Devious

Author: Lisa Jackson

Can you tell I spend a lot of my Texada time reading?

I had coffee with a friend quite a few months ago and, as I was leaving, she asked if I wanted to read this book. I took it but never got around to reading it until I was clearing books and added it to my virtual book shelf.

There are apparently several novels by this author that involve the detective combination of Rick Bentz and Reuben Montoya. I hadn’t read any of them but it didn’t matter as this book was good as a “stand alone”. When nuns are being brutally murdered stories of wrong-doings within the convent cannot be kept secret. With each murder (both within the convent and among the general public) the race to find the killer becomes more intense.

By the end of the book there are still some loose ends, but I expect they will be picked up again in another novel.
