Ghosts of Honolulu: A Japanese Spy, A Japanese American Spy Hunter, and the Untold Story of Pearl Harbor by Mark Harmon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I heard about this book when I listened to the podcast NCIS: Parteners and Probies interview with Mark Harmon.
This ebook was available on Hoopla through my local library.
I enjoyed the history told with a central character from a different viewpoint than what I had read before.

The Protocol by J. Robert Kennedy
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This ebook has been in My Digital Library since May 25, 2018, and it was written in 2010.
There is plenty of action. In 2026, I am uncomfortable reading about a president who has a Termination List and makes up reasons for his Special Forces to take out most of an archeology team that finds a Crystal Skull.

I borrowed this sequel to Blackbird on the Hoopla app from my local library.

Blackbird by Anna Carey
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This e-book has been in My Digital Library since April 13, 2018.
It is written in second-person, and I found that use of You draws me into suspended imagination easily. For me it enhanced the suspense. What would I do next? Like a choose-your-own adventure with the writer choosing the direction of the story.
I enjoyed it enough to find the second Blackbird novel on Hoopla from my local library. I hope you might enjoy it too.

A Shot in the Bark by C.A. Newsome
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This cozy mystery has been in My Digital Library since March 16, 2018.
I like the story and the characcters. However, this exceeds a personal limit I have about cozy mysteries: no more tnan 1 murder (there are two) and no more than 1 attempted murder (there are two) before the mystery is solved. My personal limit can rate this cozy mystery no higher than 3 stars.
