I loved this book!
It has started my long time love affair with Michelle Griep :)
This book captivated my attentions from the very first page, the characters have such great chemistry between them and the secondary characters. I loved the unique story line and the historical aspect of indentured service was so cool :) I absolutely recommend this book.
I volunteered to read this book from Barbour Publishing Group in return for my honest feedback. The thoughts and opinions expressed within are my own.
  
Such a great book. Michelle was diagnosed with a brain tumor...instead of feeling sorry for herself, she and her husband, Ed, embarked on a voyage around the globe for 105 days. Each page in the book is written like a journal entry of their travels and life aboard the ship. There are photos on each page, along with the coordinates for that particular day and a quote. There are several layers to this book/story - (1) the travelogue; (2) Michelle's diagnosis and treatment(s); and (3) the treasure hunt. I have not yet embarked on deciphering the treasure hunt as I've already loaned the book out to someone else to read. While reading the book, I felt like I was there with them in every port of call and through the ship's daily activities, including fighting for the ability to do laundry! I highly recommend this book to everyone.

The Rescuers to the Rescue.
The Plot: Bernard (Bob Newhart) and Miss Bianca (Eva Gabor), two New York City mice, are members of the Rescue Aid Society, an international team that operates beneath the United Nations and comes to the aid of those in need. After receiving word that Penny (Michelle Stacy), a young orphan, has been abducted by Madame Medusa (Geraldine Page), an evil woman seeking a precious diamond, the two set out to bring her back home, with help from other animal friends.

It has adventure, drama, comedy, love, a percious diamond, a evil villian and more.

A classic movie from disney.

Dr. Freida Klein is a psychotherapist and a "consultant" with the London police. She is helping the police solve the murder of Robert Poole, whose body was found in the apartment of a mentally unstable woman, Michelle Doyce. The police are ready to close the case. With Michelle unfit to stand trial, she will spend her time in a mental institution....Case Closed! But Freida saw past all that into something much more. Putting her life on the line and confronting witnesses without the help of the police, are just part of what makes up Dr. Klein. And, you'll never guess who did it. The book had me on the edge of my seat from page one.

Can't wait to read more in this series and really bummed that I didn't read [b:Blue Monday|10940958|Blue Monday (Frieda Klein, #1)|Nicci French|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1327188223s/10940958.jpg|15858219] first, but it has been add to my "To Read" list.

The part about this book that made me give it five stars is that it had me from the beginning and it was hard to figure out who the killer was. Too many people had a motive. Nicci French did a really amazing job of keeping the suspense.
