Ce commentaire est de: His Child (Paperback)
I don't normally like Intrigues, but this one was wonderful. Intelligently and tightly-written, with spare but beautiful and believable love scenes. It doesn't get any better than this.

His Child,
By
Ce commentaire est de: His Child (Paperback)
Talented newcomer Delores Fossen debuts with the tense and exciting thriller, "His Child." Late one night Jessie Brandon confronts Texas political candidate Jake McClendon with a gun and an unbelievable story. She claims she was kidnapped, held prisoner and artificially inseminated with his child. Jake doesn't believe such a crazy tale. Then it becomes clear that someone is trying to kill her and Jessie knows things she can't possibly know. Though he doesn't trust her he has to keep her close until he discovers if she's being used to destroy him. Could this stranger be carrying his child?"His Child" has the kind of storyline that is very hard to believe. Many people will probably read the first two sentences of that summary, think it's stupid and pass on this book. What makes it stand out and makes it such an entertaining read is the writing. Fossen is a talented author and the story flies by. The pace is incredibly fast and the twists never stop. This is a real pageturner. I was having such a fun time reading it that I was able to get past how far-fetched it was. The mystery is strong with a number of suspects to keep the reader guessing. The characters are dynamic and the situation they find themselves in is naturally dramatic, providing the story with a strong conflict and highly emotional scenes. Although one Big Misunderstanding threatens to derail the story, Fossen manages to create enough empathy for her characters that I wasn't alienated. I cared enough about the characters to want to see them overcome it. "His Child" is a book I read in one sitting. Despite its convoluted premise, it has all the emotion, mystery and suspense of a great Intrigue. The biggest compliment I can give this book is that it contains most of the elements I'm tired of, and I still liked the book. One of the most sheerly entertaining Intrigues I've read in a while.
