Wow! This series is something I can't even put into words. It's one of those books that you just need a minute to absorb after reading. I don't know how people waited for the 3rd book after that cliffhanger, but I'm sure glad I don't have to wait. I'm not sure how I will feel after it's over. I feel a hangover coming already..... Thank you NetGalley, Thomas Nelson and Zondervan Fiction Audio for the opportunity to listen and review this wonderful series!

Has anyone ever read a bad Charles Martin book? I sure haven’t. I just finished listening to The Letter Keeper. It was amazing.

Picking up immediately after book one, this second book of the series ratchets up the tension set up in the first book and builds upon the back story, as well as the current timeline of Murphy Shepherd as he continues on his quest to seek and save the lost. This time things get personal with who is lost and he has to dig deep into his training and his faith to find the strength to make what is wrong, right.

This book has a long ramp up to the action packed sequences, but it's the second book of a series so you expect more build up and backstory to fill out what you have learned from book 1 and to set you up for what is to come in book 3. The descriptions of sex trafficking are also more intense in this book which contributes to the tension ratcheting up in the series.

An incredible second book in a triology. If you have not read the first book you can read this one but I would recommend starting at the beginning and go through the whole story of this journey. We are in the world of Murphy Shepard and the beginning starts with a big bang. The reader learns more about Murphy Shepard, his childhood and how things shaped hiim. The writing, the flow and the vivid decsiptions engrosses the reader in the pages and unraveling of each page. Definitely reommend this series which captures so many themes and information. Thanks the the publisher, auhor and Netgalley for the opportunity.
