Karin | 9378 comments I hadn't known this was Christian when I took this out, but it's Catholic; I hadn't realized Bell used to tea. Ty, our protagonist, isn't religious when the book starts out, though. He's a lawyer still grieving the death of his fiancée when someone finds him and tells him her death wasn't an accident.

My three stars is an average rating. Bell does somethings well (eg dialogue) but the protagonist is TSTL and the phone calls with "meet me" happen too often. It's also more violent than I like; I'm not interested in reading books where the protagonist is constantly being beaten, etc.

However, the average rating for this book is over 4 stars, so clearly I'm an outlier.
