If marrying into the peerage is on your to-do list, you might want to consider what life could be really like! Danny Kemp has weaved a tale of intrigue and drama in "The Desolate Garden" and we are not at all surprised this is going to be a movie as well. We do hope that we'll be on the review list! From family issues to international intrigue involving affairs, politics and people's lives, this book may seem like another lovely story from England but we can assure you it's much more than that. It's written well and you'll be tempted to read it in one sitting. If you liked House of Cards, and we are talking the UK version not what you might have seen on this side of the pond, you'll love this winner. However, at the end we felt like what will happen next? We can only hope for a sequel. And thank you Twitter-you are how we found out about this book! https://twitter.com/danielkemp6

Summer has just begun, and it is time to decide which books to put on your summer reading list. The Desolate Garden, by Danny Kemp, should definitely make the cut. Open this book, and you will be transported overseas to the exciting city of London. But this isn't the same London you may have visited in the past. Kemp immerses the reader in a spy mystery that will have you biting your nails from cover to cover. I could not put it down from the time I started reading it. The characters are full of life, and the plot is thrilling. It is rare that an author can create such vivid images in the mind. Despite the action and suspense, Kemp manages to throw in a great deal of wry humor as well. This book is one that you won't want to miss out on!
