The Trouble with Telling - Paperback

by Bickford Penn (Author)

Weary of whodunits?

Looking for something daringly different?

How about a quirky mystery/romance with a heady premise?

To wit, discovering the root of one's subconscious desires. No murders to solve here, but a socially challenged Army Specialist's struggles with his uncontrollable impulses could lead to death by embarrassment. Meanwhile, a geeky but gutsy

first-year college student gets even with her devious boss by undermining his illicit activities.

Two tales of woe and intrigue have been woven into one.

The Trouble with Telling is a coming-of-age story about perceptions, misperceptions, and the pain of personal growth. The truth is out there...maybe.

The Trouble with Telling is a hilariously sharp, unexpectedly heartfelt exploration of awkward impulses, tangled truths, and the wonderfully weird chaos of growing up, equal parts cringe and catharsis! I couldn't help but root for both characters.
