The Affect of Red
By Phil Davis
Reviewed by R. Murry
Love at first sight is a minor theme of this gripping novel. Yes, the adventure starts with the encounter of two attractive professionals, Camille in a sexy red dress, but there the story takes a turn for the worst. Robert and Camille meet again and are put in a whirlwind.
Camille is involved in an international project that endeavors to save young women from what they most fear - slavery to man’s deranged sexual needs. This entanglement produces negative results.
Mr. Davis’ characters are well developed. He has them intelligently move through highs and lows of a detailed adventure – they are pitted against an evil group of highly motivated gangsters, who care little for human begins, enslaving and killing them for their pleasure and monetary gain.
All doesn’t go well in Robert and Camille Jordan’s journey as lovers, which is told with a tear jerking love – hate fest. Having a Kleenex box nearby, is a must. The government is on their side as protectors with lapses in security that leads to some heart breaking blows to all involved.
Phil Davis’ novel will keep you on your toes and have you moving forward with anticipation, leading toward a conclusion that will have you asking – why?
In the end, its Robert and Camille’s daughter, Sophia, who will carry the torch against the same evil that they had fought for twenty years. To what end, only fate can change the outcome, which I feel is fruitless – evil always prevails in some area of humanity.
Mr. Davis book is one a Romantic will enjoy, waiting for good to win over evil. He does an excellent job of telling this story, where one may believe that the faithful will be victorious.
It’s a good read that I recommend.
