by this author.
Good Husbands: A Novel
by Cate Ray
Good Husbands (4/13/2022)

Cartier's Hope: A Novel
by M. J. Rose
Cartier's Hope (9/24/2019)
M. J. Rose once again, has written an attention keeping historical mystery. Set in Gilded Age New York with the infamous Hope diamond and it's legends and curses forming an intriguing story. There is also mystery and romance with a journalist heroine. Best of all is themore
