Can’t believe it’s July already! This year has really kicked into warp-speed. We ended June by celebrating our oldest grandson turning sixteen (how did THAT happen?), Father’s Day, and our youngest grandson’s achievements in his college culinary classes. Since I picked him up every day from them, I got to sample what he’d made that day. It was all great, but my personal favorite is his vanilla creme brulee. He treated the family to the delectable dessert when he made it that following weekend. YUM! Then we started off July by celebrating Independence Day with the kids & grands and did fireworks after dinner.
Here’s to staying cool the rest of the summer. Time to stretch out poolside with a good book.
5 Star Amazon Review:
It's not every day I read a book that seems to make time stand still, but Weaver's Needle did exactly that. I read for what seemed like minutes only to discover that an hour had slipped by.
The story wove legend with action and suspense as Nickolai and Landry sought the missing map. Though the introductory legend telling was a little dry, the rest of the book more than made up for it. The action was paced well, the mystery made sense and was unraveled at just the right pace.
I enjoyed the characters, the writing, the resolution. This was a great book.
5 Star Amazon Review:
Landry is a recovery specialist, as is Nickolai, they both meet at a client's home. A wealthy widow wants them to retrieve a map that was stolen from her late husband. Of the Dutchman's Lost Gold Mine, the document stolen before he could get to the bank, and deposit it. These 2 need the money, but why pit them against one another. Who gets it first, gets the money..the cop in Nickolai, keeps saying it's evidence in the murder of her husband. Cashier check for a million to buy the map, was it now on the black market. Landry asking why did she take it, was it just the money or the challenge. Nickolia calls his friend on the force, what's their take on the document, they have it as an "alleged document." No map, no briefcase, even with all the security cameras. There was another bidder, and what about Stan, who has been with the company a long time, yet, wanting Mr. Winslet to slow down. The intrigue has just begun, the story line was good, characters well defined. Another good mystery by Robin for all to enjoy, and looking forward to her next book.
The desert keeps its secrets… but not for long.

Two recovery specialists. One murder. A hunt for the Dutchman's Lost Gold Mine becomes a race of survival.
Former Army MP Landry Parker fell into the recovery specialist role quite by accident—to help her ailing father. Now that she’s on her own, she is determined to prove herself and honor her family legacy.
After being shot in the line of duty, former police officer Nickolai Baptiste became a recovery specialist, and he’s good at his job—maybe even the best.
A potential client pits Landry and Nickolai against one another to find the Dutchman’s Lost Gold Mine map that was stolen from her murdered husband, and the potential payday is too enticing to pass up. The trail takes them from New Orleans to Weaver’s Needle in Arizona where legend claims the mine is hidden. Landry and Nickolai are no strangers to adventure, but the unlikely partners quickly discover there’s someone after the treasure and there are those who want to ensure the lost mine in Arizona’s Superstition Mountain stays lost forever.
Can Landry and Nickolai work together despite their distrust of each other to save the legend before more innocent lives are lost? Will they find the real treasure isn’t the gold, but something more valuable. . .true love and understanding?

Cybersecurity specialist Briella Hopper has built her life on logic and control—until a routine job drops her into a murder scene and her brother is arrested for the crime. As her company is sabotaged and the truth is twisted around her, Briella turns to attorney Tobias Collins, a man fighting shadows of his own. Together, they’re pulled into a conspiracy that strikes at their deepest wounds and threatens everything they’ve tried to protect.
