My take on this book:
Beth Dawson and Sara Jones-Tayson have created a highly successful computer software company called SaBe in the tiny town of Seagrove Village. It was widely known that their company often helped the government. When a terrorist attack takes place during a wedding the first person on the scene is Detective Jeff Meyers and he can't help but wonder if the attack doesn't have something to do with a former case. When Sara's husband is kidnapped, the main suspect is Beth. Who is behind all this? Can they figure it out before it's to late?
There was plenty of action in this book from the beginning pages. The plot moves along at a super charged pace with plenty of twists and turns that kept me on my toes.I thought the characters seemed real and quite believable.While there were Christian themes woven into the story but it was well done and didn't seem overwhelming. Even though this book is the third in the series it isn't necessary to read the first two books because the author provides enough background information so that this story can easily stand alone.
Overall a fast paced suspense, mystery novel with a romance woven in, filled with several twists and turns along the way. There is also a reading guide included that would make this book perfect for group reads.
A complimentary copy of this book was provided by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
Thanks for the review. I just got this one and was wondering if I needed to read book 2 first. (I read book 1 a few years back.) Anyway, I always enjoy your take on the books.
ReplyDeleteHey Beckie, thanks for dropping by, I actually read book one in the series but missed book two or vice versa, and had no problems with this one. It really grabbed me from the first few pages, and was a good change of pace from the historical and Amish fiction that I have been reading. Have a fantastic week.
