    Even with those teasers, I have no idea what that book could be about! And Red Square? Are they in Moscow? But the first page says they are in Washington state. I'm intrigued.

    I've seen The Hive somewhere else and I think it can make a good story!

    The Book Blogger Hop question - I also couldn't think of any character for myself. So I just used one for Elza. Dulcinea from Puss in Boots.

    Hope you will have a good weekend Freda!

    This sounds like a very interesting read and I'm intrigued to see how we get from that relatively calm opening to someone investigating a murder! Thanks for hosting and I hope you have a lovely weekend :)

    This sounds like an interesting read. I really like that opening. It instantly makes me curious about these two women. Hope you enjoy it!

    I couldn't really think of an adult character either. Love your quotes.

    I hope you are enjoying this mystery, Freda. The Friday56 has a bit of foreboding about it.

    I didn't take part in this week's BBHOP question because I couldn't think of anyone either. When I read, I often see bits of myself in the characters (although not always), but never as a whole. I think that's fairly normal though.

    I hope you have a great weekend! Thank you for hosting!

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
