“Fragments of Fear” by Carrie Stuart Parks

MY REVIEW:
I enjoyed this clean Christian fiction drama and suspense!! There were lots of twists and turns and it was somewhat complicated with all the different “bad guys”, but I like that it kept be guessing.

I liked the main character Tavish and learning about her art style/drawings and her journey throughout the book to try to find peace despite all of the traumatic tragic unsettling events that continued to happen to her. I loved reading about the dog Marley and her added character and comfort to Tavish throughout the story.

I wish there had of been more romance between Tavish and Sawyer, but overall I really enjoyed this steady paced suspense! I received a copy of this book complimentary for blog and social media review. All opinions are my own.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Title: Fragments of Fear
Author: Carrie Stuart Parks
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Release Date: July 23, 2019
Genre: Inspirational Suspense/Thriller

Stolen art. A New Mexico archaeological dig. An abandoned dog. And a secret that’s worth killing for.

Evelyn McTavish’s world came crashing down with the suicide of her fiancé. As she struggles to put her life back together and make a living from her art, she receives a call that her dog is about to be destroyed at the pound. Except she doesn’t own a dog. The shelter is adamant that the microchip embedded in the canine with her name and address makes it hers.

Evelyn recognizes the dog as one owned by archaeologist John Coyote because she was commissioned to draw the two of them. The simple solution is to return the dog to his owner—but she arrives only to discover John’s murdered body.

As Evelyn herself becomes a target, she crosses paths with undercover FBI agent Sawyer Price. The more he gets to know her, the more personally invested he becomes in keeping her safe. Together, they’re desperate to find the links between so many disparate pieces.

And the clock is ticking.

“Over the years, Carrie has mastered forensic art, fine art, and her own brand of offbeat humor. As a novelist she combines these skills with another: puzzle writing––scattering puzzle pieces all over her fictional universe and then dropping them into place in twists, surprises, revelations, and side-pocket whimsy until the big picture emerges, never too soon, always on the brink of disaster.” —Frank Peretti
