Looking for a few good ARC readers

Who's a good ARC reader, you ask? Anyone who reads the book and leaves an honest review!

Do you like cozy mysteries? Are you interested in Japan? If you answered yes to both of those questions, please message me for a digital copy of The Cardinal & the Crane.

This one is special to me because it draws on many personal memories and experiences. It's available for preorder and is also on NetGalley so I hope you'll give it a read.

Here's the blurb:

Samantha Olivares, spunky rancher and inadvertent murder magnet, made a promise to her cousin Jack, and she always keeps her promises.

Chief Medical Examiner, Jack Olivares has worked up the courage to meet his mother’s family in Japan and needs Sam by his side. Used to leading the show, he suddenly finds himself on the outside looking in when a family member is arrested for murder.

As the cousins are immersed in what feels like an alternate world, their perceptions about life and family are changed forever.

In this traditional whodunit, author Alice Kanaka offers a unique perspective on life in Japan as she experienced it. Commonplace Japanese family life and a first-time visitor’s point of view, combined with a dash of murder, provide depth and understanding of familial love across cultural borders.
