CUSTOMER REVIEW:

"This is a well-crafted novel in which all the elements of a great mystery are woven together as if ingredients to an exquisite dessert.

The author's research and/or knowledge on various subjects, along with the developed characters, suspense, and splashes of humor keep this novel percolating from start to finish. In addition to the norm, I found the "tenderness" of the main character appealing, especially in the end.

Definitely a good, enjoyable read with many twists. Looking forward to reading his next novel."

Fractured Persona

Richard Fornek is shocked to discover he has acquired not only a different identity, but also a new body after recovering from a coma in a North Carolina hospital. Although he recalls every detail of his life as Richard Fornek—his job back on the West Coast as a structural engineer, and his stormy thirteen-year marriage to Karen—his appearance is that of local warehouse worker Dan Curtis. To avoid being admitted into a psychiatric hospital, Fornek has no choice but to live as Curtis; including accepting his marriage to Curtis’s spunky wife, Elizabeth. Before long, Fornek finds himself beginning to fall for Elizabeth, but the accusation of the murder of Curtis’s former lover throws a wrench in the blossoming relationship. Fighting to prove his innocence, he attempts to plead his case to his only confidante, a Baptist minister. If all fails, he will be faced with the death penalty and losing the woman he has grown to love. Steeped in mystery, suspense, and a touch of humor, Fractured Persona by Harry James Krebs is guaranteed to keep readers guessing from the first page to the last.

MORE REVIEWS:

"Good mystery! The details help tie the characters together and the "sharp left" is a real mind twister. Loved the idea of being able to start your life over."

"I don't read many whodunnits, but I went cover to cover with it in 4 hours. Readers might find the aplomb with which Fornek accepts his existential pickle unbelievable, but won't really care after hitting the middle of this boiler."
