Strong Women: Part II

Ted's wife Ann plays a pivotal role in "Death Is Never Pretty!". As Ted wife, she plays a minor role in "Da Nang Damned!". But in the second novel of the O'Neil-Troutman Adventure series, she comes into her own. She's definitely isn't a meek, mild, little housewife, she's a fighter!

Ted taught Ann how to handle a firearm and as the wife of a sheriff she has occasion to use her weapon. Also, she uses her wits to get Ted, herself, and Special FBI Agent Roger Leblanc out of a tough situation. Her determination and quick thinking propel Ann to the forefront in "Death Is Never Pretty!" She evens embarrasses Ted by "running against him in the election for sheriff!

I think giving Ann a bigger more aggressive role gives depth to the book. I hope you'll agree that Ann deserved the role of a strong woman.
