His Dark Reflection - by Marvellous Michael Anson (Paperback)

About the Book

Love binds a family, murder binds even stronger.

Book Synopsis

LOVE . SECRETS . MURDER

Mote was keeping secrets when she married Jack. So was he.

When the single shot that takes their son's life blows open all they've kept hidden, they have to face their worst nightmares alone.

Their daughter, Ara, remembers one thing from the night her brother was killed. She knows who pulled the trigger.

She knows Mote is sleeping in the same bed as the man who killed her child.

She knows something is off with the man pretending to be her father.

And she will get her revenge.

Review Quotes

His Dark Reflection is laced with sharp twists and surges of emotional intensity. This is not a prognosis on the human or social condition; it's a thriller. And all lovers of such will find themselves drawn to the boldness with which Marve has crafted her first gem.

Gbenga Adesina Poet and Essayist, Joint Winner of the 2016 Brunel International Poetry Prize

Marve was very discursive with her words and that kept me inquisitive to know what was next. She mixes maliciousness and gentility in this poetically written blockbuster tale of conditional love.

Stephanie Chizoba Odili, Author of 'Deafening Silence'

Marve takes the reader through kept secrets, tragedy, and twisted relationships that question everything about what we project often as our authentic selves and who we truly are.

Tope Owolabi, Editor/Writer at eclectictope.com

His Dark Reflection is an example of what I call 'fine writing'. The story, the characters, the juxtaposition, and the little bits of surprise that keep you on edge after each chapter are simply exquisite.

This is a masterpiece of fiction. Its use of time is excellent as the past, the present, and the future are intertwined. It feels too real to be a work of fiction.
