If Lea wondered why I was buying the first book in Jenn's new Hat Shop series, she kept it to herself. " I'm supposed to tell everyone that the hats are not for sale," she told me. Lea was behind the desk and saw me grab a copy of Cloche and Dagger off the table. When we walked in the bookstore, a table loaded with Jenn's books and a selection of hats was front and center. I'd wager more than a few of you cozy readers have heard the same sort of thing from your husbands and boyfriends, right? Each time he'd asked, I just smiled and told him, " It doesn't matter if you've read her books or even if you never intend to read them, you're going to like her!" After all, he hadn't heard of her (he'd forgotten the times I talked about her after the Coz圜ons), and he really wasn't interested in reading cozies.
To be honest, Denis had asked me several times why we were going to see her. When Bel'lar is brought out to be sacrificed, the truth of Ry Sing's vision begins to reveal itself.Late Thursday afternoon on August 8, my non-cozy reading husband and I hopped in the Jeep and headed over to The Poisoned Pen to see Jenn McKinlay. Searching for anyone to take back to the blue-white planet, Bel'lar is captured and taken to the Compound of the Congress where he learns he will be sacrificed at the Last Rites of Ester. The Synthetics have taken over the planet and Organs don't exist anymore. They return home but 350 years have passed. Deborah Crombie, New York Times bestselling author Brimming with McKinlay’s trademark wit and snappy one-liners, Anglophiles will love this thoroughly entertaining new murder mystery series. No one is too concerned about the unpredictable Viv until one of her posh clients is found dead wearing the cloche hat Viv made for her and nothing else. Second, Viv who has some whims of her own seems to be missing. But could this vision be true? Bel'lar and his crew find the blue-white planet, a wonderful, habitable place. Praise for Cloche and Dagger : A delicious romp through my favorite part of London with a delightful new heroine. First, she is met at the airport not by Viv, but by her handsome business manager, Harrison Wentworth. He had seen no other way to liberate them than to destroy the planet in a great cataclysm. Only then he was the Great One, the sacred head of their religion. She tells him that eons ago, Bel'lar was faced with the burden of saving his people from their own greed. But the visions of his beautiful companion Ry Sing, a mystic and seer shake Bel'lar. As one of the few remaining but persecuted Organs, Bel'lar and his small crew are sent to find the semi-mythical blue-white planet and discover if it is really a place for humanity to begin again. Overconsumption is destroying his home planet, and synthetic foods are turning his people into degenerated mutants.
Summary: Many thousands of years ago on a planet in the Belt of Orion, Captain Bel'lar accepts a monumental task.
