Filled with Mystery and Suspense





The Stars Shine Bright
by Sibella Giorello

The author has dramatically written the mystery and suspense of an unusual undercover FBI assignment - but then goes so much deeper as the main characters personal problems and despair are expertly interwoven into the story and the plot. I loved it!

I am lover of books in a series so I was excited to learn that this is the 5th book in a series. Unfortunately I did not have time to read the other books before this review was posted but I was still able to thoroughly enjoy this book without reading the others in the series. I loved the book and the author so much that I soon want to go back and read the other four books. I think there is probably some background character development that would make the book even more enjoyable to read in sequence.

Although I really love this book, there is one drawback - it is listed as "Christian Suspense". I have a pretty big problem with that listing description because I did not see any Christian writing in this book. There are no inspiring moments where a character suddenly sees and understands that it is God at work. There are no dramatic moments where characters come to know Jesus and their lives are changed. There are no story lines that develop the spiritual growth of a character. If you are expecting any of this type of Christian writing then this book will disappoint you, but if you are wanting a well written suspense you will stay up late with this one and will run out and get the other four books as soon as possible!

Disclosure: Litfuse Publicity Group provided me with a complimentary copy of this book as part of their blog tours program.
