The Choir

WHAT READERS ARE SAYING:

This is a must read. Dr Jones displays great storytelling ability and crafts a tale of suspense, intrigue, and comedy, bundled with romance, sophistication, and existential issues related to self worth and purpose. -Dr Michael R Lawrence, neuropsychologist, Grand Rapids, Michigan

I was intrigued by this novel right from the opening chapter. I was led through a gripping story, beginning with unintentional identity theft and then on to the high seas, with rich characters forging deep connections through serendipity and chemistry. I did not put the book down until I had savoured the epilogue's satisfying revelations. A terrific read!
