PamG (lynguy1) | 2574 comments I finished my first book of 2021 and it was excellent. The Kaiser's Web The Kaiser's Web (Cotton Malone, #16) by Steve Berry by Steve Berry. This is the sixteenth book in the Cotton Malone series. It's a political thriller and suspense novel that takes place in multiple countries. Berry once again did an excellent job of combining fact and fiction into an entertaining and fast-paced novel.

PamG (lynguy1) | 2574 comments I finished The Keepers The Keepers (Mace Reid K-9 Mystery, #2) by Jeffrey B. Burton by Jeffrey B. Burton. This is the second book in the Mace Reid K-9 Mystery series. Burton managed to seamlessly combine an amateur sleuth mystery with a police procedural that also highlights relationships between dogs and people.

PamG (lynguy1) | 2574 comments The Incredible Winston Browne The Incredible Winston Browne by Sean Dietrich by Sean Dietrich is the best book that I have read so far in 2021. I would not have thought that a book set in the small fictional Florida town of Moab during the 1950’s would end up being a five star read. But this historical fiction with some suspense and action was excellent.
