Second in the Shinobi Mystery Series, by Susan Spann. I met Susan at RMFW’s Colorado Gold conference a few years ago before she was published. We were “neighbors” in the hotel and she was speaking at a session about copyright law. When I saw her first book in print, I snapped it up right away and read it on vacation last year. This year, I got a signed copy of her newest release. I’m only a couple of chapters in, but she’s set up a good conflict and I love the setting as always.
