Today’s team review is from Karen, she blogs here https://mytrainofthoughtson.wordpress.com

Karen has been reading Fool’s Gold by P.J. Skinner

This book focuses on geologist Sam; in need of a job she accepts an offer that takes her to the rainforests of Sierramar, to an adventure that gets her in some unanticipated situations.

With “Fool’s Gold”, PJ Skinner has created a slowly yet steadily developing adventure around Sam Harris. The story comprises a variety of characters with sufficient depth, drama, surprising turns which are solved as the story continues, and interesting geological/archaeological passages. I had a good time reading “Fool’s Gold” – it is the beginning of a promising series. I was drawn into the story having finished the first chapter, already getting closer to Sam.

This is for you if you like female protagonists, characters with an agenda, and slower-paced (yet not too slow) adventures.

A promising first book in a new series.

Recommended.

When she uncovers a clue to a treasure buried deep within the jungle, she is sent on an expedition to find it, but one of her colleagues is plotting to seize the hoard and will kill to get his hands on it.

Will Sam find the treasure or will her first adventure be her last?

If you like gutsy heroines, exotic locations, and complex characters, then you’ll love PJ Skinner’s thrilling novel.

Today’s team review is from Jenny

Jenny has been reading Fool’s Gold by P.J. Skinner

This is quite an exciting book. It is a little like reading the feminine version of Indiana Jones, the early years! Sam, a newly qualified geologist stumbles by chance into her first job after meeting two men in a bar. They know only too well that a keen junior like Sam would be a walkover, and cheap. But, is she as dumb as they seem to think?

Sam jumps at such a great opportunity to work as a geologist in the jungle, even more exciting is the fact that they will be searching for the lost treasure of the Inca’s. Imagine that! What a great start to her career.

However not everything goes according to plan. There is Wilson and Alfredo along with a wonderful mix of characters in this story. Some menacing, some kind and new friendships to be made too. But who should Sam trust….can she trust anyone at all?

Will they find the treasure, is it all a myth. Only one way to find out. Read the story, it will have you gripped till the end.
