Out of love and desperation a good, religious man takes fate into his own hands and commits an unthinkable crime, which pulls at two worlds until they finally collide.

Ashleigh Taylor gives birth to identical baby girls. Hours later, a parent's worst nightmare occurs: one of her daughters is kidnapped. Twisted Webs unravels the mystery of the abduction of Callie's identical twin, Cassie, who is never to be called by her real name.

In the eight traumatic years that follow, tightly woven webs of deception encase two families.

With candor and sensitivity, Darlene Quinn probes the shock and despair, the anger and frustration of parents suddenly missing a child and the long-term effects on a family wrestling with these emotions. Each of the novel's complementary storylines--Paige Toddman's reunion with her mother, Viviana De Mornay's secret, and others--ties to the redemptive theme of motherhood.

Suspense electrifies the pages of every short, fast-paced chapter of each book in the standalone Webs series!

Quinn's first published novel, Sizzling Cold Case, published in January of 2007, was a somewhat unusual collaboration as well as labor of love for her dear friend, Buddy Ebsen. His work-in-progress was a Barnaby Jones novel, which at his widow's request, Quinn was thrilled to complete.

Prior to being an author and speaker, Quinn was a teacher in the public school system, a self-improvement and modeling instructor, a private contractor for the city, department stores (Bullock's/Robinson's), and hospitals.

Darlene has two children, John and Jodie, six wonderful grandchildren, and lives with her husband and greatest supporter, Jack, in Long Beach and Big Bear, California.

She is currently working on the sixth book in her Web Series, Severed Webs.
