Deadly Image (edition 2012)

4 STARS
Deadly Image is a well told story. I figured out part of the answer to the mystery early in the story. Still was enjoyable to see how it all turned out.
Lexi Yates has had her 3 yr. old daughter taken. The cops all believe that Lexi must have done something to her daughter. Lexi is a widow her husband a preacher was killed in a car wreck. Lexi has panic attacks and is on medicines for them.
The Sheriff is only looking at her. The daycare said that Lexi picked up her daughter earlier in the day.
Lexi took the day off to finsh her daughters room so she has no one that can vouch for her whereabouts.
FBI agent Ace Valdez is open to look at everything. He asks Lexi lots of questions trying to trip her up and so far she is sticking to the truth. Ace wants Lexi to be innocent. More and More it looks like Lexi is lying about picking up her daughter.
Lexi has only moved to this small town months ago. Her parents have come to help find Anna and help Lexi. They almost lost Lexi when her husband died.
The only thing about the story is falling for someone while your 3 year old has disappeared.

This was a great book. With great Christian values along with a good mystery. Would recommend to others for sure.

When young Anna goes missing, her widowed mother, Lexi, is under suspicion. She is interviewed by FBI agent Ace Valdez. Lexi fights to prove her innocence as well as her attraction for Agent Valdez. This was a quick, light read. I enjoyed the elements of suspense in this story. (A free copy of this ebook was given to me through the LT Member Giveaway.) ( )

This was a short novella that was great to read. I love crime/mystery books, so this was right in my favorite genre. The characters were well developed and you will fall in love with them. The storyline will grab your attention from page one. It blends a little romance with the mystery. While I did not feel that the Christian theme was necessary to the overall story, it did help you to appreciate all that the main characters, Lexi and Ace, had endured to bring them to the place they were supposed to be. Great, quick read. If you are looking for a quick, fast-paced, good read, I suggest you check out this book.I got this book through member giveaways, but my review is my true and honest opinion. Really is a good read. ( )
