Rebecca Kane asked Tim Johnston:

You have ruined me. Such brilliance-now anything I read going forward will be compared to The Current. You have set the bar high and I thank you for it. Many mysteries fall short of depth and character development. Maybe now others can see a new standard and begin to revolt against the James Patterson trend. ????

Tim Johnston Your reaction to The Current makes me very happy Rebecca! The characters inspire me to write, as opposed to the twists & turns of plot, & it's always gratifying when a reader is moved in ways he or she is typically not with traditional mysteries or thrillers. So thank you for that! I don't know if The Current will inspire any kind of readerly revolt, but perhaps more readers will begin to look for books with more depth & character development. That would be good for ALL of us, I think! Thanks for posting ...& most of all thanks for READING!!
