The second book of the Agent Corrie Swanson spin-off. Not to spoil anything, but Pendergast does make an appearance. Corrie & Nora end up teaming up again as they stumble across a legend of lost treasure near WSMC in New Mexico.

I think, after Relic, this was my next favorite Preston and Child. Though she can be annoying at times, I really like the Corrie Swanson character. And I hope we see more of the sheriff in future books.

There's a reason Preston & Child are my go-to when I want a fun mystery. They almost never disappoint, and this was no exception. I really like Nora and Corrie, and look forward to more in this series.

My goal for this year was to become a successful plant lady (after years of buying cute flowers and houseplants each spring and killing them before winter... 🤦‍♀️). I had sort of a restless, anxious day today, so I listened to most of the tagged audiobook (loving it!), puttered around with plants and accomplished nothing productive...
I'm getting to where I have as many plant pictures on my phone as book pictures!

monalyisha This is an accomplishment! Way to go! 💚 3y

LiteraryinPA That is totally exciting! They look like they are thriving! I made a similar resolution this spring. So far I have bought the pots and the soil and watched an online series about succulents… but not bought any plants yet! 🤦🏻‍♀️ 3y

Johanna414 @LiteraryinLawrence ok, but that still might be better than my process - which was go to Home Depot and buy a bunch of unlabeled plants. Then panic when I realized I had no idea what they were or how to care for them.... Librarian research mode took over, and now I just keep buying more lol 3y

Johanna414 @LiteraryinLawrence Plus, didnt I see a post earlier that you are moving? Moving with plants sounds difficult... 3y

RosePressedPages That‘s awesome! Your plants look great! I‘m also trying to become a successful plant lady but we‘ll see😅 3y

nanuska_153 I love plants but I suck a keeping them alive, so I have a huge respect for you and your endeavour, they look great!! I promised myself that I'd be better at it now that we moved to a house with a garden, but so far I only bought pink gardening gloves and watched my partner taking care of the plants 😅 3y

Chelsea.Poole They‘re lovely! 🪴 3y

so-so

This was overall just a meh. I love the Pendergast books and have read them all. This is a series with two characters from those books, Corrie Swanson and Nora Kelly. Although a fun read, its highly forgettable. Not sure if Ill continue these. It felt mailed in and that they authors were not totally invested.

Thank you so much @RedxoHearts for this great #bookcupidswap package. I ❤️ Preston & Child and am excited about this new series in the world of Pendergast. They seem to be going back to their archeological adventure mystery roots. 😁
I may have already eaten the Lindt bar. 😋

RedxoHearts I'm glad you liked it! I don't blame you for the Lindt because I may have bought one for myself too. 😆 I'd never heard of the author or books but they sound interesting. Wnjoy! 4y

RedxoHearts Enjoy! 4y
