Review by Diana Hockley
Well-written and superbly paced, there are no histrionics in this plot, just dogged determination on the part of the realistic and likeable main characters. I don’t want to give any spoilers, so I will just say that book is a must read and a keeper!

Review by Diana Hockley
When Deputy Sheriff of Lawrenceville, Lupine County, Jessica McGuire
heads out for a morning jog the last thing she expects to find as she
runs past the cemetery is the empty grave of a long-dead infant. Who on
earth would want to steal what is left of the body? The condescending
attitude of her boss, Captain Boone, who dismisses the discovery as not
being important enough for him to mount an investigation infuriates
Jessica. The Pastor, David Tanner reports the theft of the cross from
his church and her neighbor’s report of
Marilyn Meredith dredges deep for this story of evil and her research
is impeccable. Whether one believes in the devil’s work or not, the
reader’s heart can only beat faster as Jessica and David follow what
leads they can to discover who is behind an increasingly horrific series
of crimes. The author skilfully weaves miasma into every page, as
danger edges closer to Jessica and her son, Jonathon.Well-written and superbly paced, there are no histrionics in this plot, just dogged determination on the part of the realistic and likeable main characters. I don’t want to give any spoilers, so I will just say that book is a must read and a keeper!
