Patriote Peril Darmon Mysteries Thomas Thorpe 9781612960661 Books

Another great book by Thomas Thorpe. He really knows how to write an Adventure and Thriller that is entertaining from start to finish. Even though this is book 3 in the series, you could still read this as a stand- alone story and still really enjoy it. Elizabeth recovers quite well from her initial shock of finding blood in the carriage returning from the Grand Falls, instead of her family. She doesn’t take long to snap into action and start investigating what has happened to them. Along the way Elisabeth has to contend with her brother in law getting shot, and then Indians and wolves attacking her. One of the things I like about this Author’s books, is the some of the history he puts into his stories. It gives you a bit of insight on what it would be like back in the 1800’s. This one was hard to put down, and it is certainly worth a read.

Patriote Peril Darmon Mysteries Thomas Thorpe 9781612960661 Books Reviews


Patriote Peril is the story of Elizabeth Darmon and how she struggles to reunite her family after they have been kidnapped and trust in the middle of a revolution in Canada in the early part of the 19th century.

Elizabeth, her husband, sisters and brothers-in-law are in Canada. During this time her family is kidnapped and she endeavours to find the culprits and bring her family back to safety. This book is well written and has a lot of action. Elizabeth is quite the daring woman. I was quite impressed by her character. Nothing in this book is predictable nor it goes according to plan. But, all does happens so conveniently. I mean people just find each other in the middle of nowhere Canada. In just the middle of the wilderness and little islets in the middle of the ocean.

Other than the all-so-convenient occurrences, this was a pretty interesting book and I enjoyed it.

Disclosure I received a free copy of this novel from the author in exchange for my honest review.
I hadn't read mystery for a while, and this was a good book to ease back into the genre.
Most of the characters did seem just different shades of the same color, and I think their reactions could have been a bit stronger, but I really liked that Elizabeth (first main character) never became a washed-out pansy. Throughout the entire story she was full of daring-do and would not shirk at anything to get her family back.
Characters 2 Stars
I thought I saw what was coming on this one, but I wasn't close! Throughout every chapter the level of intensity kept building until the book finished with a bang. As with all good mysteries, the reader is led on with a carrot, and I can safely say this book definitely fulfilled that requirement.
Plot 4 Stars
The action throughout this book moved very fast, and I (as a sometimes skimming reader) liked this. At parts it felt the story was stripped to the bare basics (no descriptions and such) but it was a nice effect for a quick read.
Style 4 Stars

Rating 3.3 Stars
Genre Historical Fiction / Mystery
YA Fiction
Mystery set at a time just after American Independence, Thomas Thorpe's Patriote Peril combines well-researched Canadian history with a touch of mystery and a feisty Englishwoman on the trail. The long list of characters, meeting and separating on different paths, makes this a somewhat fragmented tale. And numerous mistaken or falsified identities add a farcical humor to some scenes. There's an odd carelessness about life too, with Elizabeth eager to see her relatives all restored in good health after they disappear, but side-characters dealt death blows with mild abandon, as perhaps befits the era. Some truly evocative descriptions are paired with slow explanations of rapid action and the tension's a little uncertain as it builds.

The plots and counterplots are all resolved in the end and Elizabeth, one suspects, will go on to investigate more mysteries elsewhere. Meanwhile I've learned a lot about Canada, the politics of independence and the finances of logging from this tale. Sometimes confusing and disorientating, sometimes overly carefully explained, the story's somewhat uneven but pleasantly intriguing and informative. And the presence of a strong female protagonist in many of the scenes is certainly enjoyable.

Disclosure I received a free ecopy of this novel from the author in exchange for my honest review. I'm just sorry it took me so long to get around to it.
