"The author, Cathy Corn, was adept at introducing the heroine of the story in such a human way that this reader became immediately sympathetic and interested in her life. The story moved quickly, was believable, imaginable and hard to put down. The writing was extremely competent and there were no distracting elements to impede the reader in following the building suspense to its rapid resolution. I will read more from this author and would recommend this author to other women who enjoy romantic suspense and a little Hawaiian vacation travel."

The story is set in Pittsburgh but moves to Kauai where pieces of the puzzle begin to come together. All is not as it appears on the surface and I didn't guess the ending till the final pages. This book is intriguing and hard to put down!"

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The cultural history of the Cold War has been characterized as an explosion of fear and paranoia, based on very little actual intelligence. Both the US and Soviet administrations have since remarked how far off the mark their predictions of the other's strengths and aims were. Yet so much of the cultural output of the period – in television, film, and literature – was concerned with the end of the world. Here, Nicholas Barnett looks at art and design, opinion polls, the Mass Observation movement, popular fiction and newspapers to show how exactly British people felt about the Soviet Union and the Cold War. In uncovering new primary source material, Barnett shows exactly how this seeped in to the art, literature, music and design of the period.
