Review

I have to say this type of book is not normally my cup of tea. I tend to prefer the book about cops, agents, and people of action. However I could not help, but be pulled in to this story as I read more and more of it. The author is a master story crafter whose style of writing just keeps pulling you deeper and deeper into the story until SUPRISE its the end of the book. I was left feeling like I wanted to seek out more of the book written by this author. I truly enjoyed the storyling and I liked the modern setting of the book. Overall I enjoyed this book and I would recommend it to Christian readers who enjoy stories involving drama and law practices. I was sent this book for free for only my honest and unbiased review.
