Across from Boston Common, nestled into the corner of a cobblestone mall, sits The Bookseller, a bookstore owned by a lovable rare book dealer and his wife, who runs a coffee parlor inside the store. The parlor is the morning gathering place for business people from around the mall where the complimentary coffee is hot and delicious, the croissants are a quarter, and the lively banter is free. George and Elizabeth lead a happy life surrounded by many friends.

Their happiness is about to be shattered by a violent South American drug cartel with a new, high tech process for smuggling cocaine. A brilliant book that you just have to keep reading to the end - set aside the time!!!

The story is well done and draws the reader in. It could be a story of any one of us affected by gangs. It's is both intriguing and heart wrenching. You cheer for the characters and are horrified by the criminals. It is a story happening in every town with often the same unfortunately good people affected. Well done. Intriguingly good novel.

Could not put this one down- At first I didn't like the paranormal stuff and wished i had not started reading it but I am glad I stuck with it. Very intense and dark but spellbinding!

A great tale of immortality ,friendship love and an unquenchable quest for power with a bit of the supernatural thrown in and a supremely evil head of a cartel

Wow!

I don't know where to begin with this book. I started out reading it and thought it was going in one direction and then just when I settled into my stride with it, it changes pace and goes in a different direction!

It has everything you could want from a book and a few things that I wouldn't want from a book but by time I realised this I was too involved with all the characters to even think about stopping!

Original, scary, sweet, romantic, spiritual, it has it all, and what was great is that it was all tied up nicely in the end. I was a bit worried for a time that I would be left with questions, but honestly I had none. I don't want to give anything away, but it all went well for the goodies and the baddies;-)

I was left with that feeling of not wanting to read another book for a while, whilst still basking in the brilliance of this one. Thanks so much netgalley for this one and C. Robert Cales, more please!
