Welcome to Litsy!

All this rain,& no work gives me the time to review so many books! Sorry for the onslaught!.
A teenager from a wealthy family summering on a nearby lake is missing.The Martini Club, ex-CIA agents,decide to investigate when a close farmer friend & neighbor of Maggie‘s is picked up for questioning.Meanwhile,an old corpse is discovered in the lake.Are these mysteries related? While investigating,the MC uncover buried secrets & all starts to unravel.

Enjoyed this one. I liked the Maine setting and the Martini Club members, and the mystery had enough twists & turns to keep me guessing. Bonus Lee Child/ Tess Gerritsen short story in the back of the book, for Reacher fans.

I'm about 1/3 done with this, and really enjoying it so far. I like the Maine in summer setting; reminds me of some great vacations in the past. Enjoying the characters in the Martini Club!

My Friday night delight. #MidSummerSolace. #Naturalitsy While cooking a dinner of beef charred pepper tacos,I listened to tagged book.Add chips & salsa, Mexican beer-yum! After dinner my couch calls me- reading pictured book with my cats. I also may watch the Yankee game at some point.⚾️

The Martini Club is once again helping the police chief of their tiny Maine town solve a crime, a crime that reaches back decades, and reveals answers to other mysteries. But this case also has them questioning whether their age is starting to hinder their abilities. Physical abilities, yes. Mental abilities? Kidnapping, drowning, murder, intrigue, family, betrayal. You will fly through this book. I love the characters in this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I ended up quite liking this even though we have a bit less of our main characters than in The Spy Coast. The Summer Guests is a smaller tale in terms of scope , but it‘s well-told and keeps you wondering if you‘re right about the solution. #audiowalk

So far I‘m enjoying this book, but I liked The Spy Coast better. We‘ll see how it ends up. I‘ve got about 3 hours left. #audiowalk

This follow-up to The Spy Coast is my new #audiowalk book. I‘m enjoying it so far.

Spring is coming, and with it, a flurry of exciting book releases! I had the pleasure of participating in The Back Room: Cocktails and Conversations with Your Favorite Authors, hosted by the talented authors Hank Phillippi Ryan and Karen Dionne. This unique event brought together authors with new books hitting the shelves this month!
