The Jukebox Queen of MaltaThe Jukebox Queen of Malta is an exquisite and enchanting novel of love and war set on an island perilously balanced between what is real and what is not. It's 1942 and Rocco Raven, an intrepid auto mechanic turned corporal from Brooklyn, has arrived in Malta, a Mediterranean island of Neolithic caves, Copper Age temples, and fortresses.

The Jukebox Queen of Malta is an exquisite and enchanting novel of love and war set on an island perilously balanced between what is real and what is not.
It's 1942 and Rocco Raven, an intrepid auto mechanic turned corporal from Brooklyn, has arrived in Malta, a Mediterranean island of Neolithic caves, Copper Age temples, and fortresses. The island is under siege, full of smoke and rubble, caught in the magnesium glare of German and Italian bombs.
But nothing is as it seems on Malta. Rocco's living quarters are a brothel; his commanding officer has a genius for turning the war's misfortunes into personal profit; and the Maltese people, astonishingly, testify to the resiliency of the human spirit. When Rocco meets the beautiful and ethereal Melita, who delivers the jukeboxes her cousin builds out of shattered debris, they are drawn to each other by an immediate passion. And, it is their full-blown affair that at once liberates and imprisons Rocco on the island.
In this mesmerizing novel, music and bombs, war and romance, the jukebox and the gun exist in arresting counterpoint in a story that is a profound and deeply moving exploration of the redemptive powers of love.

Well made, stylish handbag and a eye-catching color
Color: 1-bright Orange
I am very happy with the look and quality of this handbag; the fabric inside, and especially the deep, rich orange color I ordered - it does not appear to be available right now. I am glad to have chosen a solid color over some of the varied tones that appear harsh and cheap. I have not used the shoulder strap yet; the handles are comfortable to carry on the arm. I generally buy leather purses only so it is a pleasant surprise to be enjoying this vegan material, which looks more expensive than the price I paid.

Delighted!
Color: 1-purple Blue
I'm very pleased with this handbag. I got the blue with purple version and I just LOVE the color combination. I have a couple of the name brand version of this type and IMO, these are a decent dupe - especially at this price point. The handbag even came with a dust cover bag. The size of this one is roomy enough to carry what I need, without being the size of a piece of luggage. The detail and the zips are good quality and smooth, not faults at all. I'm delighted with this purchase, so much so, I've already ordered 3 more handbags of this brand, in different colors and styles.😊

Off-center handle placement
Color: Oil Wax, Color: Oil Wax
I am a huge fan of Braumin, but not willing to pay that price tag. Your product allows me to have beautiful handbags in a array of colors because they are so affordable! However, I just received my first one. The handle placement on one side of the bag is off center, as shown on the attached photo. Just wanted you to be aware. I plan to purchase several more and I trust this will be corrected. Looking forward to completing my wardrobe with these beautiful, colorful handbags!
