Book Reviews of Black as Night: A Fairy Tale Retold

Book Review: More Mystery, Intrigue and Romance
Summary: 5 Stars

Caught in a tangled web of envy, greed, and deceit, Blanche is frantically running away. But we don't know from whom. From its opening pages, we enter a world of more mystery, intrigue, and romance as Blanche, Rose, Bear, and Fish return in the sequel to The Shadow of the Bear.

Why is Blanche running away?

Bear, her boy friend, has gone to Europe with his younger brother Fish to sort through his life. Blanche's sister, Rose and her mom have left for a long vacation in California.

Frightened, alone, and pursued by two punks on a New York subway, Blanche seeks refuge in a once abandoned church, only to find someone else is now living there. Actually, it's not one person, but a whole community of friars.

But is Blanche safe? Can she run away or will she be pursued even here in the security of this new community.

More than a mystery thriller or a dressed up fairy tale, this book touches on a number of themes, as well as tackles some weighty contemporary issues. What is unconditional love? How do we treat those who are poor, sick, or suffering?

Will Bear and Blanche's family return home and find her before it's too late? Will she find out the truth before it's too late? Read Black as Night and find out.

Summary of Black as Night: A Fairy Tale Retold

Over the summer in New York City, seven friars who work with the homeless find a runaway girl named Nora, while Bear Denniston searches for his missing girlfriend, Blanche, in a suspenseful retelling of the Snow White story.
