Book Review
Published by Scribner
Even though the basic story line isn’t particularly original – wife
left to prove her husband isn’t guilty of the crimes for which he is accused
and she has to fight off the bad guys – it does work. The addition of a little art history and some
history about Russia is smoothly incorporated into the story. It works because the writing is fluid and the
plot is well thought out. Yes, you can
figure out who the real perpetrator is and even predict some of the story line. However, the main character, Sophie Medina a
photojournalist, is what holds the story together.
Sophie is a strong, independent, likeable woman who is also a
believable character. She has no super powers, no eccentricities and no comic
sidekicks. Just the firm belief that her
husband is innocent and they will reunite.
She returns to Washington, D.C. to be near family and friends and to
start her life over. But since her
husband’s enemies are convinced that she knows where he is they watch her every
move. She is soon running from them in an effort to save her life.
Multiple Exposure is the first in a new series by author Ellen Crosby and I am
looking forward to reading the next installment.
