Despite being novelette length, the characters are well-developed and the plot is intricate enough to keep any reader's attention. How he does it is fascinating, clever, often feels good, and is always very satisfying. Oliver is blind but not weak (yay!) and discovering that everything he'd thought was his world isn't makes him determined to clean his life up and start fresh. Oliver decides to play with them by causing a number of accidents they would never blame on a blind man, each increasingly more devious until he begins to anonymously accuse them of their deceit. It doesn't take long to figure out it is the latter. He decides to continue to pretend he is blind so he can see if this is simply a bored fling or something else. Before he can do this, he finds them in bed together, professing their love. He can’t wait to tell his beloved wife, Vanessa, and best friend, Ray, about his good fortune. In Toni Pike's Desolation Bluff (Chapman Reid Publications 2019), blind romance writer, Oliver Cameron, has the good fortune of miraculously regaining his eyesight.
