Wow! The author, Williams H. Coles, brilliantly captivated the audience in the first few pages. The book seems incredibly fascinating and makes me feel as if watching Darwin's story play out in real life. I can not wait to see what Darwin's rich cousin the famous football player, Luther, is like. Foreshadowing indicates that Luther is "trashy" and has no intent to be a part of Darwin's life.
The protagonist, Darwin, is left without parents from a young age. He moves in with his strange, but loving, aunt. Unfortunately, she loses a leg and is sent to an assisted living facility and can no longer care for Darwin. The sample ends with Darwin leaving Pittsburg to go live at the home of a cousin that he has only met a few times. Darwin is figuring how to get to school and get his money along with getting comfortable with other living in the house.

As for the storyline, you have divulged just enough to catch our interests. The story sounds really inspirational and I would definitely like to give this book a try.

Having recently enjoyed The Surgeon’s Wife, I am interested to see another BOTD from William H. Coles. I like that the characters and setting within Guardian of Deceit are very different compared with the previous book. I also like the fact that reading the sample does not indicate any ‘obvious’ direction the story, and Darwin, will head in, except that he has obstacles to overcome. How he will do that, and even IF he will do that successfully, are questions for the reader that require answers. I look forward to discovering more of the Guardian Of Deceit.

I get a sense that money is more than a problem and getting his hands on Darwin’s trust will be an issue.
Darwin is treated like second rate help from the moment he arrives. The contrast of his room to the rest of the mansion is a slap in the face. Indeed it seems the old lady on the plane was right.
