Shadows of Things to Come (Flashes of Time) by Mishael Austin WittyMay 4th 2013ISBN: 9781475146936ASIN: B007IJ4822355 pages/294kbAmazonShadows of Things to Come (FLASHES OF TIME)I totally forgot to read a synopsis before beginning this book. The title threw me as to what the storyline was about, I thought it was horror.Shadow of Things to Come is a story of young love between Megan and Keith. It is a love gone bad , and ends with  Megan's rejection of Keith's marriage proposal . Tony , from a distance, watches this scene take place, he swoops in and comforts Megan. He loves Megan from the moment he spots her, and will do anything to keep her. Tony tells Megan a tale of his mother's death, that ends with his dad,  in jail for her murder.  Robert, Tony's brother, is a very strong influence on Tony. Is he a protector, or something much more sinister? Megan is a Christian and lives the life of one, much to the amusement of her roommate Liz. Liz is street smart , and repeatedly warns Megan that something is not right with Tony . And Liz is right, Megan's life is in danger , but, by whom? A whodunit with a twist, story looks into abusive relationships. I was uncomfortable with the preachy tone of the story, and I think some readers will be as well. Having said that, I really liked how the book ends, or does it?I was given this book for an honest review. I liked the book very much, it did have some weak moments ,  still ,the mystery carries the book through.Reviewed by debblovescoding@yahoo.com
