Good Read

The story line is evil at it's worst. When children are involved to satisfy perversion at it's worst it sickens you. The author uses God as a diversion. It was a quick read without the use of profanities, which I appreciate. Conley, the hero, survived too many attacks to be believable.

I recently read a book by this author that is part of the Small Town Danger collection, and loved it. So I decided to give her other books a try. I really enjoyed this one, and there was plenty of suspense to keep me happy

Plenty of action, suspense and evil. Sometimes the dots didn't quite connect, but if you are reading for fast paced enjoyment, this will do it.

Traumatic brain injury

Rarely do I read a book in one day. This book was an exception. I couldn't put it down. I would have liked to know if Jo ever finds where she came from. Other than that the book was riveting!
Each time a character was hit in the head O felt that as the years go on they will display symptoms of TBI.

Interesting story. Jo has been running away from her ex husband for years. Conley a private investigator is employed by her parents to find and protect Jo. Tho this is an interesting story it covers the topic of child abuse, incest and kid trafficking.
