A must read

 It's been a while since I have posted a book review. Life has been incredibly busy but I have been listening to many great stories. 


I just finished a book from one of my favorite artists. Author W Upfields, The House of Cain. Sadly this book does not feature one of my favorite characters. That being D.I Napoleon Bonaparte. 


However this book is full of intriguing characters both villain and heroes alike. This book also has all the characteristics of great literature. I felt emotionally involved and there were parts that had me on the edge of my seat. 


Full of intrigue, suspense, in the face of the next to impossible. With writing eloquent and well thought out. 


I fully recommend this great book. I hope you enjoy.
