Reading

Recently, I’ve been making trips to the Pioneer Community Library. Managed to find several interesting reads:

1) Virgin Lies – by Roderick Anscombe.
A psychological thriller about a kidnapping incident narrated by a doctor, where the only eye witness was a mildly psychotic lady. Faced with a kidnapper who is smug about his misdeed and out to challenge the system, the authorities had to use certain unauthorised methods to save the girl from death as a result of dehydration, where the doctor’s principles will come under scruntiny.

2) BloodLine
Dracula lives on! Set in England during the First World War, a junior intelligence officer has to battle it out with the successor to the throne of the Count Dracula, who relentlessly claims his beloved sister as his bride. However, as it was revealed that their long lost mother was still alive, things take a serious turn and the plan which was originally to kill the vampires turned into a plan of vengence, as the desperate brother strived to assume the dark power of the cursed night.

3) A Dirty Little War by John Martinkus
Dirty Little War as real account by John Martinkus about the events in East Timor leading up to its protection and subsequent independence by the United Nations. The book documents the atrocities of the Indonesian authorities under their military dictatorship, in a narrative style.
