“The Sleeping Pool” is an intelligently written novel by an author who is a born story-teller.
One twin disappears in the Sleeping Pool in Zimbabwe at a time when his presence is sorely needed by the other twin in the US. What evolves is the frantic search for this man amid mystery and murder.
The prose is mesmeric at times and I was able to immerse myself wholly in the story. The characters were well drawn and the descriptions of scenes had the right balance of detail and length.
There was a lot to like about this book. I recommend it for lovers of good quality fiction.
Four stars
I received this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
