‘Silent Wife’ leaves readers bored, frustrated
Posted on 05 February 2014.
Normally, I’m a mystery novel fanatic. Picking up A.S.A Harrison’s “The Silent Wife” seemed like a good choice to me at the time. I was wrong. Harrison is trying far, far too hard here to be the next Gillian Flynn. This book is no “Gone Girl” and the characters are rather flat and not enticing […]

Gov. Chris Christie was sworn in for a second term last Tuesday, but not without the looming shadow of his wrongdoings in the not so distant past.
