Dylan Foster's life has settled into a comfortable "spiritual status quo" after her terrifying encounter with Peter Terry two summers ago. However, her comfortable routine is shockingly disrupted when trouble quite literally appears on her doorstep in the form of a bloody ax. Suddenly Dylan is the suspect in a murder investigation and must scramble to find a link, however tenuous, between herself, the killer, and the victim. On the heels of this nauseating discovery, Peter Terry once again invad...more
Even though there are things in this book that don't make sense and are theologically irreverent in certain places--such as calling the Fruits of the Spirit--"all that nonsense"; I still loved it. The writing is very comical, intriguing, and suspenseful, all at once. These are the only novels that I can't put down until I finish them. I wish that Dylan would pray more in her turbulence, though; but I'm glad she didn't tell lies through this whole book like the first one. I do really LOVE her cha...more

It was better than the first. And I liked the first! But the main character, Dylan, can really get on your nerves at times. I read this book in one day! I truly liked it!

just as creepy as the first book!
i'm puzzled though that she's dealing with a demon and yet, doesn't seek out help from clergy. perhaps that's too traditional?

The second of a series (one more to go!). One of my favorite genre: supernatural mystery suspense. I enjoyed it very much. The author has a very good sense of humor :). A very captivating fun read!
I'll do a review for this soon but it's a Christian book that will not only make you shiver, but you'll keep glancing behind you to see if you're really alone. ;)
"Jesus provides patience for His followers during moments like these. I, of course, was too irritated to wait for mine to arrive."
I really liked this book. I had a hard time putting it down. Looking forward to reading more from Melanie Wells.
Even better than the first!
Amazing!! Can hardly wait to read the last book of the series!!
I really like Wells' writing style, and her sense of humor seems similar to mine, so her writing resonates with me. This book is second in a series of three -- I admit I liked the first one better - but this was still an enjoyable read.
This one's a bit more tightly plotted than When the Day of Evil Comes, and there's a lot more signs that Melanie's got an overarching story in mind -- but you can still get by without having read the first book.
Loved this book! It's the second in a series about a psychologist at SMU in Dallas whose life is suddenly turned upside down by a demon. It's hard to put down until you finish! The first book was just as good...

A story unlike anything I have read before. A haunting mysterious spirit orbits the protagonist with the greedy ominous threat of misery. An interesting read with lots of suspense.

Dylan Foster is again swept up into spiritual warfare when, on her birthday, a bloody ax is left on her front porch and her "nemesis" Peter Terry resurfaces.
almost as good as the first, but not quite as sarcastic and I missed all of the asides she used in the first one. The story is good, but she changed her style.
Sequel to "When The Day Of Evil Comes". Same main character and same demon!
I just really like this series. Christian evil suspense.
Another AWESOME read!!!!
