Delirious by Daniel Palmer Review & Giveaway!

Product Description
One day, Charlie Giles is an up-and-coming electronics superstar. The next, he's a prime homicide suspect as his former employers are picked off one by one. Charlie watches his life unravel as his company and inventions are wrenched from his control, and his family is decimated. With nowhere else to turn, he enlists his schizophrenic brother to uncover the dark family secrets that lie at the heart of the unfolding terror. "Delirious" is a mind-bending story where the line between what is real and what is imagined twists and turns...an addictive literary puzzle that every reader will want to solve.

My Thoughts:
This was an interesting book. Charlie is a man in charge of his life. He has order, power and control of everything around him….or so he thinks. Through a series of events he seems to set in motion himself, his world begins to crumble! He loses his job, begins to question his sanity and suddenly becomes guardian of his brother who is schizophrenic and needs supervision. He has to figure out how or if someone is setting him up before even worse things happen….like someone is killed!
I loved the fact you had no idea if the things happening and changing Charlie’s life were of his own doing or someone setting him up. The author did a wonderful job of keeping you guessing and just when you think you have it all figured out, something happens to completely change your mind! I think my favorite character in the book was actually Charlie’s brother, Joe. He is schizophrenic and possibly the most normal person in the book. The surprises were great, plenty of twists and a whole cast of intriguing characters.
I rate this book a 4/5. A very thought provoking read that will keep you guessing until the last page!
