The Edge of Sanity - How far would YOU go to protect your family?
A decent,
ordinary man, a man who has already suffered the loss of one child, Daniel
Conner is forced by extraordinary circumstances into being a hero. Tortured,
forcibly drugged—heroin still pulsating nauseatingly through his veins—his wife
and daughter degraded, Daniel knows their kidnapper is beyond reasoning with. But
does being pushed one step beyond endurance justify doing the unthinkable?
High on
drugs, indebted to his supplier, and desperate, Charlie Roberts takes Daniel's
wife and daughter hostage. Daniel does everything within his power to rescue
the situation bloodlessly. Eventually though, Daniel realises that with or
without violent mood swings induced by amphetamines and cocaine, Charlie
Roberts is a psychopath. He wants more than Daniel's money.
He wants
him.
The Edge of Sanity: a harrowing story of
hope amid loss and betrayal.
Shortlisted
for the Crime, Thrillers & Mystery SpaSpa Book
Award for books published in 2014.
The Edge of Sanity is another edgy thriller from the wonderful Sheryl Browne who has created interesting and complex characters within
the book. Each is fighting their own personal battle, both real and perceived and when two worlds clash, a type of war breaks out between a good man and one who is intent on getting what he wants, no matter who gets hurt in the process. Daniel must face his demons and the man who could ultimately destroy Daniel and his family. But, how do you reason with someone like Charlie Roberts to save your family? A drug addict who owes his dealer a lot of money is a man who cannot be reasoned with. Charlie's original intent is to pay off his dealer but toying with Daniel and his family soon becomes part of an evil game of cat and mouse that sees Charlie constantly trying to bait Daniel. Desperate times may call for desperate measures. The story shows
how one man who is good and decent, will go to any lengths to save and
protect the ones he loves. The back story, which is vital to helping us
understand Daniel and his family is heartbreaking and the reader feels
such empathy and sympathy with him. It takes one tragedy to tear the
family apart but their love for one another could ultimately be their
greatest strength.
The Edge of Sanity is the type of book that I found very hard to put
down. It is exciting, frightening and thrilling all at once. It kept me
up very late at night reading. One chapter at a time was never enough. I
needed to know what happened. The book becomes as addictive as the drugs which have lead Charlie Roberts and Daniel to this point in their lives! The plot is well planned and clever and
the story is brilliantly executed. If you like psychological thrillers
then this book is definitely one for you. Very highly recommended!
