Winchester Series, Book 3

The third book in Debra Webb’s Winchester series deals with some really heavy issues. Cecelia Winters has just returned home after being in prison for eight years for killing her father Mason. Her brother Marcus has taken over her father’s church, a group of people who act more like a cult than any worshippers that I have ever heard of. Her sister Sierra seems to still love her, but Cece strongly suspects that Sierra is taking drugs. Her brother Levi, who was supposed to pick her up from prison, is a no-show in most of the book but promises to be a central figure in the next Winchester book coming out in August. I really enjoyed the strong characters in this book. Cece combined a winsome desire to trust others as well as a willful desire to be free of the charges against her. Deacon Ross is an FBI agent who wants to find out what happened to his friend Jack and is planning on nailing Cece to the wall if she had anything to do with it. The action is fast-paced and the plot is compelling and thought-provoking. The ending was unexpected and unpredictable. I did seeing the return of some characters from other favorite books, like Sheriff Colt Tanner. There was also a “cameo” appearance by Rowan Dupont from Ms. Webbs’s series about the undertaker’s daughter. This book can, of course, be read as a stand alone since the story is a totally independent one, with some crossover with characters and the same setting. Readers of romantic suspense will not want to miss this phenomenal new book by Debra Webb!
