The Darkness of Mid Day

On her eighth birthday, Anita witnesses the rape and murder of her mother. Thus begins a series of events that will forever alter her life. In the years following her mother’s death, Anita suffers more indignities and pain. After her seventeenth birthday, and with the aid of a friend, Anita escapes first to Chicago and eventually to California. Twenty-five years later, she returns to Illinois, and by chance encounters the three who murdered her mother. As she remembers that fateful day, and all of the atrocities that have since happened to her, she makes a decision. She will exact her revenge. However, revenge has a way of unleashing unforeseen consequences.

"The Darkness of Mid Day is a volatile story that will test the reader’s ability to acutely discern a sinner from a saint. Let the reader beware…as the characters of this story invade your psyche, you may be left with no hero to champion. Can murder ever be justified? You’ll have to decide, because you may find yourself rooting for a cold-blooded murderer. All these people had it coming, right? Maybe…but when "good" people begin to die, your allegiance will vanish and you will be shocked at the unexpected ending of this dark tale."

Reviewer, Saundra Julian

“If you want to know how three young men get away with rape and murder, read this book. If you want to know how a young girl became a rape victim and was sold into prostitution, read this book. If you want to know how she got out and reaped her revenge, read this book. If you like books all about sex, you'll probably like this book. Joseph Wellman is a good writer and the book is well written;…although I enjoy books about sex, I felt some of Mr. Wellman's sexual scenarios were quite perverse, so be prepared.”
