Review of Duplicity
Posted: 03 Oct 2021, 19:48
[Following is a volunteer review of "Duplicity" by Fin C Gray.]
The McIntyre family of four is much like many other families and their story portrays a true revelation of how life decisions and perceptions can destroy a family. Duplicity by Fin C Gray follows the relationship between father and son, Thomas and Daniel McIntyre. Throughout the story their relationship grows more and more vile as Daniel learns about his father’s dark secrets. Commencing into a series of ruinous decisions that are made rooting from grief, inclination and rage.
I consider the style which this book is written in the most fitting for the story being told. The consistency and use of flashbacks enhance the narrative and creates suspense that had me guessing what was next. I truly admire how this book relates to real life issues such as cancer, terrorism, abuse, homosexuality and death. The way these issues are dealt with by the characters and the decisions they make throughout this book reflects on how poor decisions lead to even more distressing outcomes. I believe this was the message and it was expertly delivered. Mr. Gray utilized the life events of Tom and Daniel to show how one traumatic event can lead to psychological dismay. Tom and Daniel both love and adore Alison McIntyre, mother and wife as she is the grace of their lives. It was extremely heart warming throughout the story to see how much they both cared for her and tragic that they couldn’t see pass their differences to acknowledge that. But essentially this adds to the niche of this book and its harsh reality.
In examining this book and its design I found nothing significantly unappealing, it is well written. This book is clearly professionally edited as my eyes made notice of no errors. I give this book an esteemed 4 out of 4 rating, I dislike nothing about this book and I believe that other readers may even learn from this story given the experiences that Tom and Daniel faced.
The trials of the McIntyre family will captivate the mind of mature readers who are interested in a story that speaks in truth to reality and family issues. As it displays the true nature of families, pleasant in the eyes of an outsider but there’s always looming secrets if you look closer. This book also contains profane language and sensitive topics which may be too jarring for delicate readers. This book will however be suitable for readers with intuitive thinking and interests in psychology.
