with clandestine affairs and illicit secrets…”

PRISONERS OF THE HEART
(320-page hardback/adult fiction)

Prisoners Of The Heart by Dolly KyleSex, drugs, violence and racial prejudice, as well as Vietnam, threaten the lives of family and close friends in this riveting saga that spans the globe and confronts controversial political issues of the times. Clandestine lovers Kelly and Cameron are seen through the eyes of different characters who reveal their own dark secrets that explode in unexpected ways around the world. The unique perspectives exposed in PRISONERS can stand alone or serve as a complement to the psychological pictures drawn in PURPOSES. An insider in a small southern town will glean juicy gossip one whispered tidbit at a time from different neighbors on different days. In the same compelling way, readers of the Heart Trilogy will discover enough enlightening vignettes to understand the complexities lurking beneath the seemingly-innocent surface. It does not matter which neighbor whispers first.

What Readers Say About “Prisoners Of The Heart”:

“Hey, Dolly… Having read your first book, I eagerly awaited the second…. I did expect excitement and the many twists your splendid writing has a way of dangling before the reader, but, Viet Nam? Here I was reading along, comfortably ensconced in small-town Mississippi, when I was whisked away to battle-torn intrigue thousands of miles from home. This novel was quite a trip. Wow! Vicksburg to Vietnam…. Your stuff just gets better and better.” ~ Bobby H.

“Your images of childhood in the ‘50s and 1960s are so vivid it was like reading my own diary…. Prisoners of the Heart is a wonderful read as fiction and is even more interesting as a thinly disguised autobiographical work.” ~ V. I.

“I love your songs! And your stories! You’re a great writer! Don’t ever censor anything about us; you have to write what’s in your heart…. Promise me you’ll never censor anything you might want to write.” ~ Billy Clinton, Governor, 1979
