A Novel
by Erika Robuck

Anyone who enjoys an engrossing cat and mouse thriller will enjoy Ms. Robuck’s newest book. It takes place in the 1920s.
On the one side, readers meet Marie. As is sometimes the case, she feels that she can do a job better than her husband, even as she has the responsibility of motherhood. There is lots of money to be made rumrunning and Marie wants in.
Of course, the government has concerns about the illegal activity. One of their weapons is Elizabeth. Like Marie, Elizabeth has domestic responsibilities. Nonetheless, she is driven to work with the Coast Guard. She has a great skillset including cryptanalysis.
Who will trick whom? Who will ‘win?’ Will justice be done? Will Marie escape detection? Read this entertaining novel, based on truth, to find out. It offers a fun escape to those who enjoy suspenseful historical fiction.
