Author Steve Hirst has written a very penetrating and captivating novel about crime, corruption, eco-terrorism, and the eventual reunion of two Native American children who were separated at birth. “Liberation Front” is set in Southwest Utah where it begins with the murder of a Native American who loves and respects the land upon which he lives. Steve Hirst then takes the reader through an intriguing plot that involves more murder, eco-crimes, culture conflict, and on to an exciting conclusion. Regardless of what anyone may think of environmental crimes, the author skillfully manages to expertly develop his plot and portray his characters in ways that strike a balance between modern-day development and environmental concerns while simultaneously telling an interesting story about human relationships and the triumph of justice. “Liberation Front” is an excellent work that demonstrates the author’s unique ability to bridge the gaps between mystery, intrigue, environmentalism, and Native American lore. If you enjoy stories about crime, punishment, and justice for the guilty as well as the innocent, you should definitely read “Liberation Front.”

A series of tragedies leaves newborn twin girls orphaned. The girls are split up, without any knowledge of the other, and grow up to lead very different lives. Sarah grows up far from her homeland as the only child of a loving family. Her family supports her in every aspect of her life and the young woman eventually becomes an FBI agent. Her sister Essie’s life is filled with trauma and abuse when her adopted mother unknowingly marries the man who killed both Essie’s father and her adoptive mother’s first husband. Still, destiny has a way of making things right again and bringing together those who love each other.

I quite enjoyed Liberation Front. The back story was extremely well thought out and integrated well with the rest of the storyline. The author even carefully tied in all the loose ends by the end of the book without sounding like faked or rushed. However, I think that it was the dialogue that probably impressed me the most about this book. Some of the conversations at the start made me cringe as the feeling of racism was so powerful. This well planned aspect provided an immediate feeling and attitude towards the different characters that kept me hoping for vindication throughout the whole book.
