“The Plot is an excellently readable thriller. I greatly enjoyed it.”

Robert Olen Butler, Pulitzer Prize winning author of A Good Scent from A Strange Mountain

"...disturbingly relevant...seems almost documentary, not fiction. Good work!"

Robert "Bob" Woodward

The Plot is about the ultimate conspiracy... Lamarche has created a frightening conspiracy and woven it together with the real things we see happening in our government today, all to create a tense, page turning read. The pacing is excellent...and the characters are wonderful.

Cindy Lynn Speer, Midwest Book Reviews and Gotta Write Network

Well plotted, fast paced, and chilling is how I would describe this book. The Plot is Lamarche's first novel, although the author has been a journalist and had close ties to law enforcement and politics for years. Her knowledge shines through in making this book both believable and chilling. It speaks well of her writing ability that she can make something a reader doesn't even want to consider--the ease with which our lives and personal freedoms could be threatened--both plausible and frightening. Set in both Florida and Washington, D.C., The Plot is well worth the time to read, and this reviewer looks forward to more work from this author.
