Synopsis:~
With his father in a nursing home and his mother needing support, former Great Smoky Mountains park ranger Lincoln Vailes moves to the bayou town of Eternal Springs, Louisiana, to become a police officer.
Recent college graduate and eager social worker Jade Laurent has also moved there to try and right the wrongs of an abusive past. But someone is running her car off the road and pointing guns in her direction.
As Lincoln investigates her case, he uncovers ties to big-city gang warfare up north that appears to be making its evil way down south.
My take:~
Robin Caroll solidifies her reputation as a writer of stellar romantic suspense with Fear No Evil, an intriguing tale of the inescapable tentacles of gang warfare and those who stand courageously in the face of violence. Displaying her versatility by using different pacing to Deliver Us From Evil, with equally satisfying results, Robin reveals the damage wrought by past trauma experienced by Lincoln and Jade and their resulting life choices. Complex characterisation, palpable attraction and heart pounding action remain hallmarks of Robin’s writing and make Fear No Evil as an essential addition to your bookshelves. Write faster, Robin!

Robin shows a great strength of faith in Jesus to sit with these persons of danger to interview; then to write a sensational book about gangs. An extreme problem in this world today in population of all ages and backgrounds. It is vital that these facts are learned by citizens everywhere. After all that opinion giving…I'd like to enter my name in the giveaway. Thank you for the chance.
Grace & Joy in Christ,
