The Long Way Home by Andrew Klavan

Charlie West went to bed one night an ordinary high school student. He woke up a hunted man. Terrorists are trying to kill him. The police want to arrest him for the stabbing death of his best friend. He doesn’t know whose side he’s one or who he can trust. With his pursuers closing in on every side, Charlie makes his way back to his hometown to find some answers. There, holed up in an abandoned mansion, he’s joined by his friends in a desperate attempt to discover the truth about a murder he can’t remember-and the love he can never forget.

The Auschwitz Violin by Maria Angels Anglada

In the winter of 1991 a musician is captivated by a marvelously pitched violin, when he asks how she obtained it the woman reveals the remarkable story behind it’s origin…

The violin is the creation of a luthier named Daniel who was imprisoned at Auschwitz. The luthier and his violin are the subject of a cruel wager that could be the difference between life and death.

The Baker Street Phantom by Fabrice Bourland

It’s the spring of 1932 and Londoners are being terrorised by a series of brutal murders in the English Capital just as the private detective agency of Messrs. Singleton and Trelawney opens its doors in Bloomsbury.

There first client is an extremely worried Lady Arthur Conan Doyle who tells them of mysterious goings on at 221 Baker Street and warns them that mankind is in terrible danger.

The ensuing investigation takes the unlikely heroes into a world of seances and spirits where they are forced to rethink the boundaries between reality and fantasy. The question is of course, can they solve these bloody crimes…?

Golden Rainbows by Christine Brannen Reilly

When you’re caught up in the trials and tribulations of every day life where everything seems like a constant battle it takes someone like Mikey Reilly to make you realise that life is something you should be thankful for.

Diagnosed with cancer at just eight months old Mikey became a constant visitor to the Children’s Hospital where over the years doctors and nurses battled against the disease.

But during that time he never complained about the hand that life had dealt him, instead he was a beautiful, courageous and outgoing little boy who stole the hearts of everyone he ever met.

Through the stories that Christine has so gracefully shared with the world I felt like I came to know Mikey and loved reading about his Valentine’s Day “date” with one of the support team, and his beautiful friendship with Summer Sanders. As a fellow lover of Disney World the recollection of him dancing with the princesses in the parade will stay with me and I’ll think of Mikey next time I’m standing on Main Street USA.

A Hemorrhaging of Souls by Nicola Furlong

I was drawn into this book from the very first page, and Nicola does a wonderful job of weaving a tale with so many twists and turns, that I didn’t know whodunnit until the last page. I couldn’t even begin to tell you what happened in this book as it is so wonderfully complex, yet simple to follow along as you read it.

The characters are quirky and believable, and it’s always good to throw in a little romantic tension in a “will they won’t they” fashion!

If you have a few hours to spare and you want to escape from the world then download this book to your Kindle and get reading
