A good read

The insidious plan to take control of America without shedding one drop of blood is brilliant, though costly in terms of time and money, but expected to pay monster dividends. The plot is simply to abduct one identical twin as a child. Patiently brainwash and train that child by raising them into what you want them to become. Though some investments will fail, nurture them for years, so as adults they can replace the sibling left behind once that twin attains positions of importance in the government.The conspiracy is successfully working until a minor glitch occurs. Amelia Pierce and her husband Burt Sergeant rescues an unconscious boy lying on the sands of the Caribbean's Isla Santa Vittoria. Shockingly, the lad turns out to be Matt Conrad of Dearborn, Michigan. Soon, Amelia, daughter of two deceased CIA operatives, begins to investigate how Matt ended up on the Sergeant family island. This leads her into the center of the plot to end America, as we now know it. The third Amelia Pierce espionage thriller, A WILDERNESS OF MIRRORS, is an exciting tale that never allows the reader a moment of rest. The story line is filled with action, modern mind control theories, and multiple twists that will stun the audience with its ease and enjoyment. Amelia is a wonderful eccentric character, whose offbeat inner thoughts enhance the tale though it does slow the pace down at times. Still, Amelia,s attempts as an amateur spy with the proper genes makes this a clever tale its predecessors (see DEATHRIGHT and END GAME) a must read for genre fans.Harriet Klausner
