CFBA Review - According To Their Deeds
My Thoughts:
I loved the suspense filled story. It definitely sucked me in. However, I was a little put off by the stilted conversational style of the characters. I had a difficult time really caring about any individual in the book. But a good story is a good story, and that's what this was. Even though I felt like I was struggling through sections, I couldn't put the book down. If you can look past what I saw as a quirk and just enjoy the meat of a story, I think you'd enjoy this book also.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Paul Robertson is a computer programming consultant, part-time high-school math and science teacher, and the author of The Heir. He is also a former Christian bookstore owner (for 15 years), who lives with his family in Blacksburg, Virginia.
ABOUT THE BOOK
A Deadly Game of Justice Versus Mercy Charles Beale lives outside the shadow of Washington, D.C. Politics and power matter only when a client crosses the Potomac to visit his Alexandria Rare Books shop.But that all changes when a former client--a man deeply connected in the Justice Department--is found murdered after a break-in gone bad. When Charles reclaims at auction the books he'd once sold, he quickly discovers he's bought more trouble than he could have ever imagined.
Inside one volume are secrets. A collection of sins that, if revealed, could destroy reputations, careers--even lives. Charles soon learns he isn't the only who knows. Going to the police means ruining a multitude of lives. But staying silent puts a target on his shop, his wife--and himself. Charles must decide: Should one mistake really cost you everything?
