REVIEWS BY MARTHA MARTHA A. CHEVES — RESIDENT REVIEWER THE ANGEL SOLUTION RE-LA Menu By: John Stipa ISBN: 978-1508824008 Publisher: Createspace Publication Date: June 18, 2016 Pages: 294 Kindle, paperback MARTHA CHEVES AUTHOR/REVIEWER "What's wrong?" Tammy said. "I'm not sure." "Yes, you are, you just won't admit it. Just like you won't admit these people aren't who we thought. They're here under false pretenses." Trek stared back, silent, until the mask of guilt slid over his face. "You have to make this right," Tammy said. "If you won't, I will." "I don't know how." "I'll help you. For one, stop referring to them as subjects. Dianna, Marcus and Hayden are people, flesh and bone, not test tubes and chemicals. They need our help. And another, they're not 'exhibiting interesting behavioral patterns'. They're reacting best they can to what we did to them, so take some responsibility for that." "It's too late." Tammy braced him by the shoulder. "It's never too late to do what's right." So, who are Dianna, Marcus and Hayden? All three are offspring from three very bright men. Three scientists who believed they could help people make the right decisions in life as well as cure the health problems invading the people of the world. They believed in themselves so much, that is until a mysterious accident destroyed everything they worked so hard to achieve. Tek and Tammy, with the funding from a wealthy industrialist, have picked up where the 3 scientists left off. The subjects are under Tek and Tammy’s total control, both physically and mentally, with memories and situations being implanted into their brains - for a while that is. Then things start to change. Dianna begins to suspect her surrounds and some of her own memories come to life with the unknowing help of her friend from the past, Renee. This ignites a harrowing series of events which has Tek and Tammy suspecting that they themselves are being played. This book has more twists and turns than any I think I've ever read. As soon as I think I've figured out what is going on and who is behind it, the author throws a wrench into my theory. And that means I can't go to bed until I see what will happen next. Yes, I spent several nights of reading up into the wee hours - and it was worth it. I really enjoyed this book. WRITERS’ TRICKS OF THE TRADE PAGE 19 JOHN STIPA, AUTHOR SEPTEMBER-OCTOBER 2016
