Twisted Deception (eBook, ePUB)

A Novel

Beschreibung

Identical twins-the idea alone stirs unique thoughts of something special because identical twins are exceptional in this complicated world of ours. Originally designated to be one person, the original cell splits and separate into two, but identical human beings are the result. Twins are identical in appearance but not necessarily matching in their minds, hearts, and souls. Certainly, nature versus nurture comes into play, but really, deep down, how alike are they? Although the initial setting for this story is in the mountains of upstate New York, Ligotti takes you to Washington, DC, and Houston, Texas, and then returns you to where it all started, a horse farm in the Catskill Mountains. This story begins four years after Incredible Deception ends, and life has been good for the only remaining twin and his family. On a cold day in March, Brock gets an unexpected visit from the FBI and the CIA. This moment is the first plot point-when Brock's incredible deception twists upon itself and forces him to return to the past life he once lived as his brother, Blake. Through multiple adventures, the courage of Brock and his wife is tested, and the saga finally ends in a spellbinding and dramatic conclusion when Brock is driven into a trial and must prove the impossible. The reader will wonder, as does our protagonist, if he will ever return with his wife to his home and the good life he had enjoyed. The odds are against our hero, and you as the reader will realize he cannot disregard the truth and still win. The story will keep you guessing and wondering until the very last chapter. Twisted Deception, the sequel to Incredible Deception, is a must-read for those who love a love story and for all readers of suspense thrillers.

Autor

Gene Ligotti was educated at Adelphi University on Long Island and received his doctorate from New York University. Severe rheumatoid arthritis prevented Ligotti from continuing his successful thirty-year practice of dentistry in Huntington, New York. After he retired, Ligotti began writing as just something to do, but it soon became a driving force. He is an American Revolutionary history buff, has given lectures about the impact the Revolution had on Long Island, and has written three novels about interesting characters in the American Revolution. Ligotti is also the author of the much-applauded Time Never Heals, a biography of a First Battalion surgeon in Vietnam. He soon began writing suspense thrillers, which has become his special passion. Each suspense thriller has a love story as a subplot, but Twisted Deception, the sequel to the much-acclaimed Incredible Deception, continues as a love story with the suspense thriller element as the subplot. As a freelance writer, he wrote a monthly column for the Guide Magazine about the history of villages in the Catskill Mountains and of the romantic Hudson River. His widely praised articles on dentistry have been printed in various dental journals. Gene Ligotti lives in Smithtown, New York, with his wife, Corbina, where they can be near their daughters, Gina and Lisa, and their grandchildren: grandson Gino and twin granddaughters, Gabrielle and Juliette.
