Book Review of My Brother’s New Wife by Matt McGregor
This story is all about revenge. What revenge? You’ll have to read it. It’s a short novel and it’s free. Not available for sale. You must go to Mr. McGregor’s website and download the book. It’s worth the time and effort…
Book Review of Framed by James Scott Bell
This one-hundred-and-thirty-page novella hits all the key themes. Justice, vengeance, and redemption. About three quarters into the story the reader discovers the complex vengeance plot. This is a stand-alone thriller and definitely worth the read. If this was my first James Scott Bell, I’d want to read more of his stuff. It’s not and I will continue to read more of his books…
Book Review of Deadly Silence by Erik Carter
The theme here is mainly justice. There is a hint of redemption. The motives are greed and power, not vengeance. This is a short thriller novella (130 pages) featuring Silence Jones, an assassin working for a secret government agency. I know, cliché, but still fun. This is a prequel to the Silence Jones series…
Book Review of Weapons of Remorse by Chevron Ross
This book features justice and redemption. It’s hard to classify the type of book. Loosely, it could be called a crime story, but it’s much more.

Ross takes an interesting approach and argues in support of citizens taking responsibility for how guns are used in this country rather than legislating it and battling over the second amendment…
Book Review of This Is the Way, the Truth, and the Life: What The Mandalorian and Star Wars Reveal About Jesus, Hope, and Redemption by David Vogel
This fascinating book is all about redemption – true redemption by God. Mr. Vogel compares the journey of Din Djarin, known to most as The Mandalorian, to the Christian journey. It seems like an odd comparison, but Mr. Vogel does a great job, and by the end the comparison makes complete sense…
Book Review of The Book of Answers by Darrow Woods
This not quite a cozy mystery features justice, a form of vengeance, and at least the beginnings of redemption for one of the minor characters. It has some mystery to it and some suspense. The setting and protagonist make it seem like a cozy, but it’s a little raw for a true cozy. It’s labeled as a thriller on Amazon, but I would not call it a thriller. It’s an interesting read and the start of a potentially good series…
