Book Description

"The Tangled Web" is an enthralling and compelling novel, set in contemporary South Dakota, filled with a cast of dynamic, vibrant characters who display great depths of love, caring, compassion and faith. Set against the back drop of joyous wedding plans, some deeply guarded secrets and the reactions to them threaten to unravel many lives along the way.

Renie Smith weaves her own intricate web as she dramatically illustrates how both withholding the truth and making assumptions about what it might be, can be equally as destructive to those we hold most dear. Journey along with the Taylors and Sanfords. Share their hopes and dreams. Feel their joys and sorrows. Agonize with them through seasons of helplessness, despair and anguish. Rejoice as their regrets give way to triumphs!
