Reseña del libro "Who Sinned? (en Inglés)"
An atheist recovered from amnesia only to discover that he was sentenced to be executed 22 years before. Gail Richards, a married woman, surfaced from his past with a dark romantic agenda and a mission to save his soul, and the atheist, who was then an American war hero, was determined to lose both. Gail was happily married to her teen age sweet heart, John, who had recently lost his father very violently and it affected him with doubts and depression and a mind poisoned by thoughts of vengeance. Unable to have a kid, they both had tremendous pressure and anxiety, until her friend, Tania, surrogated for her. An old teen age flame of John herself, Tania's beautiful pregnant growing body became a veritable Helen of Troy, and drama mounted as she and John battled their temptation. Love and forgiveness rectified an awkward situation, and the birth of the newborn mended the rift between the two friends and united them to face a life shattering tragedy. The miracle child was born and things were on an even keel until the precious child went missing. Gail met Norman Pike for the first time and the tragedy of the missing child, and the outcome of the search provided a dramatic and mysterious twist. There was drama and high tension in the courtroom as one side exposed the weakness of the death penalty, and the other, the flaws of a plea for insanity. The jury's finding and the judge's decision was the climactic cream on the top of that cake of drama. That and Gail's infatuation with that strange man, broke up Gail's and John's marriage. The story of Gail and this man then took centre stage as the main plot, as she searched the bridges of the Seine, on a whim and a dream, for this lover who was confirmed dead. Gail's experience on the Notre Dame Bridge left the protagonists and the readers breathless. Gail went to that bridge with a 22 year old dream and left broken-hearted, disoriented and confused. She was a wreck, and lost again following another hopeless dream. Although Gail and John went their separate ways, they each encountered the power of faith and forgiveness; and some divine intervention showed them the way back. The broken woman continued to fight for the life and soul of her lover as she tried to understand how this mild-mannered American hero could have been a serial killer. Gail followed the psychiatrists as they regressed him painfully to regurgitate his horrific childhood. It pained Gail immensely but fortified her with faith and forgiveness as she listened to Pike forgive his foster parents. The question still remained: was it justice to put this humane, kind and loving hero to death? Who really sinned? Did he lose his life or his soul? None or both? All those questions hung in the balance holding us on tenterhooks until the end. The author answered those questions, thrilling us right to the end, as he served up a delectable cocktail of courtroom drama, mystery, spirituality, sex and murder, delightfully marinated in romance.
