COST OF LIFE has many twists and turns as we watch the impact decisions have on the characters' lives. This story line is a new concept on good versus bad and the purpose behind actions are not always what they appear.

Joshua Corin has a hit with COST OF LIFE a great story with flawed characters that leave you wondering just what you would do.
