In this heart-pounding suspense novel, the only certainty is that the truth will set her free, even if it shatters her world in the process.
My thoughts
Wow. This was such an emotional and enjoyable ride. Although the subject matter is way different than Christian Fiction that I started off reading in the past, this book was such a great combination of faith and reality of being humans. It at times can become a delicate balance, and the author did a good job showing how hard it can be at times, and being truthful. My favorite part of the book was when one of the characters humanity was acknowledged, but they were also prompted to not go in that direction emotionally. Hopefully the last book will wrap everything up. And I can wait for it.
