Rumors
of War 
Peggy
Tibbetts' Rumors of War is a well-laid trap. Set
against the backdrop of Desert Storm, this novel
delves into the possibilities behind the real reason
governments traipse of to war. Tibbetts' characters
run the gauntlet from satisfyingly cliché to
vividly alive. Ilene is sinfully human, evoking
displeasure, sympathy and vengeful glee throughout
the pages of this flight from influential power. Her
struggle to stay true to herself and determine a
course between morality and mortality is a
fascinating drama within itself. Proving that the
only thing worse than a mother-in-law from hell is
one with money, the author ensnares her heroine into
a web of lies, where even the threat of clandestine
government is not as frightening as your own family
out to get you. This is one climactic thriller with
unpredictable twists that gratify and surprise. Review
written by Danielle Thorne. |
