Dangerous Current: A Minnie Chance Mystery
How many lies does it take to change the truth?
There’s a body on the beach just yards from her back door. Should Minnie be afraid FOR her roommate? Or should she be afraid OF her?
When Minnie shares her Airbnb with a stranger, her Savannah vacation morphs into a covert investigation. Turns out this young woman she’s helping has been lying to her since their first hello. Minnie is driven to uncover her roommate’s secrets, but her efforts dead end until she stumbles over the woman’s real name. By then, danger has already found them—or has it been sleeping in the upstairs guest room all along?

About the author
Cynthia Rogan
10 books31 followersThere were five kids in my family and lots of noise. I learned early on that if I woke up in the middle of the night, I’d better take advantage of the silence. I’d write under the hall light until my eyes were heavy with sleep. Back then, I had a lot to say about how I wanted things to be. Like many writers, I wrote what I couldn’t bring myself to say aloud.
Once I discovered eavesdropping, I was amazed. I realized characters are everywhere. I’m one, you’re one, the jerk you just broke up with, the girl next door with Down’s syndrome, that boy in sixth grade who blushed every time his name was called, the man behind the counter at the pharmacy. And we all have our stories and our problems and our own way of looking at the world. And we all have the ability to touch someone else. We are never really alone.
As a fiction writer, I get to fabricate everybody’s history, try to see from different points of view. But I always do my best to understand who each character is and what made them the way they are. I believe that’s why people talk about my characters after they’ve finished reading the story.
I write novels, plays, poems, essays, short stories, do a bit of acting, and am a self-proclaimed doodle-ist.

What a captivating character Miss Minnie is. A little naive at times I think, but I guess that is to be expected from a former nun. This is the first of the series that I have read but I fell right into it and did not feel like I had to have read the previous books (they do sound interesting though). The action starts immediately on a plane to Savannah and does not let up. What a ride. Interesting characters that you are drawn to one way or another. For a former nun, Minnie leads quite an exciting life. Definitely the perfect summer read.
I received an ARC of this book and am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased opinion of the tale.
