Since the beginning of his writing career, Dave Rice has attempted to include an underlying theme of the continuing struggle between good and evil within the novels basic storyline. This is obvious in his first novel with this underlying theme in Recovery the Hard Way. A story that describes the lifestyle of those souls that are addicted to drugs and the internal struggle they must endure to recover from addiction. This theme of good over evil is even more apparent in his second novel Justice for All which chronicles a transformation into an alternative lifestyle, and the moral implications that the central character must endure because of his career as a leader in the New World Church and the transformation. These and other literary works written by Dave Rice such as; Just a Chick on the Side, and The Women of Conjure, all have plots that contain an element of confl ict between good and evil. However, not one of his novels currently in publication goes to the extent of good challenging evil as that contained in his latest effort, Altered Pathways, which is based on evolutionary changes that have created what is known as a Serial Killer. Explore the ultimate confrontation of evil over good in the latest mystery novel by Dave Rice, Altered Pathways. It is a compelling psychological mystery that not only contains murder, but also contains the drama that is brought out in those that are preyed upon by this demon.
