**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
When Jim and Laura Pepperman find a musty German Olympic jacket and an old journal in their attic, they stumble onto a gripping pre-World War II story of a cousin Jim knows nothing about.

After a career-ending injury forces Hans Pepperman to lose his spot on the 1936 Olympic boxing team, he trades his athletic aspirations for a degree in mechanical engineering and secures his dream job working for the famous Willy Messerschmitt. Tasked to solve the stalling issues of the BF109 fighter plane engine, Hans finds himself smack in the middle of the Abwher Intelligence Service’s radar. Pro-Germany but anti-Nazi, he reluctantly agrees to help flush out the spy leaking secret information on the BF109 engine to foreign agencies . . . and finds himself a suspect of espionage and murder. Unsure who to trust, he must unravel the tangle of lies he’s caught in before he falls prey to the Nazi agenda slowly and stealthily taking over the country he loves.

Murder at the Book Festival
Annie Darling has been talked into being the author liaison to the medallion winners at this year’s Dixie Book Festival held on nearby Hilton Head. While the authors have been a bit demanding before things start, it’s nothing like their reaction when a publisher announces plans to publish a novel fictionalizing the scandals in their past. However, when that publisher dies at his own party that evening, all the evidence seems to point to Annie. Can she and her husband, Max, prove her innocence?

This is another fun mystery in the series. I kept landing on a different suspect until Annie figures things out for us, at which point everything made perfect sense. The characters in this book can be a little thin, but in this case there was one that was an over the top conservative cliché and wasn’t at all fun. On the other hand, the subplot involving three of the supporting characters was hysterical and kept me laughing. I’ve also started catching a few more of the references to other books and authors, which is fun. Overall, this is another good entry that will keep fans entertained.
