I decided to review the book Lone Witness by Rachel Dylan recently. I do not typically read Mystery/Detective type novels but I decided to try this one. This book is the second in the Atlanta Justice series. I did not read the first book and you do not need to as this book stands alone.
Sophie Dawson is the heroine of the story and the main character. She is an attorney who is involved in prosecuting a case involving a high profile financial institution. She also just happens to be the only witness to a crime involving the mob.
I found the above situation to be a bit unbelievable especially considering the fact that she is also described as being very beautiful and has so much money from her family that she doesn't need to work. Putting all that aside, the book moves along well and is a good summer read.
Rachel Dylan weaves a very suspenseful story with elements of faith interwoven in. She develops her characters fairly well and leaves you guessing as to the outcome of the story until the end. I will probably go and find her first book from this series. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting a quick mystery fix! I think I may even read more books from the genre in the future.
I received this book from Bethany House for my honest review.
