This book shows the reality of life that some people have to endure. Yes, sometimes it is not to our tastes, but this is the real world so far, and it is only the truth.This book is a psychological mystery with as many twists and turns as real life can often deal to us. The main character is Billy Ray Hutchins. He is a poor, lonely, uneducated man. He finds this girl, 'Charlene', homeless and he takes pity on her. He treats her well, falls in love with her, and she ends up sharing his bed. (No explicit sex scenes in this book.) One day Billy Ray comes home and Charlene has gone into herself, will barely talk, and Billy Ray does not know what happened. With patience and love, he tries hard to get her back to 'his' Charlene. He succeeds, although she has not fully come back. One day the police comes to take Charlene away in handcuffs for a fire and murder 'she' supposedly committed. His world is rocked. The next day, they bring Charlene back, but take Billy Ray away saying he killed a man. Charlene never says one word. After proving his innocence, new evidence is discovered and they once again take Charlene away.From this point we have our story of the dedication and love Billy Ray has for 'Charlene'. 'His' Charlene could never do this feels. More evidence comes to light and Billy Ray wants answers. If she is guilty, so be it. If she is innocent, he wants his "Charlene' back with him.This is the story of the dedication of one man to finding out the truth. It is the story of people he meets along the way to learning that truth and how they help him. It is a story of the psychological trauma 'Charlene' endured and how Billy Ray has helped her. It is the story of how sometimes police judge a case and the guilt of someone by surface facts and no really deep investigation.It is the story of truth and the psychological effects that truth often brings.I recommend this book highly for the serious thinking people who want to understand life, and yes, I do know this book is fiction, but it deals with life's occurences too
