Parallel Lies

This was a very suspenseful book from Ridley Pearson. I liked the characters of Peter Tyler and Nell Priest. Pearson's characters are full and very humanly flawed, which I like. He makes the reader question right and wrong. The lines are often blurred.

I really like Pearson's Lou Bolt series. This is a standalone and, honestly, not really all that interesting. Umberto Alverez's wife and twins were killed when a train hit their car at a crossing. Alverez is now taking out revenge on the railroad.

Umberto Alvarez is grieving for his wife and children who died 3 years earlier from a negligent train (arm) warning. He studied and manipulated trains to fail, killing many. Peter Tyler, an ex-cop, now investigatory stops at nothing to catch him. Good suspense; however, once located (after all the deceipt) Umberto was teaching science at an elementary school under a different name...Peter Tyler let it go and didn't turn him in.

This book was an amazing book. I read thousands of books every year and if anyone is a good judge of a good book, lol, that would be moi! This book keeps you reading, You want to see what happens because you just don't know. Ridley Pearson a great author, definitely will read more of his books in future. Definitely a writer's inspiration!

Very good book. A great store that had lotss of action
