The Destroying of Harry Blyne

Rating:
Summary: Intriguing but Flawed
Review: A very simple premise drives this intriguing little puzzler. A mediocre thriller writer living a pleasant little life with wife and daughter sees his life unravel in a matter of days as what seems at first to be a hoax turns out to be a conspiracy by persons unknown to drive him to suicide. Once he sinks to the lowest depths he taps into his heroic literary character in order to seek out and strike back against his tormentors. The book has two main weaknesses: the first is that his wife and friends seem awfully willing to believe the lies that are told about him, and second, the motive for his persecution isn't very believable.
