Point Blank by Peter Vonder Haar

January 3, 2020 by Melina 2 Comments

This is the second Clarke & Clarke mystery from Peter Vonder Haar where we follow the Clarke twins once again, up to their necks in danger.  Of course, Cy and Charlie aren’t alone in the mayhem set against a Houston background, their big brothers attempt to help as they can. Can you really help Cy when he succeeds so often by running into danger head first?  You know what the law of diminishing returns is, right? If you keep doing something enough times you won’t […]

I really liked this book a lot. I used to play spot the CIA agent in my work at the National Archives because you have to protect people’s identities while they still might be alive, so one of the side characters made me smile. I liked the main brother and sister duo of Charlie and […]
