What GoodReads Readers are Saying

“The characters are richly drawn and the story moves at a fast pace with danger at every turn of the page. The romance was complex and the villains were crafty.” ~ Paula Schreckhise 

“Oh. My. Goodness. I finished this book in tears. Not sad tears, but tears because the ending is just so beautiful. I’m not sure what else to say; I’m still wrapped up in the story.” ~ Charity

“Caudill isn’t afraid to explore the murkier depths of sin, justice, and mercy, crafting a mystery that is as thought-provoking as it is gripping.” ~ DevotedToHope
