about this book: When my son was in the Peace Corps, I went to visit him in the remote mountains of Albania. The people were welcoming and warm, but I noticed that almost everyone carried a gun. What I found when I inquired further was that Albania has a rich history that includes an ancient code of justice. What I found fascinating was that their ancient law stressed both extreme kindness and extreme punishment. When I wrote Eyewitness I was as inspired by this ancient law as I am by our modern justice system. Being a writer, I love huge, dramatic confrontation and what could be more dramatic than a collision of long held beliefs and modern thought? When you put characters you care about in the middle of this clash of right and wrong the story can't help but be suspenseful. This is one of my favorite books in The Witness Series because it is so intricate and takes place in two different worlds.
