Currently Condemned (All Things New Book 15)

Jeffrey Wooff
0/5 ( ratings)
In the world of the Baxters of Altrey, life and love can get drenched in lies and secrets. Betrayal can be as commonplace as kisses, and schemes of grave import and treachery as ordinary as a Sunday morning sermon.
Marvin Baxter had once been a Master of the Game of Manipulation, playing his opponents like fiddles, earning their respect even as he vanquished them. Yet Marvin will have to face his own day of reckoning in the form of disease that weakens his body and threatens his very existence, causing him to ponder what his life has been about all along, and setting in motion consequences far-reaching for those in his orbit.
Cecil, his son, and scion of the powerful and famous Baxter name, will now find himself challenged again with dark thoughts and twisted fantasies ... and anger toward those he holds responsible for the demolition of his safely ordered existence.
Eudora, Marvin's wife, had successfully clawed and connived her way up the social ladder to the very brink of the Altrey Society Pinnacle, the effervescent Queen to Marvin's forceful King. Now she is in the role of care-giver, one she did not expect to play, and is ill-equipped for.
Ever-searching for self-promotion, he'll find opportunity in Marvin's depleted condition. Yet his reliance upon those who are as amoral as him can serve to make him far more vulnerable than he would like.
She had finally escaped the clutches of her controlling step-daughter and embraced a security she had never known. But she now must also make decisions that will move her forward into freedom ... or slide her back into a moral wilderness that offers little chance of breaking away.
In the world of the Baxters, the divine and the depraved co-mingle in uneasy mixture, producing both noble dreams and deadly nightmares.
It is the world of the twentieth century.
It is the world of All Things New.
