Description
Winner of the 2015 Best Indie Book Award and a BRAG Medallion Honoree—FACE OF OUR FATHER is too literary to be a thriller, yet too thrilling to put down—a unique blend of action and intimacy—a thriller with a soul. Stuart and Angela Pierce, like many disillusioned careerists, are busy reinventing their lives. Stu reduces his flying schedule to train for triathlons, while Angie, a vocal women’s advocate, escapes the daily horrors of a prosecutor’s job to pursue pro bono work. But death threats soon prove that the only thing Angie escaped was the protective arm of the District Attorney’s office. With a horrific photo of a ritual stoning Stu’s only tangible clue, he sets out to protect a wife who refuses to protect herself. Obsessed with catching a murdering rapist, Angie plunges them both into a web of global intrigue. But who, indeed what, is the real enemy? Honor. Love. Life. All are at stake as the Pierces struggle to uncover the truth, both the enemy’s, and their own. Sometimes the biggest enemy can be the one right next to you . . . . One part “The Bourne Identity,” one part “Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy,” and one part “The Notebook,” this poignant tale leaves the reader haunted by its characters long after the novel’s final page. How often does fiction change who we are? How we define courage, integrity, prejudice, and evil? To get at all that, a novel needs a rollercoaster of a plot coupled with an acute understanding of identity, love, and where these intersect. Challenge your beliefs. Read it.
