Obsession—with a Twist—Adds to Suspense in New Outskirts Novel
Miami, FL, February 06, 2008 --(PR.com)-- A woman with multiple personalities disorder stands accused of a heinous crime in “Mistaken Identity,” the new book from Outskirts Press author Rochelle Marshall.
Roxanne Mitchell is a hardworking mother-of-two; Tiffany Williams is a quick-tempered, obsessive maniac with disruptive and violent tendencies. The problem? Both women exist inside the same body—one that’s on trial for the attempted murder of a world-famous supermodel.
Themes of obsession, lust and mental illness make for an engrossing read in Mistaken Identity: It Wasn’t Me, the new suspense page-turner from Outskirts Press author Rochelle Marshall. The author’s debut novel is now available through her Web site, at www.outskirtspress.com/RochelleMarshall.
Roxanne’s friends and family are shocked when she’s arrested by the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Department for the kidnapping and attempted murder of Faizah Ismay, Hollywood actress and magazine-model staple. What they don’t know is Roxanne suffers from dissociative identity disorder, and her obsessive personality, Tiffany, has been fixated on the beautiful African goddess for years—leaving behind damaging signs of her infatuation. That obsession turns into a motive in the eyes of the authorities when Faizah is reported kidnapped by her fiancé, tennis star Vavrinec Moravec—with whom Roxanne/Tiffany has been having an affair. The discovery of Faizah’s badly beaten body only makes things worse.
Now, Roxanne struggles to prove her innocence, explain her mental condition and seek help for her demons while battling for control over her own destiny.
Narrated by Roxanne, “Mistaken Identity” keeps readers guessing as they’re challenged to come to their own conclusions about the characters’ complicity: Is Roxanne’s account of her recent troubles reliable, or a manipulation by another deranged personality? Through it all, “Mistaken Identity” offers audiences a rare chance to get inside the mind of someone with a serious mental condition, stimulating questions about personal responsibility and illness, and reinforcing the importance of reaching out for help.
With its extraordinary plot twists, crackling dialog and exciting action, Mistaken Identity: It Wasn’t Me will leave readers hungry for more from this writer to watch.
