"Trinidad & Tobago (Island Hopping Series)" by Janice Ross is the second in the series and a wonderfully gripping and emotional novel about a woman's quest to uncover her origins.Sakkara Riley has little to go on, only a few memorabilia from her parents and some locals who can help her. The discovery leads way back into the past, the 1930s and 1940s and reveals a more complex story than Sakkara had anticipated.Well plotted, written with authentic dialogue and local 'accent' this is a very engaging and compelling story.I found the first book in the series by chance on twitter and have since waited for the second book to be released. Ross is an excellent story teller and keeps you involved into her characters and curious as to what else she has up her sleeve.Being interested in family histories and history myself I found the book had much more in store than I had expected myself, as some links to France and WW2 add extra flavour to this Carribean adventure series.Excellent.
