Excellent, powerful book. The second Charles Martin book I've read this year and I can't say enough good things about them. Strong characters, well developed plot a book of coming of age and facing your past. Excellent, can't wait to read more. Carol

I gave this book full stars, but purely for the story.
The author has an almost poetic way of writing that can be beautiful, but repetitive. Sometimes is it difficult to discern which character is speaking... but I think he might have intended it that way. I came away feeling like the story was missing something, like maybe the author omitted something due to his publishers or ??? There is violence in the book. I feel like the author fixated on this a little too much. There is a feeling about the two protagonists that they could be interchanged, kind of like Fight Club, but in a mild Christian version. all in all, worth reading.

My first read by Charles Martin.
After I read this book I immediately wish-listed all his other works. :)
