Stonebridge Conspiracy booker David lives in Florida with his wife Michele site_link site_link This is by far one of the best historical fiction books I have read this year From the beginning of the prologue Moore establishes a sense of place and time with small details and a very direct almost spare writing style The story takes us from the small town of Stonebridge New York to the horrors of the battlefields of World War I France and back complete with a detour through an opium den in New York s Chinatown This journey is filled with adventure danger ambition and conspiracy And within that journey is also a story of faith loyalty love and possibilities. Stonebridge Conspiracy booklet In the first chapters of the book I felt a bit wary of the writing and the storyline My first concern was unfounded as what I mistook as a negative depiction of females was the author successfully portraying two women s shallow and egotistical characters My second concern and what had me putting the book down several times was a sense of impending harm to the main character Jake McCleary Jake was an instantly likeable character and I just didn t want anything to happen to him. Stonebridge Conspiracy book Stonebridge Conspiracy is one of those books that I find difficult to review without telling the whole of the plot As the first self published book that I have read as far as I am aware it was a wonderful surprise to find a fully formed story with no need of an editor or proofreader s hand. Stonebridge Conspiracy booker Though I did set this book down several times the descriptive depiction of the horrors of the front lines had me setting it aside for a short time I kept coming back to it and I am glad I did This is definitely going onto my re read shelf alongside Laurie Loewenstein s Unmentionables another fantastic World War I era historical fiction novel and the one that peaked my interest in reading about the era.
