Kate’s 2¢: “The Dilemma” by B. A. Paris

“The Dilemma” by B. A. Paris

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

   Peter Noble did a wonderful job of reading this suspenseful story for the National Library Service.

   Organized by using a time-line, the story progresses hour by hour with Adam and Livia alternating what they’re doing during that hour. The story progresses slowly, with a few back stories to flesh out the characters.

From the WEB:
