From the publisher:
[quote]For three years, Kate Marshall has been grieving the loss of her husband and their four-year-old son in a boating accident. But when she spots a familiar-looking child on an escalator in the mall, she is convinced it is the son she thought was dead. With police skeptical of her story, she turns to private investigator Connor Sullivan. The former Secret Service agent is dubious but agrees to investigate. Digging into the case he discovers that the incident may have been no accident at all. But if Kate’s son is alive, someone is intent on keeping him hidden–and may be willing to go to lethal lengths to protect a sinister secret.
As Irene Hannon’s many fans have come to expect, Deceived is filled with complex characters, unexpected twists, and a riveting plot line that accelerates to an explosive finish.[/quote]
My Review:
I love Irene Hannon. Her books are clean and hold tons of mystery. Her stories make me glad I like to read.
This story is no different. It has you gripped from the beginning. I like how she brings the story into round circle.
The characters are easy to follow. In this story, the widow has been in mourning for three years when she recognizes a term said by a little boy on a escalator in a mall. The author then creates a story that is based on a lot of far out circumstances but is awesome to follow.
It was not a book that was based on faith or had any scriptural meaning that I saw.
This makes a perfect book for cuddling next to a warm fire and drinking hot chocolate if you enjoy a fast mysterious read.
I would only recommend this mystery for mature eyes due to some of the circumstances involving death.
