Right Cross: Shepherd Suspense Series

Previously, I read and reviewed the book A Cross to Kill which I described as "CIA operative turns minister." Author Andrew Huff has continued the story of John Cross and Christine Lewis in two additional books Cross Shadow and Right Cross.

Right Cross begins with main character John Cross in jail, denying his faith, and Christine in shock over the events! The tension and excitement throughout the book continues as we follow John and Christine's adventures. International cybercrime, military bases, and the potential end of the world are all featured in this riveting story. You will be on the edge of your seat wondering if the two main characters will survive! Each one, and particularly John, struggle with how they can faithfully serve God and use the gifts and talents they have been given.

Right Cross is the final installment in this trilogy. While you could read it without having read the others, your understanding and enjoyment of Right Cross will increase if you have read the earlier books particularly as the final book builds on the second. Published by Kregel, this series is free of sex and foul language but not violence due to the CIA connection. Christian themes are included, but they do not overpower the story. This series appeals to both genders as it has enough violence to interest the fellows and just enough romance to keep ladies interested as well. This is definitely not your typical Christian fiction and will appeal to readers high school age and up.

I received a complementary copy of this book from Kregel Publishing. I was not obligated to provide a positive review.
