Rideau Review Book reviews by Pat Little This month a selection of recent paperbacks is reviewed. Come in and browse through the many new addit- ions in all branches. The Promise by Danielle Steel - a love story with a difference - relaxing - a pleasant read. Noble Madness by Kaye Preston Hill - legends of the Micmacs mixed with thorâ€" oughbred racing in a Canadian setting. An interesting and well-told tale. The Dain Curse by Dashiell Hammett - horror and suspense make this novel hard to put down - not for the nervous. The Cheap Detective by Robert Grossbach - adapted from Neil Simon's screenplay of the same name - nurder and laughter go hand in hand. If you can‘t get to see the movie, read the book and laugh al- most as hard. The Big Footprints by Hammond Innes - the master of adventure thrills again with this novel set in Africa. Big game hunting and intrigue with a great cast of characters make this one tops. Holocaust by Gerald Green - seen recent- ly on NBC, this novel brings to life the horror of the Nazi extermination camps of World War II. It shows the dignity and courage of those who survived and offers hope for the future.
