REVIEWS
  
"Benson hits a home run in this debut thriller that grabs readers from the first page. Fans of Joel C. Rosenberg will thrill to the twisty, fast-paced action and suspense."
Library Journal, April 15, 2013 

"I loved
The Hidden Son. I couldn't put it down. I'm not a fiction reader typically, but I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was completely believable yet suspenseful. I can't wait for Dianna T. Benson's next release."
Brandon Gayle, Haz-Mat Specialist and firefighter.

Ellechor Publishing House sent a complimentary copy of The Hidden Son to Book Reviewer Lisa Johnson, and this is her review: "Did you ever watch a movie or theatre performance after which instead of just clapping, words like 'bravo' and 'encore' should be shouted? Be prepared to do both with The Hidden Son. What drew me to this novel was the cover and the title that I figured was a purposeful play on words. The novel grabs a hold from the first chapter till the last. The characters, scenes, action, and faith-based novel will keep you turning pages and losing track of time. The plot was rich as well as entertaining. The suspense kept building as I prepared myself with what I saw would be a breakthrough or victory for the characters only to have the author throw a curve ball and get me thinking about the plot's direction all over again. Dont miss this one. My rating is 5+ stars." Book reviewer, Lisa Johnson. This review in its entirety is posted on Amazon.

"Even though The Hidden Son is Mrs. Benson's debut novel, it reads as though she had written dozens before it. Each page leaves you wanting more. The characters are well-written and I found myself thinking of them as if they were real people. I definitely recommend The Hidden Son to anyone who loves a good action novel." Cassie Snow, Rocky Mountain Reviews

"Once you start Dianna T. Benson's The Hidden Son, don't plan on sleeping. Packed with action, this thriller is a gripping edge-of-your-seat read!" Alice J. Wisler, award-winning author of five novels, including Rain Song and How Sweet It Is.

"Get ready to discover your new favorite author of riveting thrillers! You'll love the characters, lose yourself in the action-packed plots, and be desperate for Dianna T. Benson's next book as soon as you finish the first!" Diane Reeves, non-fiction author and editor, Regnery Publishing.

"I started reading The Hidden Son and looked up three hours later, having hardly put it down, stumped by the mystery and intrigued by the complicated characters." Book Reviewer Faith Farrell.

"I'm amazed a debut author wrote such an entralling, engrossing and exciting book." Book Reviewer Vera Godley. This review in its entirety is posted on GoodReads: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/596655499
