Wow, Evan Delaney's life goes from one tension filled drama to the next. From a funeral service to a religious revival, a book signing, a near kidnapping, getting arrested, a wasp attack, facing down a rabid dog, and that was just the first 150 pages. This book was one wild ride.

Liked this a lot more than I thought I would. Lots of humor and a crazy cult.

If you love suspense, you need to go out immediately and find a book by Meg Gardiner. Meg, you’ve been hidden in the UK for too long! I really enjoyed The Dirty Secrets Club, but this one was even better. At one point, Evan’s sister-in-law tries to illegally take back custody of her son while Evan is locked in the back of a police car, and I thought I was going to literally jump out of my seat! And that was just the beginning! This story of a cult gone crazy really makes you think about what we as a society can control, and what we can’t, especially as Evan tries to get help from the police, who don’t know whom to believe. And I never expected the final twist. I think I especially liked the quiet times in the story, where you got a real sense of Evan, Jesse, and Luke’s normal lives. So often you only see the characters in a suspense novel in the midst of chaos. I will definitely be reading (or listening to) more of these, likely sooner rather than later.
