Symphony of Secrets by Brendan Slocumb
5.0

4.75 stars.

Brendan Slocumb's 2nd novel does not disappoint! Another home run of a book!

Bern is a professor of music in VA and is contacted by the Delaney Foundation because they have found something amazing and need his help.

Bern takes the 1st flight to NYC because he is so excited to be chosen for this amazing task. He is quickly given an NDA and told he can share the secret with no one or suffer very damning consequences. He is able to get help from his friend Ebony who is a cyber security whiz and great with all things digital. They are working together to uncover all the secrets of the Delaney Foundation secret.

This is a well thought out book that keeps the reader guessing the entire time. There are some slow places in the middle, but the twists pick the pace back up and keep things moving until the surprising ending. Some of the twists are unbelievable, but this is fiction after all and makes for great readability.

I look forward to Slocumb's next novel. The mixture of music and music history with mystery is a great combination.
