Viola Ted: Rule #1... Don't Call the Police (A Viola Ted Saga (R))($18.87Value)

Description

Unexpected violence ensues in this raw, unflinching, science-rooted Psycological Thriller. Following a second suspicious death in her low-income community, Viola Ted's coming-of-age is cut short in her small town when she's kidnapped by a serial killer who is searching for a missing book. Navigating lies and physical attacks, without a way out, Viola attempts to play his sinister mind games to stay alive. When she finds the book, she uncovers a terrible secret involving deceit and a conspiracy that dates back six hundred years . To save herself, Viola may have to destroy her family. But can she? Viola Ted evokes the emotional intensity of Karin Slaughter's The Good Daughter, where a single act of unimaginable horror shatters a family, while echoing the enduring lesson of the Game of Thrones Stark family: "The lone wolf dies, but the pack survives." Trapped by circumstances beyond her control, Viola learns that survival demands patience, resilience, and ruthless clarity. She waits-not in surrender, but for the moment that will allow her to escape her deprived captor. At its core, Viola Ted is a story about taking the shame from the innocent and placing it where it belongs: on the perpetrator. And unlike Game of Thrones, the monsters in Viola Ted are not fantasy. They are real. That is what makes them terrifying.

We are always rooting for her. -Dana Isaacson- New York You won't see the twists coming. I almost threw the book in shock, but I had to keep reading! -Anne Michelle, Memphis WOW! Mersaidee is an incredible storyteller. A darkness in humanity is exposed in an intriguing and complex story. It's a page-turner. Get Ready! -Claire Kiser, Destin Viola Ted embodies the truth-telling characteristics of many of Karen Slaughter's domestic noir thrillers that I love. The suspense in Viola Ted kept me turning those pages with its gut-punch, fast-paced, emotional storytelling, revealing the lengths people will go through to keep their secrets hidden. I connected with her beginning story. Bring on book two, please! -Miss.G, Canada As I attempt not to give away any plot twists, which blew my mind! I was on the journey with Viola from chapter one. I had to know why her mom set up these rules for Viola in the first place. The death of people she loves and the trauma of her situation are sadly what too many of us can secretly identify with. Her story demonstrated her resilience to me in this unimaginable horror she and her mother lived through. I am a Viola Ted fan! I am ready for the next book in this saga! I'm in the van! -DS, Nashville Mersaidee was born in a small town in Ontario, Canada. She lives in the Southern part of the United States with her family.
