5.0 out of 5 stars This one has it all, February 2, 2005
This review is from: The Pygmalion Venture (Paperback)
Affluent members of Washington society, the lowest of the lowlife,big time drug deals,amnesia,plastic surgery - there is a lot going on in this one. Plenty of great dialogue and just enough descriptions to put you securely in the scene without bogging you down with details. This writer has surely done her research on a wide variety of subjects.
Bonus for an already great book - chapters that are short enough to make for efficient reading for someone too busy to read in extensive sittings. One is never too far from a scene change and thus a convenient chapter ending stopping place.

5.0 out of 5 stars This new author deserves to be read and enjoyed, May 4, 2005
This review is from: The Pygmalion Venture (Paperback)
The Pygmalion Venture is well-researched, smartly written, and has vivid descriptions of Washington DC area and lower Alabama. I became emotionally involved with the characters and could not put the book down until finished. It is throughly entertaining and has significant social benefits arising from characters' experiences in America's serious drug trafficing problems. I will definitely look forward to reading the next publication from this new author.
