Between Heaven and Here
Between Heaven and Here | Susan Straight
1 post | 1 to read
In August in Rio Seco, California, the ground is too hard to bury a body. But Glorette Picard is dead, and across the canal, out in the orange groves, theyll gather shovels and pickaxes and soak the dirt until they can lay her coffin down. First, someone needs to find her son Victor, who memorizes SAT words to avoid the guys selling rock, and someone needs to tell her uncle Enrique, who will be the one to hunt down her killer, and someone needs to brush out her perfect crown of hair and paint her cracked toenails. As the residents of this dry-creek town prepare to bury their own, it becomes clear that Glorettes life and death are deeply entangled with the dark history of the city and the untouchable beauty that, finally, killed her.

Finished The Road to Roswell, which was exactly what I expected and hoped. 👍🏻
Instead of In a Dark, Dark Wood, I read The Favor, which was ok. Not bad but I‘m not rushing to recommend it.
Now You See Us was really good! Posted my review earlier.
Double Life started strong but got slurped back by the library before I finished 😩
Between Heaven and Here is starting slow but could be good. Very atmospheric and dark so far.

Andrew65 Brilliant, thanks for playing along 👏👏👏🙌🍾🥂🥳 10mo
