REVIEW
Not Your Ordinary Adventure Story
Reviewed by Alvin M. Stenzel originally for Amazon
For a crime/adventure story, Lacroix is an interesting
twist. Ditch the big city back alleys and car chases and enter an
entirely different environment. A castle, forests, lakes and blissful
peace, but hiding terrible secrets. A young, single mom, nearly alone on
what was supposed to be a deserted castle estate? Not how it turns out!
Terrible dangers lie around every corner. I was fascinated enough to read
it in three days. It may seem to start out slowly, but it's only the
initial ride to the top of the roller coaster. Hang on!
About Xavier Vidal: Born in Barcelona, attended medical school, became a medical doctor, awarded a Fulbright scholarship, and has two Masters degrees from Howard University.

About the Reviewer
Alvin Stenzel is a resident of The Villages in Florida. He is author of The Crystal Pond: A
Young Girl’s Journey Through Imagination (available on Amazon for
Kindle and in paperback). Mr. Stenzel is
author of other books, short stories, magazine articles and poems. The first section of The Crystal Pond was written many years ago as a Christmas present for an eleven-year-old young lady who lived down the street from me. For her next birthday, it only made sense to write a sequel. It quickly became clear that there would be five parts. The real beauty of the story is that the young lady eventually became my step-daughter. She is now a mother of her own with two beautiful daughters. I am a Grandpa!
