This is the stories of the O'Malley family, a group of orphans, that decided that they would be their own family. They pick a name, O'Mally and go into professions that will make a better world. Eventually, they all find God thru their youngest sibling, just a great read, suggest you start with the first and read them all in order, I started at the end and kept ordering from the library until I could read them all. Finally bought them and read them again in order. You won't be sorry to read this fantastic series, one of those series that can be read again and again.

THE O'MALLEY CHRONICLES
Vol. 1: The Negotiator, The Guardian and The Truth Seeker

Vol. 2: The Protector, The Healer and The Rescuer
© 2004 Dee Henderson

For those who missed reading the O'Malley novels as individual books, this is an opportunity to meet a special family of individuals who decided as young orphans to become a family.

For those who loved the books, these two volumes are a chance to have and read the series from beginning to end.

The O'Malleys grew up to work in medicine and law enforcement. Their work leads them into mystery/suspense--with just the right amount of romance --that keeps readers turning pages as they embrace the larger-than-life O'Malleys who back each other up at any cost. Each novel leaves the reader with a solved case, a better acquaintance of the family members, a more sure knowledge of the point of faith with which each O'Malley must wrestle and a hunger for just one more glimpse into the unique family Henderson has created.

THE O'MALLEY CHRONICLES are keepers to read over and over again. Don't forget to add my personal favorite, the Prequel, DANGER IN THE SHADOWS.

I read the first two books in this volume for my book club. Some day, I might read the third book but I just couldn't do it now. I could not get in to these books. The writing is fine and the author is very knowledgable on many different subjects. And I liked the spiritual aspect and lack of vulgarity.

However, I found the story too slow for this genre. The characters never seemed real to me and the dialouge doesn't ring true. I had to force myself to continue.

This book was totally captivating and very difficult to put down...a great read! Dee Henderson continues to be a marvelous author who keeps her audience spell bound.

This book was awesome. Even bought another copy for a friend for Christmas. The author is one of the best I haev ever come across.

This was the best find I have ever made in a bargain section. I really enjoy all of Dee Henderson's work and the O'Malley's are a shining example of her talent. She does a great job of building her characters. She also does a wonderful job of making the books exciting and romantic, all while being very clean. Piece of advice, go ahead and purchase Volume 2 because you'll want to read it immediately and stay a part of the O'Malley family.

There a three books in this one and it follows the lives of 7 adults who adopted one another as a family. The stories are easy to follow and it brings you in to what their jobs are. This book follows 3 of the O'Malley's but all seven are in each one. But the main charater is the most important. The are all searching for something and by the end the all find what the are looking for Christ.

I enjoyed this series. All three books were very well written...I couldn't wait to read the next one. Scripturally sound, I found myself re-examining how I interpreted certain passages in the bible. The whole series is excellent!

I love all of Dee Henderson's books, but the O'Malley series stands out as my favorite, probably because they were the first books I read that were written by her. She is a gifted storyteller who obviously loves the Lord. I love characters that have qualities that are heroic, but also are still human. "Danger in the Shadows" is the prequel to this series and it is also a really good book. I am looking forward to reading everything that Ms. Henderson writes and wish her many happy years writing in the future!

Dee Henderson always writes the best books. These three books will really touch you in the characters struggles and triumphs. If you dont already own these books you should go out and by them. They are absolutely some of the best i have ever read.
