I totally enjoyed this book. I learned new and reviewed previously known information about Vincent’s story and enjoyed the intertwining of the modern day strong women and the historical one.
Thanks!

Story
After Tova Sullivan’s husband died, she began working the night shift at the Sowell Bay Aquarium, mopping floors and tidying up. Keeping busy has always helped her cope, which she’s been doing since her eighteen-year-old son, Erik, mysteriously vanished on a boat in Puget Sound over thirty years ago. Tova becomes acquainted with curmudgeonly Marcellus, a giant Pacific octopus living at the aquarium. Marcellus knows more than anyone can imagine but wouldn’t dream of lifting one of his eight arms for his human captors—until he forms a remarkable friendship with Tova.

All the characters are unique and quirky and work so well together to weave this story. Marcellus brings it all together.

It’s hard to beat a Michael Connelly book. I had read it earlier and now listened to the audio book. Enjoyed both. Also found the discussion about the real Fair Warning “ interesting. Thanks.

Compelling, timely, inspirational , thought-provoking, educational, conversation-starting and deep - but not so deep that the reader isn’t brought right along in the story.
I highly recommend this book.
