He skillfully incorporates engaging dialogue, intriguing mystery, and fast-moving action to keep the reader in suspense right up to an intense dramatic unexpected conclusion. Disappearance at Mount Sinai ensures author Jim Musgrave a growing fan base eagerly anticipating another sequel in the Pat O'Malley Historical Mystery Series." Richard Blake, Blog Critics "Jim Musgrave is an award-winning author and it's easy to see why. The characters are well-developed and feel authentic; he captures the essence of America's reconstructive era perfectly and the pace of the story is steady. The mystery is complex and dramatic without being far-fetched or clich�. Musgrave even nailed the dialogue and interactions between such strongly divided cultures. The conclusion, just like the rest of the book, does not disappoint. Disappearance at Mount Sinai is absolutely a mystery worth reading." Ashley LaMar, Closed the Cover Book Reviews
