Review # 1 was written on 2013-05-16 00:00:00 Daniel Oghina Athenais Montespan, wife and mother, becomes mistress to Louis 14th, but then falls from grace. Not compelling enough for me to finish

Review # 2 was written on 2016-07-01 00:00:00 Matthew Stowers All the Conspirators (1998) is Carlos Bulosan's posthumous detective novel, published 42 years after the author's death. It exposes the deplorable actions of persons who collaborated with the Japanese enemy during the war and who betrayed their country and fellowmen in exchange for wealth and comfort during the Japanese occupation. This entertaining novel is accessible, full of action, and a fast read. But on the serious side, it provides a damning portrait of traitorous characters who sold out their souls by informing on freedom fighters. They are always waiting in the wings, these frigging collaborators. I must write a longer review of this, maybe after reading his other posthumous novel.
