Finished mystery novel Reykjavík: A Crime Story by Ragnar Jónasson

Review here

Completed The Alice Network by Kate Quinn ||

The Alice Network was real. Louise de Bettignies, (code name: Alice) it’s leader and her fate during World War I were too. As is the martyred French village Oradour-sur Glane still stands today.

The author uses this true life war heroine’s story to spin a dual timeline narrative. Two women. One haunted and searching for someone during time as a spy in WWI France. The other searching for her missing cousin post WWII. Both find strength, and search for absolution.

Tiziana, if you liked the book Blood Lance and its series you will like the Cup of Christ Mystery/Thriller Series. It is a dual narrative that takes place in the first and twelfth centuries, The two protagonists are asked to find and keep records of the most holy relics on earth.
