One woman's journey into insanity, as her mind struggles to process something too horrible to contemplate; a son's battle to rescue his mother from the abyss; and a female private detective's venture into the twilight zone. The truth is buried in the lies as these people discover that not all evil is born that way; some of it is man-made.

When Corinne suddenly - and literally - goes crazy one day, her son, Ian, hires a private investigator to learn the cause of her rapid descent into dementia. After all, mental illness doesn't run in their family, and she appeared healthy, happy, and sane just days before her sudden psychotic break. So, given the unexpected onset of her paranoid delusions and odd behavior, Ian has more than enough reason to be suspicious regarding precisely what led to it all. <br /><br />What the investigator ultimately discovers, though, is much, much more than Ian could ever have suspected, and as he learns more about the true source of Corinne's breakdown, he becomes enmeshed in a twisted ensemble of hidden plots and subplots that endanger not only his mother's life - but his as well. As he watches it all unfold before him, Ian eventually realizes that perhaps Corinne is not as crazy as he originally thought... <br /><br />Darcia Helle has crafted a sure-fire winner with Hit List. Rife with compelling plotlines and superbly crafted characters, Helle's engrossing tale is a top notch addition to the world of suspense thrillers. Moving at a fast, but steady pace, the action in Hit List is peppered with just enough surprising plot twists to ensure that the reader stays on his/her toes and maintains the highest level of interest throughout.

A recommended literary treat. <br /><br />Renee Washburn <br />Apex Reviews
