It
happened again – I read another great Christian mystery! I received a copy of THE RELUCTANT DETECTIVE
by Martha Ockley from Lion Fiction via Kregel.
It is part of the Faith Morgan mystery series, the first in the series
actually. Martha Ockley has a smooth way
of creating pictures with her imagination and words. It is almost like watching television, and
this book would make a great television series.
I
did read the second book in the series and loved it, so I was eager to dive
into this one. It did not, of course,
disappoint. At all. Faith is still an adorable, lovable character
who will have the reader rooting for her.
I’m
the type of person who always wants to guess who committed the crime – a murder
in this case – but then gets caught up in the story or is just too mind-tangled
to figure it out. This was another of
those books. I was baffled, in a good
way, right up until the end. I’m sure
other readers will be more adept at uncovering the truth.
I
highly recommend this book to fans of Christian literature and mysteries. This has a sound plot and believable
characters. Never once did I shake my
head in disbelief.
