It is always great fun to get to know authors, whether they live near or far. But there is great pleasure in finding authors that write about our own neighborhood that makes that pleasure even bigger.
David and Diane Munson have been friends of mine for several years now. They stopped into the Baker Book House I was working at and introduced themselves and told me about their books. At the time they were being published by a little publishing house in the area and they had to do their own promotion. Which by the way, they do very well. With a local link, they became favorites to many in the area and each new one is met with excitement. Stolen Legacy is their 8th book.
Eva Montanna is back and drawn into a mystery that involves her family. She finds out her Grandpa Marty worked with the Dutch Resistance to hide Jewish families from the Gestapo. Now an enemy has returned vowing revenge on his family. Will Eva be able to find the answers to the conflict and save her family?
Taken from their experiences and their own family history, the Munson write books the are often easily confused with the headlines you hear and see every day. The books have interesting characters in them and they will give you a good glimpse into what it was like being raised in Michigan, but also what it is like working for the goverment.
The Munson are great ones to invite to a bookclub or signing as they have many wonderful stories to tell that haven't made it into one of their books yet. They travel all over the country and love to connect with fans.
Happy Reading
