Caryssa climbs the corporate ladder of Silicon Valley, driven by power and money. The tech-hub capital is in the palm of her hands until she brings a child into the world and nothing is about herself anymore. She sees the techno-crazed connection to modern society becoming like that dystopian sci-fi played out in the movies.

Surrounded by parents turning inward to truth and empathy, each is faced with thorny moral choices while attempting to positively impact lives. They find themselves trying to balance out the reality and spiritual costs of American politics. For Parisian artist Anna, this means opening her heart to the boy who fatally struck her daughter in a skateboarding accident.

Echoed along the way is a startling awareness of a harsh culture of irrelevant revenge---ours--- mindlessly threatening to squander all that is dear to us. Behind the cultural culprits lurk the politicians, business and religious leaders wearing deceiving character masks of noble cause.

This culture shock sends the parents on a stirring of their collective conscience, bringing them to understand the ache of late America. It motivates them to take affirmative action for the greater good and secure a better future for all that matters most---especially their children.

And how might a baffling bloody dove found behind a Sausalito art gallery be symbolic of secret society behind a spread of tyranny, away from world peace?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

T.L. Mumley (born Teresa Lynn Sullivan) is a former senior marketing analyst in Silicon Valley, a mother, wife and happy homebody. She holds an AS in Fashion Merchandising from Lasell, Bachelors of Arts from MCLA and an MBA from Northeastern, with a twenty-year history in high-tech marketing and sales. An optimist at heart, she went on a personal crusade of community service and marketing for the greater good, often in her PJs from home office.

To spice up a decade of writing marketing content published in key technology magazines, she aspired to become a novelist with her debut MASKS OF MORALITY. She has also published twelve articles online surrounding social justice, which seemed to mysteriously disappear within the cyber hole she writes about.

Fueled by dark chocolate and good red wine, she can be found skiing and hiking mountains, walking, reading or doing a downward facing dog while gardening.

Although she will always be a Bostonian at heart, she lives in the San Francisco Bay area with her husband and son.

What a thrilling, meaningful, suspenseful, and relevant story!

Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2017

What a thrilling, meaningful, suspenseful, and relevant story!

You have the protagonist who is trying to save the world, one step at a time. Once upon a time, she worked for a huge corporation. And while she misses the six-figure paycheck, she refuses to work for a company with a division that she feels is sketchy. She has learned a great deal about the world, war, corruption, government, agendas, the environment and so on. Her eyes have been opened. She can't unsee what she now knows. She sees the world for what it is, and who manipulates it for profit.

While she is soul searching, wanting a well-paid job, without compromising her morals, her friend is going through turmoil.

Anna, having lost a child in a car accident, a while ago, is still in pain. This pain is only made worse when the case is reopened. But she has to decide if the driver of the car - who is also a child - deserves such drastic punishment. This story is heartbreaking but undeniably addictive. You won't be able to stop reading as this story unfolds.

There are many twists and turns in the various storylines. It's impossible to get bored. The characters are perfectly characterized, with individual quirks and passions. I enjoyed reading about these people and their lives, I felt submerged in their decisions as if they were my own.
Needless to say, the book itself is superb. I highly recommend a read.

The writing, as expected, is terrific. A fast pace - but not rushed - takes us on these many addictive journeys. The descriptions of scenery are beautiful, creating vivid images in our mind. And the depictions of emotions are so well explained, that we feel them also. We feel joy, then panic, then fright. We experience a rainbow of emotions through this fantastic novel.

All in all, it has the right ingredients. It keeps you glued to each and every word. There is suspense in buckets and plenty of entertaining and thought-provoking conversations. You can't help but admire the protagonist, as she is on a worthy mission and won't compromise her beliefs for anyone or anything.

An intelligent, exciting, page-turner, written with a purpose. You'll not just be entertained, but educated.

Beautifully written, vivid San Francisco settings, and meaningful social commentary

Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2019

I loved the story of Anna, a woman who finds the empathy and compassion to forgive a young man who caused terrible hurt to her family, but all the characters are fascinating. They live in vividly drawn settings from San Francisco and the surrounding areas. The story blends thoughtful criticism of excess consumption, the corrupting influence of massive military spending, and has a strong pro-environment theme -- all good! And the description of food are great (I'm a foodie)

Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2018

Masks of Morality is indeed a “political twister,” the story of how three Northern California women and their families whose idyllic lives become embroiled in politics and murder. It’s a real page-turner. I couldn’t put it down. The novel is filled with one surprise after another.

Smooth Read But Provocative

Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2017

Hip San Francisco Bay Area meets the bleak political reality that defines our life. The author pulls this off with preaching, but leaves us asking questions of her excellent characters and ourselves.

Parents, You Are Not Alone In Your Fears

Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2018

It is a very insightful story, a broad look at what every parent is concerned about for their children. If you are a parent and want to bond with someone who had the same fears as you do, I highly recommend Masks of Morality.

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2017

"T.L. Mumley's Masks of Morality beautifully captures the profound shift in consciousness many woman experience after childbirth while awakening them to a deeper purpose. Readers will enjoy the transformation of the main character Caryssa Flynn as she discovers a deep soul calling as a political activist and obsession to change a corrupt and broken political system. Masks of Morality is a stunning page turner until the end and relevant in today's political climate."

A detailed account of what's wrong with America

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 1, 2021

Verified Purchase

The author has set out to awaken 'mind and soul'. This account does that by discussing in great detail what is wrong and how to put it right, placing the words in the ardent mouths of the affluent characters. The author states that if it upsets people, so much the better. I think she has achieved that. Certainly those who believe in current American values will be challenged to the core. I suspect it will also distress those who are not able to make the choices taken by the characters for whom not working does not mean no food on the table nor a roof over their head.This is an extremely informative book. A thought provoking read if you are concerned by environmental issues.
