I love to see the present character unravel a mystery that has been long buried and then go back into the past to live the actual events. This book sounds like an excellent read, and the drink yummy! As always, these pairings make my Fridays.Kerry Hammondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01005397789316426975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087598545110289124.post-30736076499253641602014-04-11T08:14:10.649-07:002014-04-11T08:14:10.649-07:00Thanks Emma.

Though I have to say personally I'm a purist,and I LOVE la Chartreuse, I even bought some there last time I was in France [it is still made by the monks - set in a stunning landscape], so I think I would not mix it with anything, lol. Glad you loved the book and shared it with such passion. EmmaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
