    " I felt the book was two different story lines forced together. I enjoyed both stories individually, but just didn't think they had much connection with each other. "

    " One of the better Beverly Lewis books, as the story is faster-paced and has great suspense. This is much more of a mystery than her other novels. "

    " I thought I would try another book by Beverly Lewis. I didn't like this one as well as the first. I felt the story dragged a bit and I never really loved the characters. The story is placed among the Amish people, but they don't play a large part in this novel. Overall, I was left wanting. "

    " This book reads like an Amish version of "The Net". You remember that movie with Sandra Bullock that kept you on the edge of your seat and near panic? Well, this is that same feeling. The first page will have you hooked. Definitely a page turner! "

    " I read this for book club. I'm not really a fan of over the top Christian literature. This one certainly fell in that genre. It was an OK story though and fine if you look past all the cheesy preaching. "

    " This wasn't Ms Lewis' usually Amish story but it was a good mystery. I re-affirmed my belief that GOOD can win in the end. Like the old days when the cowboy with the white hat was the good guy. Good reading. "
