1934 Plot

Edward Ware Thrillers #3

by Linda Cargill

Dora gazed up at him sadly. This was the man she waited nineteen years to marry, for whom she forsook her first husband, for whom she once sailed to Europe after the Great War to go to the Paris Peace Conference, for whom she would still do anything or go anywhere. Just brushing against his arm as she was doing now made her feel an inseparable closeness. It reminded her of what last night in bed could have been like if it wasn’t for the blood on his hand. But the problem was there was always blood on his hand or a ghoul behind a bush when it came to Colonel Sir Edward Ware.

1934 Plot is Book 2 of the Edward Ware Thriller Series.

135 pages, Kindle Edition

Reviews

[Raegan · Rating 2 out of 5]

-Disclaimer: I won this book for free through goodreads giveaways in exchange for an honest review.-

I liked this book pretty well. I would have gave it more stars but this is not something that I would normally read. I loved the first 24 pages- it had lot's of detail and gave me goosebumps while reading it. I haven't read the first one (Key to Lawrence.)

This book starts out on a ship and a man is after Dora(the main character) or more precisely the maps he thinks she has. People are willing to kill to get these maps and I'm guessing one person isn't going to stand in their way. This book was really funny- (telling stories of the persons life.) And I absolutely loved the cover! (2.5 stars)

[Malcolm Blair-Robinson · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a pacy thriller written in the style of the period in which it is set, creating an authentic atmosphere of the political intrigue of the nineteen thirties, which underpinned spying and espionage right across Europe. The heroine, Dora and her fiance, now husband, Sir Edward Ware, battle against blood curdling spooks determined to wrest the vital Lawrence Maps, which hold the key to military domination of the Middle East. In the background Churchill and Lawrence of Arabia are drivers of the need to protect these documents and add a useful historical backcloth. The new bride finds her love and loyalty tested by her husband's unexpected connections with one of the apparent villains. Their grit and determination carries them through all the trials, yet the ending leaves the door tantalizingly open to another adventure to come.
At a time when so much fiction follows a predictable pattern in a polished style lacking individuality like processed food, the Cargills offer something refreshingly different, a ripping yarn, well worth an entertaining read.
