Dee Henderson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: April 30, 2004

Dee Henderson wraps up her Christy Award-winning Uncommon Heroes series with a riveting story from the home front. When someone snatches his cousin's wife and son, FBI agent Luke Falcon hunts the kidnapper. He has never worked a case involving family, and it's tempting to let his hardened exterior weaken, given the circumstances. But he has to be strong if he's going to bring them home. When the ransom delivery doesn't go down as planned and the bodies start piling up, so does Luke's frustration. He fears that innocent people may not survive this crisis, and neither will his relationship with Caroline Lane . But her rock-solid faith proves to be a far better shelter in the storm than all his law enforcement training and experience

5.0 out of 5 stars packed thriller with heart, June 30, 2004

(#1 Hall OF FAME REVIEWER)    (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: True Courage (Uncommon Heroes, Book 4) (Paperback)

FBI agent Luke Falcon met Caroline at the wedding of his cousin Mark to her sister Sharon. They are immediately attracted to one another and start dating; but he won't let her get beyond a certain point. After a year of the same situation, Caroline is ready to call it quits but before she has a chance to talk to her reluctant beau, Sharon and Mark and their son Benjamin disappear. As the hours pass, they are not heard from so Luke calls in the FBI treating it like a kidnapping case.

Mark is found in his car, injured and semi conscious. Bloodhounds find Ben hiding in the nearby woods. Sharon is held for several million dollar ransom but something goes wrong and the exchange is never made. While they are negotiating for another exchange, Caroline trades herself for her sister and Luke pulls out all the stops save the woman he now realizes he loves beyond measure.

TRUE COURAGE is a fantastic romantic suspense novel about a family whose faith and love for one another gives them the courage to get the job done. None of the characters that are injured and kidnapped fall to pieces but find the strength within themselves to keep on fighting for the freedom of the ones they love. One of the kidnappers is Luke's old enemy but the mastermind is someone who knows Mark and his family, their finances, their movements and their priorities. Finding out the identity of that person is will end the nightmare the family has been living under for over a week. Dee Henderson is a wonderful writer who pens an action packed thriller with heart.

This story line is one of reality and suspence but at the same time does not let go of spiritualy and romance. I couldn't put the book down. Let's face it. There are a whole lot of romance/suspence Christian book writers out there but none like Dee Henderson.... She can out do them all!
