 Camp Conviction byNatalie Buske Thomas Independent Spirit Publishing 190 pages, June 2000 ISBN 096669192X Reviewed by Nancy Mehl Serena Wilcox runs a detective agency with her assistant Karyn, who is financially secure and doesn’t really need to work - she just wants to do something interesting with her life. Serena certainly supplies this and more, when she asks her to go undercover at a military style church camp. A complaint from a former client causes concern. Something strange seems to be going on at the camp. Something ominous that almost turns deadly. Now Serena must jump into the case with both feet after Karyn, her fiancée and his eight-year-old nephew are almost killed by the secretive members of a group called The Chosen. While Wilcox and company are hard at work, trying to uncover the truth about the strange family camp, a widow named Jill spends her time on an Internet message board called "Women Over 30." When interest is generated from a couple of posters about some land Jill wants to sell, she has no idea that her seemingly innocuous Internet involvement will drop her right into Serena’s lap and put all of them directly in harm’s way. Camp Conviction is a delightful and mysterious romp told in a smooth and enjoyable style, with charming and interesting characters. It will keep you turning the pages and laughing out loud. I am hooked and will now have to go back and read the first in the Serena Wilcox series, Virtual Memories, while patiently awaiting the next installment. |
