Rules in Deception

Some people believe that Love is the most common thread connecting mankind. Others feel the hate man displays for one another is the main link. For Albert Hamilton and Chance Morrow, there is something else that dominates their worlds though. Chance is a young man residing in Philadelphia’s Malcolm X housing projects with his girlfriend Mya and their four-year-old daughter Gladys. Albert is a billionaire investor living primarily at his Lakeland New Jersey mansion with his beautiful wife of twenty years Daniella. Both men grew up in the same decrepit high-rises, where they were first engrained with the power of lies. Chance has become a master of deception within his relationship, even breaking Mya’s acceptance his lies down to a science of stages, while Albert has built a fortune by honing his cunningness. Both men seem to be in great control of their respective circumstances; that is until a series of seemingly random events begin to turn their worlds upside down. Albert’s only son is murdered in the very same projects he once called home, nearly twenty years to the day that he lost his father in the same fashion, and in the same place. He becomes hell-bent on removing those buildings from the face of the earth. Meanwhile Chance has a surreal encounter with a woman he’d lusted for from afar. Despite his relationship and better judgment, he can’t help but be drawn to her. Two men, two completely different lifestyles, connected by the lies they tell. Both men know what they want, and both are willing to risk everything to get it. What they don’t know is that their lives and childhood residences are just the beginning of their connection to one another, and the truth is slowly revealed with every lie they uncover. As they struggle to find out who they can really trust and who has truly been the master of deception, the revelations quickly become a matter of life and death. This is another fast-paced, action-packed tale by Ceet The Author, a quick read that will keep you glued to the pages from start to finish. This story will have readers fighting over which character was the true villain, which was the true victim, and who got exactly what they deserved.
