Brother
A Novel of
Suspense by James Fredericks,
published by Bascom Hill
Reviewed by Shannon Dearing
I love a good suspense
novel. That means smart and inventive. A book that doesn’t assume I
don’t understand. Brother
by James Fredericks is just that; an intelligent, fast paced,
emotionally compelling story that throws in just enough roller coaster
to make me smile.
Brother is about Chase and
Jared Riordan. Identical twins who couldn’t be more different, and
distant; but as they each face a manipulative and dangerous foe, they
learn more about each other and themselves, than they had ever expected
to.
I loved every moment
of this book. It was beautifully executed. James Fredericks shows us a
varied range of emotion as we experience the bonds of brotherhood and
the bonds of friendship. I love that the protagonists are completely
different in so many ways and those differences are complex - the terms
by which they live and the laws that rule them. Each character was rich
and vibrant, beautifully adding to the story’s journey. If you love a
great suspense / thriller, please read Brother, you won’t regret
it.
