ENTANGLED 1: CAUGHT BETWEEN CHOICES

FriesenPress Bookstore

When Jen's mother, Darlene, vanished, the police didn't classify her as a "missing person." Jen's estranged father knew exactly where she was—but he was determined to keep Darlene and his own secrets well hidden.

Only one other person—Jen—knew her father's dark and destructive nature. As a child, she'd experienced his cruelty first-hand when her father tried to break her down, but his ruthlessness had the opposite effect: she blossomed into the type of strong woman he hated.

Jen flourished when she left her parental home, but her need to protect her fragile mother from her father's tyranny kept Jen returning to harm's way. Healthy choices seemed few and far between. With no one willing to help, would Jen's dogged loyalty to her mother cost both women their mental health? Or would Jen finally submit to her father's will and end her desperate search before discovering her mother's true fate?


THE FAMILY SAGA CONTINUES IN 2016
ENTANGLED 2: BETRAYED FROM WITHIN

Dan wasn't his wife, Darlene's, other half. He owned her. His domination took a toll when he treated both her and their only daughter as objects to toy with. Eventually Darlene became so debilitated from a mysterious illness that he had her locked up in a derelict institution. A hellhole from which Darlene wanted to escape.

After carefully crafting his "Mr. Benevolence" persona to impress Darlene's health care team, Dan refused to let their daughter, Jen, know anying—buttressing his actions behind all-powerful privacy legislation. Jen and her mother were at a complete loss as each of Darlene's rights were stripped away from her. When Jen sought answers, each hard-won revelation was worse than the next in a world gone morally askew.

Finally Jen had no choice but to confront her cruel father, the master manipulator. Jen thought a high-stakes court case would prevail and prevent the castastrophic loss of her mother. But then an even deadlier threat arose. Unfortunately, the solution was linked to her own father—a man who was motivated to hurt her the most.
