My Thoughts on Jane Doe:

Jane Doe is a wonderful fast-paced keep you on the edge of your seat suspense novel that you won’t be able to put down. Grab your copy and settle in. I wasn’t sure what to expect when I picked up this book to read it. It sounded like a great book but I wasn’t sure how they were going to play the amnesia bit in here. That’s always a tricky thing to do.

It was done excellently here. Memories came back just a little at a time. And then our Jane Doe or rather Raven didn’t tell anyone for the longest time. Maybe she should have. She didn’t want to endanger anyone else or let anyone know she was remembering. But then her sweet neighbour is shot and she keeps thinking that maybe she’s not the only one. Maybe this monster might have done this to someone else. She has to know. She has to save the potential others.

Great read. It was fast and I couldn’t put it down. Definitely a few loops threw in here and there that kept you on your toes wondering what was going to happen next. Even when Raven has it all figured out and tries to convince people of the truth they don’t believe her. Or don’t want to believe her because a man in such power surely couldn’t do such a thing. I think that’s pretty appropriate for the world we live in right now when it is the men in power who abuse it the most.

I highly recommend you get a copy of Jane Doe and have a read. You won’t be disappointed. It’s a wonderful book that’s well written. The characters are going to draw you in and you won’t want to leave at the end. I’m hoping for another book to revisit some of the characters for sure.

JANE DOE is my latest novel and it’s a doozy!

What’s the genre you ask? It’s suspense with lots of drama and action…but it also a political thriller…and it also has a lot of mystery components…but there’s the romance element as well… and let’s not forget the spiritual message! No matter what genre you classify it as it’s one I think you’ll enjoy!

So how did JANE DOE come about?

I’d finished all my edits on a current book and was feeling very uninspired. I had no idea for my next story, so I went on FB and asked people to send me an idea for my next suspense novel. An old high school friend sent me the suggestion to write a story where the main character struggled with memory loss.

Mmmm… but the old amnesia plot has been done and it’s a big no-no that writing experts warn against. I took the challenge and wrote JANE DOE. It’s definitely not your typical amnesia plot, but the main character is haunted by her memories.

First, because she doesn’t have them and then because she does!

Raven Marks survives a brutal kidnapping but just barely. Along with a broken body, her mind is broken. Even though she can’t remember the details of her kidnapping, she’s haunted by the thought that someone else is being victimized by the kidnapper she can’t remember.

Her journey to discover the truth leads her to the highest politicians in the state and then the country. Each reclaimed memory brings her closer to the truth—and to even more danger.

I’m not going to give away the plot, but there’s plenty of twists and turns to keep you reading late into the night!
