Greater Love

Suspicious Minds by Sherri Kukla is a compelling contemporary mystery. It is the first book in A Dry Brook Novel series which promises to be good.

I was engaged with the story from the start. I met up with familiar faces from The Moto Mysteries series which immediately put me on familiar ground.

We see the importance of trusting God. “I’m trusting God to see me through this.” God sees the end from the beginning. He can be trusted even when life makes little sense. It makes no sense without God.

God is the God who calms the raging storm within us. We can receive His peace even when all around us in in turmoil.

Prayer is important. “Pray. He felt it more than heard it.” When God tells us to pray, we must pray and not question Him. There may be people who depend on our prayers in their situation.

We see characters practicing sacrificial love in order to protect. This is a selfless love which contrasts with the selfish actions of others.

Good can come out of bad situations. A little kindness goes a long way.

I enjoyed Suspicious Minds. It was an intriguing read that I read in just one sitting.

I received a free copy from the author. A favourable review was not required. All opinions are my own.
