consistently drawn characterization with a grasp of some current law-enforcement problems. Mix this with sharply aware interpersonal interactions and enough realistic science and psychology, and one can see why this is a book not to be put down . This book joins my entire keeper shelf of Sharon Sala/Dinah McCall books, all of which are equally enthralling.

This is one of the BEST books that I have ever read! I started to read Dinah McCall when I found out that she was also one of my Favorite authors, Sharon Sala.

Chase The Moon is about a man who out for the blood of the man who murdered his brother. Jake and John Baretta were identical twins, so once John was killed, Jake was able to take his place without the people knowing. (They were investigators in a huge weaon and drug bust).

This is one of the best books that I ever read and it is also one of the most moving!

This is absolutely the first review I have ever written so I'm afraid it's not going to be very well done. I have read hundreds of other reviews and they influence me very much in whether I purchase a book or not. I really don't know why this book has never left my mind completely, but it passes through my head ever so often. I guess it touched my heart in a special way. I love the books by Dinah McCall aka Sharon Sala, and have read many of them. If you purchase this book you will not be disappointed and I am sure it will stay in you heart as it has mine. It's been several years since I read it the first time. Enjoy!

I was a little disappointed with this book. I had just finished reading Sweet Baby by Sharon Sala (who is also Dinah McCall) and loved it so much that I decided I had to read another. This book didn't hold my interest like Sweet Baby did. I couldn't figure out the attraction to these two people and there was no spark between Gracie and Jake. I wouldn't go so far as to say it was bad, but just not as good as I expected.

Elijah Moon is a deeply religious person fed up with the corruption of
the modern world. He establishes New Zion in the Kentucky Hills and brings
together his family and friends who share his belief. He hopes that they
could build a utopia on Earth. However, even Eden had a shake. In New
Zion the reptile wears the form of Elijah's oldest son Brady, who has
turned his father's dream into a gun running militia movement. Brady also
longs for his beautiful sister Gracie, who shows an interest in the town's
newcomer Jake Crockett. Jealous by the perceived threat, Brady kills Jake.

Brady doesn't know that Jake Crockett is really Johnny Baretta, an ATF
agent working undercover to see if he could ferret out the community's
illicit activities. Nor does he know that the man has an identical twin
brother, Jake, who has sworn to bring down his sibling's killer. Since
Johnny's death was never made public, Jake returns to New Zion posing as
his brother. He tells Elijah that somebody in the community tried to kill
him. Unable to believe that anyone in his family could do such a thing,
Elijah allows him to stay and discover for himself that no killer lurks in
the shadows. It doesn't take long to suspect Brady, but an unexpected
complication arrives when Jake falls in love with Gracie.

CHASE THE MOON by Dinah McCall (aka Sharon Sala) is a rousing, action
packed drama that also delivers a believable and inspiring romance. The
couple, who have so many obstacles to overcome in order to make a good life
for themselves, is an inspiration to the good and pious people of the world
who believe that love can defeat the powers of darkness.

It's a bit slow going at first, but after the first 20 pages, i just couldn't put it down.

The armed militia thing is a bit out of the blue, though. Wonder if this sort of underground anti-gov groups really exist.

I love a man who cries but this hero was too much even for me. He was supposed to be a tough undercover ATF agent but as soon as he went under to find his twin brother's killer and met the heroine, he went all soft in the head!

This is my first book by Dinah McCall, but it will not be my last. Sharon Sala is also a favorite of mine and I just found out tonight that Dinah McCall and Sharon Sala are one and the same.
