MY REVIEW:
During the stormy aftermath of a hurricane in the small Louisiana bayou town of Eternal Springs, Lincoln Vailes’ first encounter with Jade Laurent was at a women’s shelter where she was being threatened by an irate husband of one of the residents. Little did he realize that he would repeatedly find her at the center of more threats and crime scenes. It quickly became evident that she was being targeted by someone but the only logical suspect seemed to have alibis for each incident. To add to the puzzle, in the usually peaceful town, suddenly two men with gang ties in a northeast city are murdered. How does Jade fit into this picture?
Fear No Evil is a page turner with plenty of drama, action, suspense, and romance. Sensitive subjects such as domestic abuse, gang activities, Alzheimer’s disease, and violence are well handled. Discussions of spiritual issues that include scripture are woven seamlessly into the story without being intrusive. The romance between Lincoln and Jade progresses naturally and reaches the expected conclusion, but only after several intense scenes.
I would highly recommend Fear No Evil as well as the first book of the series, Deliver Us From Evil. I look forward to the release of In The Shadow of Evil and am hoping that Maddox Bishop will be a featured character.
