Join in on a mysterious, confusing and exciting book. A book that will not be like the others.

Daniel, Jenny and Tom all lost a loved one; Alison. A loving mother and wife. Tom and Alison was planning on building a new house, now that she is gone they will have to move in the new house; all without Alison being there. Everything changed since she died, the children changed, Tom changed. Tom had a drinking problem, he just saw it as a time to get out of his mind for a while. But what he didn't know was how his drinking problem would tear his family apart. Daniel hated his father, he hated him so much that he moved to a whole different country, hours away from him. Not once did he regret this decision. He found a 2 bedroom apartment and rented the one bedroom out. He found Waqar; a refugee, they immediately clicked, like they knew each other for years! Waqar made Daniel change, completely. Daniel changed himself to Islamic; he did everything that Waqar had done. Daniel found himself falling in love with Waqar; making him do everything that he had said. Waqar brought Daniel to his town, to complete the "change". After being in the Islamic camp for months, it was time for Waqar to go and complete his mission; to be one with their God. He wanted to be a suicide bomber; and just like Waqar, Daniel went to go be one. Now it was time for Daniel to be one with God. He gets on the train, with the bomb on. He seems nervous; will he complete the task? There are police men are outside the train, do they know? Is he going to press the button?

Fin C Gray has done a fantastic job with editing and making the book Duplicity. This book was not like the others that I have ever read before. It was fun, exciting, dark, mysterious a bit on the horror side; but all at once. I never wanted to continue to read, to get to the end of the book so fast before.

The positive aspect of this book that I mostly enjoyed was the fact that there were no mature scenes, that it was perfect, and how I like my books. These are my kind of books; the genre was exactly my type.

The negative point was I was a bit confused with how the book was set. There were parts were they just skipped the whole point. There was some horrific scenes thrown in here and there. But either than that it was great.

With how good the book was, and how it was laid out. I give this book a rating of 4 out of 4 stars . Because it wasn't like the others. It was slightly different, the genre, the setting. Everything about this book just screamed PERFECT!

There were no errors that I have come across, however there may be one or two somewhere in the book that someone else might come across. I would recommend this book to young adults; as there is minor vulgar and some dark scenes. But in my personal opinion ; I would say this book is for any person who likes a mysterious, horror and dark books. This book was professionally edited, therefore making it a great to perfect book.

This book indeed does sound very exciting and dark! The loss of someone special can drive people to do unthinkable things. Thank you for your detailed review!

This book sounds perfect when dark characters give you a thrill unlike any other. I love that there are no mature scenes. This sounds like my type too. Thanks for the great review!
