Review: Nothing is as it seems
Rating: 5 out of 5

Will, an overly-ambitious magazine writer, and his publisher concoct a scheme, frame the writer for a murder he didn't commit and hold back the evidence that will eventually exonerate him.  Will objects to the death penalty, some of his reasons very personal.  This should make his point to the public and maybe win him a Pulitzer Prize.  Brilliant idea, right?On its' face the premise seems farfetched, but as I came to understand Will and his motivations I bought into it.  I've read that any fiction requires the reader to "suspend disbelief" at some point.  I anticipated this would be tough.  Turns out I was wrong.But, as with any book of this type, things are not as they seem.  Some characters have motivations that aren't as they first appear.  When the plan starts falling apart those who seemed allies sometimes aren't.  Your perceived enemies might really be your best friends.  Those who should want the truth uncovered might not, those who don't, maybe do.  Hopefully, in the end, Will can survive, but will the price be too high?
