I said this about the last Ann Tatlock book that I reviewed, and I’ll say it again. Tatlock has written some excellent books such as All the Way Home and I’ll Watch the Moon. Unfortunately, this isn’t one of them. It’s an average book, and for some authors, it would be a solid effort. However, I know that Tatlock can do much better.

Neil returns to his small home-town after his wife’s sudden death, in search of comfort and healing. Once home, Neil must decide whether to pursue an old girlfriend, and also must confront the mysterious murder that drove him from his home-town many years earlier. While the book wasn’t terrible, it wasn’t of the quality that I’ve come to expect from Tatlock. Tatlock has written several wonderful Christian fiction books such as I’ll Watch the Moon. This book is just average.
