No. 17 Within High Fences

There was nothing different about that night. It was the same as every other night, I thought. But that night, my life started to change. (p.5)

I read a book, 'Within High Fences.' The main characters are Nancy, Tom and George. Nancy works as a guard. Tom is her boyfriend, so they live together. They have a lot of moey, so they get whatever they want. But she doesn't want to live with him any more because he is often angry with her and looks down her. George is an asylum seeker and stay at Nancy's working place. One day, Nancy saw George was kind to a little child. She comes to be interested in him little by little. If you know more, please read it!

No.16 Wild Country

Tess and Grant are tour leaders for a group walking holiday in France. But they don't get on well - at least at the start... (from back cover)

I read a book, 'Wild Country.' This is love story. The main characters are Tess and Grant. They are tour leader and work together. But, they don't like each other at first. They look down on each other. During tour, they have different opinions, some accidents happen and many other things. Although they have a lot of quarrel, they fall in love each other little by little. So I was glad that this story had a happy ending. I enjoyed it! If you are interested in the book, please read it!

No.15 Strong Medicine

Dr Mark Latto travels to California to learn about a new medicine that his friend, Deborah Spencer, is developing. When he arrives, he finds that Deborah is dead and the book that she was writing has disappeared. (from back cover)

I read a book, 'Strong Medicine.' The series of the story is mystery, so I was surprised at the end of the story. Many people appear in this story, so it was complicated for me to understand. The main character is Mark Latto who is a British doctor. And Deborah Spencer who is an American doctor of Chinese medicine. They are friends. One day, Latto goes and meets Spencer to know how to cure Parkinson's Disease. However, Spencer has already dead. What happened to her. If you know more, please read it!
