Rising Darkness (Finding Sanctuary)

Romantic Suspense to Keep Readers Guessing Until the Last Page
Sophie Wittenbauer left her strict Mennonite hometown under a cloud of shame and regret. After a rough childhood, her teenage poor choices harmed others, leaving her with no choice but to change her life. Her entry-level writing job at a newspaper puts her in the right place at the right time to overhear office gossip about a prisoner who has information on a decades-old unsolved crime. While the other reporters write off the tip as the ravings of an angry criminal, Sophie can't ignore it because she knows the name of this prisoner from her old life.
Upon learning from the man that one of the other suspects is hiding out in the Missouri town of Sanctuary, she takes on a false identity to investigate and meets the young pastor of a local church--the very man she'd loved as a troubled teenager. As she gets closer to finding the suspect, will the truth of her own past come out before she discovers the identity of the criminal--or the very person she's seeking puts a fatal stop to her investigation?

This book kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time I was reading it. I thought at first I had it figured out as far as who done it, and then that blew up in my face, so the more I read I kept thinking okay this person done it , but no I was wrong again. So this is one of those books that when you find out who did do it, your like "oh wow are you serious?" This is a very good mystery/suspense book. I was not lucky enough to read the first books in this series but it is just as good as a stand alone book. I would recommend this to anyone who loves this genre.
