Persuasions Of The Mind

Persuasions of the Mind is the second of Laura Fogle's riveting novels featuring Evan Danes, a mute who can neither speak nor write and a psychiarist, Marcia Hemstead, who not only is able to find a way to comunicate with him; she falls in love with him.

Evan opens the unsealed envelope he finds on the porch at his feet and removes the note. Unfolding it, he reads just three simple words that are pieced together from various print sources. It simply reads: "We have her." He nearly falls to his knees to weep, but this is a time for action, not self-indulging pity. He tries to feel Marcia's thoughts, but is unable to. Terrified, he runs down the steps and takes off through the snow as fast as his feet can carry him. He knows exactly where he is headed; he just hopes he is not too late.

Separated from his love and knowing her life hangs in the balance, Evan Danes reunites with his former rival and psychiatrist, Dr. Edgar Hayes, for help in arranging a daring rescue.

A change of fate finds Evan in Marcia's captor's lair being held and tortured by a face from his past who demands not only revenge -- but a piece of his soul.

Can Evan and Edgar put their struggles and past opposition aside in order to save themselves and the woman they love?
