In this episode, I speak with Mary Carol Moore about her novel Last Bets, set on the Caribbean island of Bonaire. The novel features twists of fate, paranormal elements, high-stakes gambling—and a hurricane! I like to describe it as "Queen's Gambit" meets "White Lotus."
We share some personal anecdotes; I reminisce about playing backgammon with my brother, and we delve into Mary's scuba diving skills and camping experiences. The conversation highlights Mary's deep character development in her writing and her talent as a plein-air painter. I'm reminded of a previous conversation with my guest, Annora, a plein-air painter and how the beach truly connects us all.
