Sins Of The Father by Angela Benson RAW Rating: 4.5 (out of 5) Abraham Martin has been a busy man. He married Saralyn because she was pregnant with their son, Isaac. They give Isaac anything he wants, when he wants it, so he is somewhat spoiled and thinks the world revolves around him. But, Abraham has a big secret. He actually got another woman, Leah, pregnant at the same time and he didn't stop seeing her just because he was married. He had two children, Michael and Deborah. He is a very wealthy man, but he has ignored his illegitimate children for years and they grew up in poverty because he broke off his relationship with Leah and his wife would send a very small amount of child support. His conscience starts bothering him and he decides he needs to recognize them for who they are, but his wife isn't having it. When Abraham is in the hospital and Leah and her children come to see him, she is very insulting. The fight for the family business is on; Abraham wants to share with Deborah and Michael, but Saralyn and Isaac want no part of his other family. Michael wants revenge for all the years they suffered. Who will come out on top in this argument? Will the siblings ever be able to admit they really are related? What sort of horrors will go down before they do? Angela Benson has written a novel of forgiveness and redemption filled with suspense and tragedy. The characters are developed to a degree that makes them very understandable. It is easy to see why Leah was quiet all those years as she and her children struggled to survive and why Abraham kept his mouth shut and let Saralyn send them a mere pittance to survive on. The drama never stops. It is well worth reading. Reviewed by alice Holman, RAWSISTAZ.com Alice Holman is an avid reader, a writer and a community activist.
