Former CIA agent turned evangelical pastor John Cross is busy caring for the small community of believers he ministers to in Virginia. Journalist Christine Lewis is busy with the demand for her talents from top news agencies in New York City. Neither has any time left for their relationship, which began eight months before when they paired up to prevent the detonation of a chemical bomb in the nation's capital.
But when Christine hears that her stepbrother has been arrested for murder in Texas, they team up again to discover the truth about the crime. Untangling a web of conspiracy, the couple finds themselves in the center of another dangerous situation-and in trouble far deeper than they expected.
With an assassin on the loose, a trusted colleague acting as a double agent, and unreliable artificial intelligence connected to mercenaries who have Cross on their hit list, these two may not get out of the Lone Star State alive.
My thoughts: Life is never a dull moment for John and Christine as they recover from the excitement of the first novel and try to work out their relationship with having come from very different backgrounds. I loved all the different things that play into their story: both the differences in religion that they had that are slowly getting resolved, as well as their different professions. When Christine's stepbrother is arrested for a murder she is sure he didn't commit, John and Christine are off on another adventure to solve another high stakes mystery. This is an excellent story to pick up! I look forward to reading the next book when it comes out.
I received this book from the publisher. This is my honest review.
