Do you read reviews prior to a purchase? See what 1 reviewer has to say about The St. Simons Island Club! "The book is meticulously structured and paced [...] The St. Simons Island Club, as in earlier volumes in the series, blends mystery with an important social issue of the time. It doesn’t take long to realize that there is more going on here than just another big-city murder. Like Donna Leon (Inspector Brunetti) and Cara Black (Detective Aimée LeDuc), Monahan takes us into realities we’d rather not know about but should. Their books serve as social commentaries as well as being first-rate mysteries." - Historical Novel Society. #gjfordbookshop #shopsatseaisland #shopssi #christmas #givebooksforchristmas
