Woman of Shadow by
Carrie Stuart Parks
Darby Graham is investigating some suspicious activity at
primitive but posh Mule Shoe Dude Ranch near Yellowstone National Park. She is a recent graduate of Clan Firinn, a
program that helps law enforcement officers recover from PTSD. As events escalate, Darby is confronted with
several murders. She will need to face
her PTSD triggers to survive. Help is
available only by traveling through the wilderness to contact the outside world. Will Darby be able to survive the wilderness
to bring back help?
True to Parks’ past novels, this book has lots of plot
twists and suspense. It has interesting characters
whose pasts were revealed layer by layer.
I especially liked finding out Darby’s history and the events that
caused her PTSD.
The setting near
Yellowstone and the frequent earthquakes were also an interesting feature. Not too many books that I have read have been
set there and I learned something about the geology of the region.
In short, this book is not your typical Christian
suspense. If you are a fan of Christian
fiction, this one will stand out from the rest.
These opinions are my own and I am grateful to the publisher for a free
copy of this book in exchange for my review.
