My Thoughts


This is Kathy Roy Johnson's debut novel and I thought it was very well written. You can tell she knew a lot about the subject matter. The characters were good. Simone is a very in charge type of woman. She doesn't let much deter her and she stands up to those who try to. There is a lot in this small little book that will keep you engaged throughout the whole thing. There is so much going on and all of it is non-stop! 

Overall I thought this was a good story! There is faith woven into the whole plot which is always nice to read. I recommend this if you enjoy suspense type stories!

My Rating: 4 Stars/Really Liked it!
