Hey there Earthlings, Alternatives and Trollers. Put down that mouse and lend an ear. Welcome to The Bandersnatch blog where we talk weird, wacky and wondrous. I'm The Bandersnatch and I have no idea what I'm doing.


Today's books I suggest are: The Poppy Fields by Nikki Erlick and The Stolen Life of Colette Marceau.


THE POPPY FIELDS

by

Nikki Erlick

What if there were a cure for the broken-hearted?


Welcome to the Poppy Fields, where there's hope for even the most battered hearts to heal.


Here, in a remote stretch of the California desert, lies an experimental and controversial treatment centre that allows those suffering from the heartache of loss to sleep through their pain...and keep on sleeping. After patients awaken from this prolonged state of slumber, they will finally be healed. But only if they're willing to accept the potential shadowy side effects.


On a journey to this mystical destination are four very different strangers and a little dog: Ava. A book illustrator: Ray, a fireman: Sasha, an occupational therapist: Sky, a free spirit: and a friendly pup called PJ. As they attempt to make their way from the Midwest all the way to the Poppy Fields – where they hope to find Ellis, its brilliant, enigmatic founder – each of their secrets and mysterious motivations threaten to derail their voyage.

THE STOLEN LIFE OF COLETTE MARCEAU

by

Kristin Harrel


Colette Marceau has been stealing jewels for nearly as long as she can remember, following the centuries-old code of honour instilled in her by her mother, take only from the cruel and unkind, and give it to those in need. Never was their family tradition more important than seven decades earlier, when Annabel and Colette worked side by side in Paris to fund the French Resistance.

But one night in 1942, it all went wrong. Annabel was arrested by the Germans, and Colette's four-year-old sister, Liliane, disappeared in the chaos of the raid, along with an exquisite diamond bracelet sewn into the hem of her nightgown for safekeeping. Soon after, Annabel was executed, and Liliane's body was found floating in the Seine – but the bracelet was nowhere to be found,


Seventy years later, Colette – Who has “redistributed” $30 million in jewels over the decades to fund many worthy organizations – has done her best to put her tragic past behind her, but her life begins to unravel when the long-missing bracelet turns suddenly turns up in a museum exhibit in Boston. If Colette can discover where it has been all this time – and who owns it now – she may finally learn the truth about what happened to her sister. But she isn't the only one for whom the bracelet holds answers, and when someone from her childhood lays claim to the diamonds, shes forced to confront the ghosts of her past as never before. Against all odds there may still be a chance to bring a murderer to justice – but first, Colette will have to summon the courage to open her own battered heart.
