Imposter
Home on summer break following her junior year of college, Haley Jacobs is enjoying some time with her family while working at her mother's bakery. Life is good and all is well... until the doorbell rings one fateful afternoon, heralding a heartbreaking tragedy—a death in the family.
As if that weren't gut-wrenching enough, Linda, Haley's mother, receives a phone call the day after the funeral. The grave of the deceased has been violated. The casket has been unearthed and pried open. It appears as though nothing has been taken off of the departed, but... who would do such a vile thing? Some sick prankster looking to get their kicks? Could it be someone seeking revenge? They may never know the answer.
With the ugliness of that detestable act now behind them, Haley is hopeful that brighter days lie ahead. But everyone knows that tragedies always come in threes. She soon makes an unsettling discovery. A talent belonging to her late loved one is suddenly thrust into mainstream media by a complete stranger. The skill is too unique and its resemblance to this copycat is too uncanny to be coincidental. Who is this charlatan, and how was this ability acquired? Could it be as simple as a case of plagiarism, or is there something much darker and more sinister afoot? Can Haley catch this chameleon and put a stop to this defilement before it occurs again? Find out in Imposter!

God gives each of us talents and dreams. What happens if we don't use our talents to the fullest and fulfill our dreams? Loved this book. It drew me in from the first page and held me until the last word. Christian, searcher, or non-Christian you must read Imposter!

A break from college, Haley Jacobs was relishing her time with her household at the same time employed at her mom's bakery. Haley’s stomach knotted when the police came to the door. She knew it couldn’t be good news. And it wasn’t. A heart-wrenching death in the family occurred, but even worse the coffin was exhumed and broken into. Later, Haley comes across something disturbing…and eerie. The gift of a deceased beloved individual has been impersonated. Haley is shaken up and tries to put a stop to it. I relished this book greatly. It was very well written and the characters were realistic and intriguing. Knitted throughout is a theme of using one’s gifts to glorify God. Author, Nate Lee’s writing utilizes a full range of emotions that are relatable. Well worth picking this one up.

October 10, 2021Bought this from a local Christian author at an indie writer book fair. It's a spiritual suspense with an interesting premise and a clear Gospel message, not an allegory but intentionally thematic - don't waste the gifts you've been given; serve the Lord to the utmost. Will put it in our church library.
