Review Quotes

"It's not easy to weave family drama and romance into a high-tension thriller about human trafficking, but Amy Rivers does it well in Ripple Effect, the third novel in the A Legacy of Silence trilogy. Highly recommended." - Pat Stoltey, author of In Defense of Delia

"A gem of a novel with deep connections, all the twists and turns you want, and many you don't expect. As a woman I identify with so many emotions and situations in this novel. I'd want Kate and Tilly in my corner." - Award-winning author, Sonja Dewing

"The importance of this story cannot and should not be overlooked. Amy Rivers has tackled a difficult topic with kindness and compassion. The reality of the main issue is hideous and criminal yet Ms Rivers compels the reader to stay the course. It is through stories such as Ripple Effect humanity is awakened and there can be an end to abuse. I highly recommend this book. I also deliberately left the theme out of the review, so as to allow the reader to follow and learn the truth too often hidden." - Mary Marraccini, Indiereader
