Day of Reckoning

By Valerie Massey Goree

Description:

International Retrieval Organization Agent Lela Ortiz is assigned the kidnapping case of businessman, Chuck Davenport. When her boss allows Jay Vashon, Chuck’s brother-in-law to assist, Lela accepts the help with reservations, especially when Jay prays at the most inopportune times.

Jay would do anything to help bring Chuck home, even work with feisty Agent Ortiz. As Jay and Lela decipher clues Chuck sends to his son with special needs, they are forced to work in close proximity.

Can Jay break through the barrier Lela has constructed around her heart? Will Lela be able to overcome her distrust of men and God?

And Chuck? Can the pair locate him before the ransom deadline?

Book Takeaway:

No matter what baggage we bring to the cross, we will be forgiven when we ask for Gods’ grace. Even when we make decisions without God, He will still accept us, and help us deal with the consequences of those life-decisions.

Why the author wrote this book:

I introduced agent Lela in Weep in the Night. She had a bit part in that novel, but I felt compelled to write her story. Why did her colleagues trust her? Why did they call her feisty? Why did she shy away from relationships?
