Time Life Book Digest 1990

I finished another book last night. This is another volume of best sellers at the time by Time Life rather than Reader's Digest this time. Loved all these stories and maybe you will too.

• The Longest Tunnel by Alan Burgess- Many of you may know of this story through the movie "the Great Escape" but it is worth checking out this book too. 
• Bitter Sweet by LaVyrle Spencer- A story of parting after high school and coming back together later in life. Of course there is more to it than that but wouldn't want to spoil it for you.
• The Gold Coast by Nelson DeMille- A fascinating look into east coast wealth, lawyers and the mafia.
• The Burden of Proof by Scott Turow- Chasing family secrets after the death of his wife in a search to understand drives this great story.

Back with more again soon. Take care and stay cozy!

Plum Island by Nelson Demille

This book made a great airport, airplane, beach read during our recent trip to California and Hawaii. For me it was the kind of book that I really enjoy, great characters, interesting mystery and the story moves along at a great pace. Just right for entertainment of the old fashioned printed kind.

The author's website has the following description.

Wounded in the line of duty, NYPD homicide cop John Corey is convalescing in rural eastern Long Island when an attractive young couple he knows is found shot to death on the family patio. The victims were biologists at Plum Island, a research site rumored to be an incubator for germ warfare. Suddenly, a local double murder takes on shattering global implications - and thrusts Corey and two extraordinary women into a dangerous search for the secret of PLUM ISLAND…

There you have it. Another thing I did on my winter vacation.

Finished The Lion's Game

I finished The Lion's Game last night. This was one of the books I picked up at the library book sale last week.

I have not read anything by Nelson DeMille before The Lion's Game. It was a good thriller. I don't want to give anything away here though. I understand there is a sequel to this book and I am going to look for it next time I go to the library.

I have started reading The Keepers of the House by Shirley Ann Grau which was another book sale find. This book won a Pulitzer Prize in 1965 and I am looking forward to the story.
