The nitty-gritty: Henry’s latest is a post apocalyptic fairy tale with teeth, a thrilling, brutal and emotional tale of survival with surprises around every corner and a heroine who is determined to survive, no matter what.

The nitty-gritty: Thrilling and fast-paced, emotional and heartwarming, Deception Cove has everything I look for in a good story, and more. Why don’t I read more mystery/thrillers? I ask myself that question every time I read a good one, and Deception Cove was the perfect thriller to remind me what I’m missing. I loved the […]
