The town of Sanctuary is controlled by a fanatical preacher and a vicious rancher. But then a hard-drinking, gun-toting preacher named Mordecai arrives-and everything changes.

"One of my favorites by Nora Roberts. Definately keeps you guessing who until the very end. The character twists in this one were actually really well thought out and suprising. This book is what got my hooked on Nora Roberts."
— Celia (5 out of 5 stars)
" Real good "who-done-it" listened to it via audiobook... Many a sleepless hour as too hard to put down "
— Patricia, 2/19/2014" I wasn't super intrigued by this book, but I really wanted to find out who the stalker was. Turned out good in the end! "
— Aynsley, 2/16/2014" I could not put this book down. it is quite amazing! "
— Hwendt, 2/15/2014" Trash, but good trash. I really enjoyed it. "
— Maria, 2/14/2014" LOVED IT!!!!! From Start to Finish it keeps you hooked. "
— Melonie, 2/8/2014" An older NR title that's been sitting on my TBR pile for way too long. This was her next title after Montana Sky, and nearly as good, although the killer in this one was more than a bit too obvious too early in the book. "
— Meghan, 1/30/2014" Ok a lot of the story in this book was pretty good however the ending just felt really rushed to me and left me feeling let down after all the hype during the novel. "
— Andrea, 1/28/2014" I almost quit listening as I really got tired of the whining Jo Ellen and her sister. Stuck with it and did find it enjoyable. "
— Wendy, 1/24/2014" I love Nora Roberts but this one was just a little too intense (sick) on the violence and the character development was lacking. No emotional buildup, just "boom!" instantly "in love". Also I figured out "whodunnit" early early on; it was just blatantly obvious.Sorry I can't recommend this one. "
— Kathy, 1/10/2014" I can't believe this book has such a low average rating. This was the first Nora Roberts novel I read and I loved it. "
— Misskittykilpatrick, 12/17/2013" A LITTLE SLOW ON THE STORY LINE AND THEN OVER TOO FAST AT THE END. JO ELLEN HATAWAY TERRORIZED BY THE SON OF THE PERSON WHO KILLED HER MOTHER TWENTY YEARS AGO AND WAS NOW AFTER HER ON THE VACATION ISLAND OF DESIRE. "
— JANET, 12/10/2013" Boring, slow moving, unlikeable characters, unpleasant to read. You can figure out the killer really fast. "
— Barbara, 10/25/2013" I read a lot of bad reviews in this book but I really liked it. Her characters weren't as well described and enjoyable as in other novels but were still like able. Not one of my top 10 but not a waste of time. "
— Rexine, 12/31/2012" Another mindless, quick and easy read by Nora Roberts. Enjoyable enough but I will quickly forget what I have read. Was surprised to find out who the killer was - didn't see it coming at all! "
— Jodi, 7/5/2012" Another "cant put it down" book! "
— Helen, 5/11/2012" Started out sounding like "Rebecca" but soon I was jumping all over the place trying to figure out who dunnit. For some reason, I found this a little dark and couldn't read it at night. It wasn't as light a read as I had expected. "
— Teresa, 5/6/2012" The best Nora book ever. "
— Shannon, 12/4/2011" Not a lot of action. I was sort of bored with it-but the end had a good twist. "
— Jenelle, 7/14/2011" I found this book very very creepy it actually squicked me out and is the only Nora book I've never reread it made me feel weird "
— Vjsilva, 6/19/2011" This book was really good!! I would recommend it to anyone who loves a good romance/mystery novel. "
— Mallory, 5/30/2011" Love, mystery and excitement in one book. "
— TeriC, 5/11/2010" love the romance:) "
— V., 3/26/2010" a fun read. Pretty intense mystery "
— Shannon, 5/22/2009" A haunting tale of great power. "
