Conspiracy of
Silence by Ronie Kendig
Tox, a special ops soldier, is dead and buried by his
country, or so everyone he loves thinks.
However, his country needs him now, and he is manipulated back into
action by a deadly plague, which has attacked his niece, the president’s
daughter. To quell the plague, he
travels across several continents tracking the organization that has
orchestrated the world disaster. The
order of the Arrow and Flame proves to have strongholds and eyes wherever Tox
and his team turn. They are poised to
release the deadly virus and only Tox and his team can stop them . . . or can
they?
This author was new to me.
Her fast-paced writing and complex characters and plot kept me reading. I
was fascinated by Kasey, the expert on deception. I’m not sure if such a skill really exists,
but it would make sense if it did and would certainly be necessary in situations
like this. Tox’s “conscience,” Chiji,
was a very interesting character. I
would have loved to know more about his story.
Ram and his sister also merited a second look, too. Although this book is the first in the
series, I almost felt I was entering the story mid-stream, which I think indicates
strong, well-drawn characters.
The plot moved quickly and sometimes I struggled to keep
up. I dared not put the book down for
too long or I would forget where the characters were and what they were
doing.
This book was not overtly “Christian,” but I would recommend
it due to the lack of vulgar
language and improprieties. I like to
recommend books with a great storyline and characters that live out their faith
but that aren’t preachy. This book fills
the bill with plenty of action, detailed characters, a secret organization and
lots of plot twists. I recommend it for
those who like suspense and thrillers.
Good job, Ronie Kendig. I
received this book in exchange for my honest review.
