    Land Ho -- What a difference 2-years makes – the boat set adrift is finally back on land again. Adrien has moved-on -- but out of site, doesn’t always mean out of mind…AND for both Adrien and Jake moving on hasn’t been so easy. I found myself laughing out loud throughout the book. Lisa was in rare form but true to who she is – gotta love her. Prepare yourself for a roller-coaster ride through an elaborate web of deceit. Someone has spun a web masterfully designed to ensnare and manipulate all players. “What a tangled web we weave, when first we practice to deceive.” -- and commit murder!
