Contempt & Trust is a wonderful companion for a rainy Saturday afternoon. Marlene Cheng’s easy and engaging style transported me to Tijay’s World from the very first page. I finished the book cover to cover in one sitting!”

“Though the plot kept me turning pages eager to see what was going to happen next, I was drawn to the relationship of the Madame and her friend - I was intrigued with what connected them and how those bonds thrived. Honestly, I was drawn into the web of all the relationships in this wonderful story!”

— Diana Germain, fan, Maple Ridge, Canada

“Set in war-torn Sudan, Contempt & Trust is a story of two young doctors Tijay and Aida drawn to their fathers' country to do "some good.” Marlene has very touchingly depicted their abiding friendship through their tribulations. It is a lovely uplifting read. Shalta Varma, fan, Powell River, B.C.”

“With her slow, lazy prowess at painting scenes with words, Cheng draws readers into lives unexpectedly entwined not just by life circumstances, but by mysticism and fate.”
