Light Mystery - DON'T MISS
In Ashes to Ashes: Diamonds to Dust, Pamela Allegretto-Franz presents us an entertaining departure from her, equally well-done but more serious work, Bridge of Sighs and Dreams.
Ashes to Ashes: Diamonds to Dust is a wonderful romp through modern-day Venice. The story is filled with intrigue, masquerading characters, and constant twists that keep the reader constantly wondering who are the good guys and who are the villains.
Carla Romano wants only to go to annual art exhibition and auction where she can display and sell some of her own art as well as some by her lately deceased friend and fellow artist. By the way, she also wants to dump her best friend’s ashes from a rose-colored decanter into the Grand Canal. All simple enough, right? Wrong!
Everything that can conceivably go wrong for Carla, does. That’s all I am willing to reveal. Read it for yourself and laugh and be entertained like I was. I guarantee you’ll love the trip. As I told the author, I could see a whole series of Carla Romano mysteries. But, of course, that’s up to her. In the meantime, just sit back, read, and enjoy the ride.
I rate this book a solid five stars and recommend it to any fan of light-hearted mysteries. My only regret is that I had many interruptions that kept me from reading the whole novel in a couple of sittings. I intend to remedy that at the first opportunity. Don’t miss it!
