BookSneeze Book Review: Hand of Fate

A controversial  radio talk show host is murdered in his studio.  Fears arise as the city goes on alert for a possible terrorist attack.

In the much anticipated sequel to Liz Wiehl and April Henry’s book Face of  Betrayal, the Triple Threat team of  Federal Prosecutor Allison Pierce, FBI Special Agent Nicole Hodges, and TV crime reporter Cassidy Shaw once again join forces to solve the murder of Jim Fate in Hand of Fate.

As these ladies whose bond is held together by a friendship from high school and ultimate chocolate desserts work to solve the crime they each encounter their own struggles and hurdles to overcome.

I found Hand of Fate to be quick read.  I read nearly half the book in a sitting one evening.  The stories of these women and the mystery at hand solidly held my attention.  I related to my husband that I liked that it was neutral politically.  Leaning neither to far to the right or left.  Each side was able to have their say. Christian themes are through out but not over powering or in your face.  It was insightful to read how each character dealt with the obstacle/trial in their life with whether they were a Christian or not.  Especially know even as Christians our response isn’t necessarily how in a “perfect” book world they might.

This is the first book I’ve read by Ms. Wiehl and look forward to going back and reading Face of Betrayal now.
