I was hesitant to review a book in this genre, Mystery/thriller. I'm more of a romance girl. But I'd promised to do the review so I waded in.WOW! Was I surprised!I was stunned by the fact that I was hooked from the very beginning. I had trouble setting it down. I found myself daydreaming about where the story would go next while I was at work. Cliff Roberts writes smart, funny, witty banter so life like you'd swear he listened in when you and your friend got together. His characters have real depth. Talking about characters. His leading man is old, handicapped, a struggling writer who just can't keep his nose out of other people's business. His nosiness leads him into one predicament after another, as Roberts twists the story into a huge knot before magically snapping it into line for a surprise ending.Everyone needs to read, Nevwas's Gold. If I knew mystery/thrillers could be this much fun, I'd read one before now. Now, I'm going to read everything, Roberts writes. I give this book, Five stars.
