Stuart Sharp is the author of Searching and Which Hunt, and he is a fellow member of The Hive Mind. He had the following to say about The Many Lives of Inez Wick:
This is a strongly themed little collection of short stories, with the clever idea of taking the alternate life paths of a single character as a way of exploring a variety of mostly environmentally based issues. Inez Wick appears at different stages of her life as everything from eco-terrorist to academic to simple bystander in plotlines that touch on everything from petrol use to water pollution, but which never lose sight of the need for a decent story, and seem as prepared to take on the extremes of environmentalism as humanity's effects on the planet.To read the full review, check out Sharp's post here: Aaron M Wilson: The Many Lives of Inez Wick.
It's a fast read, and never gets too bogged down. Aaron certainly has the knack of plotting things well, and for playing around with different facets of his main character without ever losing the sense of her being a single human being. There's a nice mix of action, development and message too.

From the back of the book:
The red LCD display quickly counts down. There is no time to waste. The polluting, resource-degrading plant is set to explode. Eco-heroine Inez Wick has only minutes to escape.
As she traverses the dark recesses of the dirty plant, she flashes back to a younger self, sixteen. Her father had just died in an oil rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico, and she had just broken up with her boyfriend. She remembers oily ocean water and flames, her footprints in the sand filling with black water. Flames were chasing her. They were jumping from one oily footprint to the next, up the beach after her. Snapping back to the present, she must get out of the plant. The exploits of Inez Wick could not end, just now. Too many others needed to pay.
Praise for Aaron M. Wilson:
"As our world continues its slow crumble, Wilson soldiers on, writing with a clear eye and strong voice. 'The Many Lives of Inez Wick' entertains and, more importantly, gives cause for reflection."
- David Oppegaard, author of The Suicide Collectors & Wormwood, Nevada
"Aaron M. Wilson, with his easy to read prose, writes the kinds of dark short stories that get you caught up in the characters lives, and investing in outcomes. His stories are about now, about current topics crowding the headlines, and he's not afraid to investigate the issues of the day, darkness and all!"
- Alexandra Wolfe, editor, writer, creator of The Hive Mind
