My Review:
This is a very satisfying read. Liam thinks that Maggie is her twin sister. So what, exactly, has her twin gotten into that could get Maggie killed? 
Liam is a hero in every way, and I loved Maggie. While this is the second book in the series, it held up on its own just fine. I like the suspense, the twists, faith, fast pace and amazing ending to this book. Holding onto your faith is a strong theme and one we all need to be reminded of time to time. This was an excellent read.

More from Dana

I just love Christmas, don’t you? In our area we have a lovely holiday train. It’s an old steam type train which is decked out in lights for festive holiday tours. I was so thrilled that this cover features just such a train. Of course, in the novel the train is the scene of hair raising danger! Maggie, our heroine in this novel, is a cook. She serves up some mouth watering dishes (when she’s not dodging a killer.) I thought perhaps you might enjoy a Mentink holiday family recipe! God bless you as we enter this holiday season!
