What
Kyle spoke about his book, Under Current Conditions, a suspenseful psychological thriller which takes place locally and includes some actual events from the news that people will be familiar with. The book was available for pick up the book ahead of time (available at Amazon, Borders, Barnes and Noble, independent booksellers, and Darcy's website) so that attendees could participate in the discussion. The book was also available for purchase and signing at the event. There were light refreshments (hors d'oeuvres, sweets, coffee and tea) and a cash bar.
This is nothing short of a GREAT READ. Darcy grabs your attention and doesn't let it go until you have turned the last page. The plot includes FBI stings, murder and kidnapping, but these elements play a supporting role to the main theme of the story, which is conveyed in an engaging and entertaining style. Under Current Conditions is a Master Class in Life's Lessons.. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
