The Resolution by Lachlan Pirie


 Book Excerpt:

"Jonathan Little, an ex-criminal lawyer, suggests to his cellmate, Daniel Rodriguez, that they should hatch a plan to "get rid" of their wives – who they hate more than anything – for good.

Their plan is fool-proof and would be perfect if not for the tenacity of Daniel's wife – the beautiful, courageous, life-embracing Janet Rodriguez.

What starts as a vengeful plot turns into a story of misplaced love and recompense as both men face the women who absorbed most of their lives.

Uniquely Australian, this satire of love gone wrong is an elaborate thriller that begs the question: at what point is there no turning back?"

Review:
"The Resolution" by Lachlan Pirie

My Sentiments:

This author gave the reader quite a read in keeping up with what was going on with these characters. Be ready for many twists and turns, along with quite a suspenseful read in this 'dark humor and satire read.' Indeed Daniel and Jonathan were some strong characters, and let's not leave out Janet, which slightly offered some dark humor to the story. By the way, these characters had been in prison. Unfortunately, to get the whole story, you will have to put up this read...which is rather long to get the story that will keep you turning the pages to the end, especially if you like suspense.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and Ocean Reeve Publishing.
