1st Reader Review of River Bones

5/15/2008 9:06:00 AM

by Mary Deal




First reader review of the published book.

 

Dear Talented Mary:  

 Finished your latest book last night. Another wondrous work! Loved reading River Bones.

 The psychological characterizations were hauntingly authentic especially the depiction of the psychopath.

 Your vivid descriptions of the Sacramento Delta transported me and kept me on location throughout this fascinating story.

 Your novel is definitely a page-turner. The beginning is engrossing. The middle is exciting, and the conclusion is explosive.

 ~ Elizabeth Sullivan, PhD, Clinical Psychologist, Somerset, CA

 To have a Clinical Psychologist tell me that I got the characterization of a psychopath right provided an intense Yes! moment for me.

Elizabeth became a fan when she first read my second novel, The Ka. When she learned about my first novel, The Tropics, she bought and read that one too. Now she's read River Bones and has asked to read more of my work.

 

I am blessed.
