Danny’s rollercoaster life takes him through poverty, riches, oppression, sin and redemption in one thrilling action/adventure novel.

Washington Township, NJ – A young student in Burma escapes a tyrannical regime and seeks refuge in the United States in the thrilling new novel,The Illusion.

The Illusion is the heart-touching story of a young man who escapes from tyranny to in Burma to build a fortune in business in the United States. But when he finds himself mired in a cesspool of his own greed, things come full circle and he becomes a fugitive running from law.

Danny, a young student in Burma, escapes the tyranny of a military regime to obtain refuge in the United Sates. In his adopted new country, he launches a construction company, diligently building his corporation into a powerful, multimillion-dollar corporation.

When Danny’s dangerous negligence results in tragedy, he takes flight and eventually lands in prison. There – enduring taunts as a “baby-killer” – his anger builds to a boiling point, and he does things he cannot take back. It’s only after the death of his mother that Danny finally begins to take stock; the reckoning launches a journey of redemption and a moving search for the good in life.

My review;

"The Illusion", is the story of a young greedy man who came to the United States and wanted to be rich immediately. He began working for a family member but soon learned how to manipulate the system to get whatever he wanted. Danny has gone to far when he uses very poor items in his construction business and it finally comes to  head when schoolchildren are killed because of his lies and cheating. He finally begins to wake up in prison. The question is though, is he seriously going to change his life?  I give this book a 4/5.  I was given this book for the purpose of a review and all opinions are my own.
