Taken In Author:Beverly Coyle In Taken In we meet Malcolm and Susan Robb, a contemporary couple with purposeful work, outreach and children. After an accidental meeting between their son, Matt, and Angela Bert, a runaway and sometimes prostitute, and her sidekick, Cooper Reese, the Robbs find Cooper at their door raving about matters that seem to have nothing to do with them... more ». In moments, all of their lives are utterly changed. Not only is there a murder, but Malcolm must face that his son will never follow in his footsteps, that his daughter, despite her youth, is more capable than he is, and that his marriage contains many more secrets than he could possibly have imagined. Self-revelation, a mysterious neighbor, and strange new alliances knit Coyle's vivid characters together in a forced reappraisal of normalcy and insanity, generosity and self-interest. Taken In is certain to be hailed as another "perfect, dazzling" (Los Angeles Times) and "brilliant" (The New York Times Book Review) work from Beverly Coyle, who New York Newsday calls "quirky and unpredictable, knowing yet forgiving, [and] always wise".« less
