Vincent R. Alexandria

Dark Secrets Come to Light

'If Walls Could Talk' by Vincent R. Alexandria is an excellent introduction to anyone who never experienced the mystery genre. It draws you in from the very first scene and keeps you wondering. Page after page you want to know who did it and why until the very end.

Throughout this book, you see characters dealing with crime, justice and real life issues. Meet Detective Joe Johnson and his partner, Detective Vernon Brown, as they investigate the murder of an old acquaintance of Detective Johnson. Raymond Tyler, an old crony and former school chum of Detective Johnson. Under suspicious circumstances Raymond Tyler turns up dead and forces Joe to search within himself to look beyond the obstacles their friendship faced to solve the case.

As the story unravels, a scandal and political corruption rears its ugly head leaving you to wonder what happened and why. With so many perspective suspects, the motive behind the crime does not become obvious until the story climaxes. All I can say is "Don't expect the obvious".

Vincent R. Alexandria has caught my attention and opened my eyes to a genre I will definitely look forward to reading more of in the future.
