The Kiss

 

Rating: ★★★★★

The Kiss by Ted Dekker and Erin Healy is an intriguing story of family and friendships and what happens when touched by power.  Shauna woke from being in acoma for 6 months.  She doesn’t remember her boyfriend or anything that happened the night of the accident.  In addition, Shauna is being charged for being durg impaired while driving.  Even though Shauna can’t remember the past 6 months, she knows the accusations are completely out of character.  As she struggles to regain the past, Shauna quickly finds out there are many people who don’t want her to figure it out.  Shauna learns that no one is to be trusted.  Her main way to recover the past is to use other people’s memories.  It is through this fascinating ability to “see” that she is able to discover the plot to destroy her father, who is running for President.

            The Kiss is a page turner – a fascinating read unlike any other I have read.  The book delves into deep issues of medical ethics; both on a corporate level and a personal level.  While some of the things that happened in the book probably are science fiction, it does ask the reader to think seriously through his or her own preconceptions.  Enjoy reading – you might stay up all night to finish!
