Having become addicted to T.R. Ragan's Lizzy Gardner series and when it ended, I quickly latched on to this trilogy. On one hand, I am sorry to see it end because I truly came to love Faith McMann and her friends and family. On the other hand, it is a relief to see it end in a satisfying way because these books with their dark subject matter are tough at times to read. They deal with the human trafficking of children and with a seemingly ordinary woman--Faith, McMann school teacher who ends up taking on the traffickers that killed her husband, left her for the dead and took her children. I say *seemingly ordinary* because Faith becomes a bad ass, tapping resources within herself and others, furious and ready to do anything to bring her children home.

This is the third and final book and I don't want to say much detail about it due to spoilers. Read the series--the books are great and definitely read them in order. The characters will work their way into your heart and you root for them. I wasn't exactly sure how Ragan would end this one (I am still getting over how the Lizzy Gardner series ended) but I ended up happy with how things turned out--not perfect for everyone--life isn't, but exciting, touching, and ultimately satisfying and hopeful. I had tears several times throughout the book and had to fight myself not to go to the end and check if it was going to be OK--always a good sign.

I would give this 4.5 stars overall--I really enjoyed it, despite the high blood pressure and excess emotions it wrought. I look forward to seeing what the author's next book will hold.

I received an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an impartial review.

I'll admit it; I've been tough on Ragan's Faith McCann series. The children are way too brave and observant, and they speak like they are adults. Yet, even with this criticism, I keep coming back to this series.

Wrath is the third volume in this series concerning murder, child sex-trafficking, and, ironically, the power of love. It picks up right after the second book without any break so it is essential to have read the other two books, Furious and Outrage. In many ways I think the editor could have done some major cutting and turned these three books into one. In this book, only Lara is still a captive but her brother, Hudson, so recently rescued, has more opportunities to prove his courage.

Faith's determination to find her children, against some rather incredible odds, establishes her relationship with a wide variety of characters. The characters from the previous books like Beast and Rage have some damage to their psyches but they literally put their lives on the line to help Faith. Wrath, however, has some new characters join the fight, and they are truly amazing. They don't have a personal stake in this nightmare, but they do care about children and the world around them. Their bravery might be unrealistic but their presence made an incredible difference to the outcome. They also provide strength in numbers and demonstrate the importance of thoughtful reporting when you just know something is wrong.

Ragan's series could easily be dismissed as just a trite mystery but the topic of child sex-trafficking needs to be addressed via many methods in order to bring it into the consciousness of ordinary citizens. Read this series not for its literary quality but for its eyeopening approach to an ugly truth.

Fantastic ending to the Faith McMann trilogy. Wrath was nail-biting suspense from start to finish. I couldn't put this book down. So much emotion when reading this book. Mostly tears, but it was so worth it!

*ARC provided by Netgalley for an honest review.

This is the 3rd and final book featuring Faith McMann. To quickly summarize what this series is about... Faith's husband is murdered in their home, she is left for dead, and her two young children are taken by a human trafficking ring.

Faith survives, but then she gets angry. She wants her children back and will do anything and everything to get them back. And she wants the men responsible.

The quest for her kids take her into the very bowels of not only human trafficking, but sex trafficking as well. She meets some people along the way who join in her search. Beast and Rage have their own story, but they jump wholeheartedly into this search and to putting an end to all those who participate ... even if it points to the higher echelon of government.

I don't want there to be any spoilers, so I will only say this is a terrific series. The three books need to be read in order to fully understand and grasp what this particular mother goes through.

This is an excellent series ... I really hate to see it end.

5 Stars for the Series. 5 Stars for the book.

Many thanks to the author / Thomas & Mercer / Netgalley for the digital copy of WRATH. Opinions expressed here are unbiased and entirely my own.

Just sorry it had to end

T. R. Ragan has done it again! What an outstanding thriller and great ending to this trilogy. I was pulled in immediately from the first chapter of the first book, Furious, and the second, Outrage, kept me wrapped up in the story so that for several months now I've been anxiously awaiting this final installment. I can't just write a review about this book as the whole trilogy is all wrapped up together in my mind.

The intensity of the story line with such a deep topic as human trafficking was heartbreaking and yet angering at the same time. How can people be so cruel as to kidnap children to sell them off? Faith's determination to find her children over the course of these three books was nothing short of amazing all while trying not to think of the fact that her husband was murdered right in front of her. Throughout these novels we see a simple wife, mother and teacher turn into this fierce woman with only one goal...to find her children and bring them home. She will stop at nothing to accomplish this goal. She meets some great people along the way that help her and as with anything in life there are good times and bad. We see the sadness and pain these other characters bring to the story with their own stories that are shared. For such a thriller it was a pleasant ending to find myself in tears.

Thank you NetGalley, Thomas & Mercer and of course T.R. Ragan for this opportunity.

Have read all the Faith McMann books and thoroughly enjoyed them. Hard reading in parts,but the characters are great and the story realistic.

I love TR Ragan and this series was finished up with a bang. All of the characters were wrapped up and tied neatly with a bow. A great ending to a fantastic series.

Great final part to the series, really enjoyed it. Had to keep reading to see if she got her daughter back, I couldn't put it down. This book sucked me in and kept me engaged right throughout the book. Very good 5 out of 5.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of Wrath by T.R. Ragan that I read and reviewed.
What can I say? T.R. Ragan did it again. This trilogy was a hit from the start and Wrath, the final book, was a exciting climax to a must read trilogy.
I don't want to give anything away but I loved how Ragan ended this trilogy. I must admit I had the tissues out and the tears were flowing when I finished this book and that was not what I am use to when I read these kind of books but I will admit I loved this book and this series and I would not change anything about it.
This series focuses around Faith McMann whose children are taken by human traffickers whole stole her son and daughter and murdered her husband. With the help of her friends Beast and Rage who she met in anger management class she decided to take it upon herself to take on the traffickers and bring her children home. In this third book, with Rage dying of brain cancer and her son Hudson home she is running out of time to bring home her daughter. This book focuses on the final confrontation between Faith and the men who killed her husband and took her children. Will she get her daughter back and if she does at what cost because these men are not going to go down easily and they want Faith and her family dead because she is trying to take down a billion dollar business that a lot powerful men are involved in.
Wrath is a book that has is all: Murder, suspense, powerful people doing bad things, love, redemption and just about anything else you can think of. This book took me on a roller coaster of emotions and I loved it. The end of this series was everything I wanted it to be and much more!
Wrath is getting five out of five stars.

I was captivated by this thrilling and fast-paced suspenseful book. The author’s writing is strong, her characters are well-developed. The suspense was breathtaking and kept me guessing until the end.This is the conclusion to this series and this book is just as great as the rest in this series! Will they find Lara in time to save her? Starting from the first page till the last this book answered this question in a very quick page turning read! Highly recommend this series and any book by Theresa Ragan. Look forward to her next book to see what next thrilling book or series she has up her sleeve!

This was a good basic book that completed the trilogy. I would recommend this book to all who enjoyed the first two books of the trilogy. However, if you have not read the first two books this book would be difficult to completely follow.

Wrath is the third book in the Faith McMann trilogy written by author T. R. Ragan. I'm sorry to see this series end. Excellent storyline and characters. I highly recommend it. Thanks to NetGalley and Thomas and Mercer for the advance copy.
