More Life as a Dog by L.A Davenport

Time will Tell- Eva Jordan-Family life/ Mystery

Hunter Black is begin reported as dead and one family are glad to hear the news as he

attacked their daughter Cassie. Lizzie, Cassie’s mother lost her father a year ago and still

misses him terribly. The family are questioned by the police and no one is quite sure

where anyone else was on the day that he died. We learn a more about Salocin

Lemalf (father and grandfather to the family) named after Nicolas Flamel who was

attributed to be able to turn scrap into gold and knew the secret of immortality.

I loved Salocin in the previous books( 183 times a Year and All The Colours

In Between) and it was lovely to learn more about him. When he met his wife

and when Lizzie was small, what life was like for them and what he got up to.

One of his famous phrases was “It’s not a life, it’s an adventure”. How right he

was. Each person in the book (and the previous ones) is a real character which

shines through the pages. This is a who-dunnit, but it’s more a tale of family

and relationships both past and present and how these affect our daily lives.

The ties that bind us are not always blood and there is that deep down

feeling of togetherness amongst the characters. This is the third book in the

series and whilst it would stand alone it makes more sense having read

at least the one before (All The Colours In Between).

Of love and life, of laughter and tragedy and how the past can affect the

future. A truly wonderful read, a real gem of a book.
