Blog Tour & Review: Thief’s Mark by Carla Neggers

Posted by Jennifer in 4 Stars, Blog Tour, Mystery, Review / 1 Comment

As a young boy, Oliver York witnessed the murder of his wealthy parents in their London apartment. The killers kidnapped him and held him in an isolated Scottish ruin, but he escaped, thwarting their plans for ransom. Now, after thirty years on the run, one of the two men Oliver identified as his tormentors may have surfaced.

Emma Sharpe and Colin Donovan are enjoying the final day of their Irish honeymoon when a break-in at the home of Emma’s grandfather, private art detective Wendell Sharpe, points to Oliver. The Sharpes have a complicated relationship with the likable, reclusive Englishman, an expert in Celtic mythology and international art thief who taunted Wendell for years. Emma and Colin postpone meetings in London with their elite FBI team and head straight to Oliver. But when they arrive at York’s country home, a man is dead and Oliver has vanished.

As the danger mounts, new questions arise about Oliver’s account of his boyhood trauma. Do Emma and Colin dare trust him? With the trail leading beyond Oliver’s small village to Ireland, Scotland and their own turf in the United States, the stakes are high, and Emma and Colin must unravel the decades-old tangle of secrets and lies before a killer strikes again.

Review of Thief’s Mark

Review (4 Stars):  This is the first book that I’ve read from the Sharpe and Donovan series and I can happily say that I’m an instant fan.  These two characters are very charming and intelligent and I love the way that they work so well together. This mystery was well-written and fast-paced which made it an absolute delight to read. I’m looking forward to reading the books in the beginning of the series so I can learn the back story of these characters so I will be ready when Ms. Neggers puts out her next mystery.
