Caribbean Island High Stakes and Risky Decisions: A Dive into "Last Bets" with Mary Carroll Moore

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I speak with Mary Carroll 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.Discover more about Mary Carroll Moore's books and paintings on her website: https://www.marycarrollmoore.com/Buy her book here!
