I can usually tell by the first chapter of a book how well I'm going to like it. On occasion I will come across a book that grabs me from the very first page. The Traitor's Pawn was just such a book. From the very first page I was hooked. The way it started had me at the edge of my seat and I knew immediately I was in for a page turning, suspense and action filled book.
Jack Shannon has returned to Corpus Christi,Texas and is focused on finding the man who has been selling encrypted government secrets to the Chinese through online chat rooms. When a senator is shot during a hunting trip and the woman he was with is abducted, Jack agrees to join the search--especially when he discovers that the kidnapping victim is Aubrey Grayson, a woman he was once in love with.
As the search continues, it becomes clear the senator may not have been the intended victim and Aubrey may be connected to the other case Jack is supposed to be working on. Can Jack untangle the knots before it's too late? And when he learns the truth, will it be too painful to get past?
I really enjoyed the romance between Jack and Aubrey. It had the right amount of romance sprinkled throughout the book that kept you rooting for their relationship, but not over the top mushy. This is also a good stand alone novel. No worries about getting to the end of the book and be left hanging or waiting for the next book.
If you are a fan of Christian suspense I would highly recommend this book. Just be prepared to get nothing else done until you reach the last page. It's a great, clean Christian suspense novel.
Thanks to Revell Reads for providing me with this book in exchange for my honest review.
