The
Palindrome Conspiracy
By David
Toy
This
book introduces the reader to Hannah Sabino and Otto Belzer who
attempt to stop Ang Ahas, a leader of a cartel of Philippine and
American politicians from controlling the world's money supply.
During their adventures, Hannah hooks back up with her friend, Dempsey,
who is not exactly who she claims she is. Hannah faces losing the
things that are dear to her, including her parents.
The
main plot of stopping Ang Ahas is well developed, while the romance
between Hannah and Otto plays a great second fiddle. The characterizations
of Hannah and Otto as they fight for their survival are well done
and their romance gets a well-deserved, unrushed chance to develop.
In today's
world, the frightening plot is a realistic, containing a twist that
not many readers should be able to decipher.
