Mark of the Lion

Tired of the same old mysteries, check out Suzanne Arruda's new Jade Del Cameron series. A historical mystery set in the 1920's in colonial Africa. The story begins in France during WWI.
Jade, an American ambulance driver, befriends David Worthy. As he dies, he requests that she locate his helf-brother. He implies also that his father met a strange death in Africa.
The search for the brother takes Jade to Nairobi. Here, we meet some interesting characters able to provide more details to the mystery surrounding David's father and brother.
Thanks to Arruda's ability to paint a picture with her vivid descriptions, I'm even more interested in going on a safari some day. She has been able to spin mystery, adventure, romance, and history into one enjoyable read. I look forward to her next Jade Del Cameron book.
