DISTORTED REALITY
Meet Robert Morgan and Samuel Robbins, best friends since boot camp. They fought side by side in Viet Nam and later served as partners in the prestigious Special Intelligence Forces Division. As a team, they were unbeatable and it was rumored they could read a criminal''s mind.
After college, Robbins joined the Federal Bureau of Investigations and Morgan accepted an offer from the Mercer Island Police Department in Washington State. They went separate ways and, even though they lived in the Seattle area, rarely saw each other.
That is until the day the Mercer Island Bank is robbed. Morgan and Robbins eagerly unite, anxious to recreate the chemistry that made them famous in the Special Forces Unit. But has time distorted memories of their former partnership?
The investigation becomes strained as a woman, Charlene Collingswood, comes between them. Despite Robbins' protests, Morgan stubbornly insists that Charlene, a timid, unattractive woman with rotting teeth, is a brilliant mastermind who has committed the perfect crime. When Morgan arrests Charlene he not only ignites a battle with his best friend but unleashes a media feeding frenzy that is always searching for the next "crime de jour."
Suddenly, Charlene finds herself starring in a reality show, complete with a national audience ready to judge her every movement. Is Charlene the only person not lured by the siren's call of fame?
Join author Patricia McMahon in this fast-paced story about crime and human behavior in a celebrity-obsessed society and ask yourself:
Is it true that you're nobody until somebody puts you on television? How far do you think someone will go for their fifteen minutes of fame? Does the media distort reality and manipulate public opinion to create celebrities at will?
