Mind control has long
been a fascinating topic for me, and this book fits right in, exploring how a
stolen top-secret mind control phrase threatens to ignite global conflict. Because
this book was written by ex-intelligence, its nuances of the underbelly of the
CIA are written in captivating detail.
I read this book every
chance I could and finished it in a week. I recently discovered Chase Hughes
wrote a sequel to this book, entitled The Belgrade Archer. I am excited to read
it.
Pierce Reston is a member of an elite unit of extreme persuasion experts.
After people across the nation begin reporting 'missing time', and a series of unexplained terrifying coincidences, he's assigned to investigate.
Women going missing in Prague, and a national outbreak of amnesia trigger a full-scale search.
Pierce soon learns that someone is hell bound to use a secret “key” that causes a complete loss of mental control - engineering an epidemic that will change the course of history.
While investigating with Kelly Kennedy, a brand new operative, Pierce discovers something has been lost.…
Rachel’s
writing speaks to my heart. Her lyrical style is gripping. She touches on the
many aspects of trauma as she tells her own stories. Her writing is filled
with beautiful imagery like, “The day is worried about me.”
This book is part
of a series of three books. I have read and re-read them, finding much comfort
in the words. I highly recommend this book for those who enjoy healing through
reading how others healed.
I also must give Rachel’s cover a nod. It’s unique,
impactful and represents the depth of the book’s content.
Long before the #MeToo movement, Rachel Thompson started sharing what it was like to grow up and live with the constant trauma of childhood sexual abuse, sexual harassment, and other sexual crimes in her award-winning memoirs, Broken Pieces and Broken Places.
Broken People is the third book in this series, where she continues to explore, through hard-hitting essays and lyrical poetry, the difficulties and joys of navigating relationships, healing, and love in an environment not always conducive to survivors.
If you're a survivor or know one, you need this book.
I write what scares me. I tell uncomfortable truths.
I thought my
heart was going to break reading this book, yet I could not put it down.
Melissa laid her toddler down for a nap one day, and little Alice never woke
back up, having passed from unknown causes.
Melissa traverses the absolute
gut-wrenching emotions of losing a child. I shed a lot of tears as I read this
book. It is raw, vulnerable, and doesn’t leave any stone unturned in her journey
to try and grieve while also taking care of her older daughter, who’d also just
lost her best little sister.
My copy of this book is completely dog-eared, because
I had it in my purse for days, reading it at any time I could.
