Symphony of Secrets

Average rating4.1
Brendan Slocumb has shown that he’s the real deal with his second novel; “The Violin Conspiracy” wasn’t a one-hit wonder. Slocumb weaves his intricate knowledge of music into a compelling tale of the ouvre of a famous (fictitious) composer’s origin and development. Written from the perspective of a Black musician, which Slocumb is, the tale is told with great pathos. Slocumb’s passion for music and the Black community resonate throughout this book. I enjoyed it thoroughly.
