Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

In The Truth Seeker, forensic pathologist Lisa O'Malley has not believed in God for a long time. He let her down as a child, and her professional training only reinforces her belief that Jesus could not have risen from the dead after three days; his body would have already started decomposing. U.S. Marshal Quinn Diamond enlists Lisa's help in investigating a suspicious arson death. At the same time, he questions Lisa's lack of faith in light of her family's beliefs. As they debate the case and the concept of faith, Lisa discovers the identity of the killer too late, and now Quinn has to find him before he kills his next victim Lisa.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another AWESOME Dee Henderson book!, July 29, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: The Truth Seeker (O'Malley #3) (Paperback)

She did it again, another can't-put-down-until-you-finish-it book! Some recommended 'Danger in the Shadows' to me awhile back, and I read and loved it, also The Negotiator, although I have to admit that 'The Guardian' wasn't one of my favorites, although very good. But this book got me back in the series, I actually didn't rush out and buying it, not knowing how it would be, but when I did, it was read within 24 hours. This book is awesome, once again, Ms Henderson gets you off to a great start, and keep you interested and guessing all along the way. I love these books because they have some backbone, they're not like alot of the 'inspirational romance' books that don't even have all the facts straight. I love the mystery, but it's just enough to make you shiver (especially if you're reading it late at night!) but it's not bloody and gory. And I love the theme about Christianity that each book has. Combined with just even romance to keep it going, I love the way she describes the family, it makes you want to be part of it! My favorite parts in this book were - *the* phone call convo that Quinn overhears, and of course the Resurrection scene. I thought that was brought across really good, it was easy to grasp.

I can't wait to read Jack's story!

If you haven't read 'The Truth-Seeker' BUY IT!!!!! But, make sure you read Danger in The Shadows, and the other O'Malley books first! Trust me, you'll feel like part of this family when you get done!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lisa and Quinn...Yummy !, July 9, 2001

This review is from: The Truth Seeker (O'Malley #3) (Paperback)

Let's face it romance has spawned many intersting families but none so special as the O'Malleys. Readers first met Dave in DANGERS IN THE SHADOWS, then again in NEGOGIATOR when he met his very own O'Malley and the family was born. Readers have enjoyed the journey of discovery thru each of the O'Malley stories and with Lisa's story we are sure to have at least three more. But then there are their kids <g>.

THE TRUTH SEEKER is an example of an authors growth, as she creates a story full of suspense but never losing site of the romance of her couple and the link to all the books, their sister with Cancer. Here we have Lisa and Quinn who we meet in THE GUARDIAN, where the sprarks first flew, but nothing like their own story. This one is full of suspense as our couple find their own connection with their spirituality and their love for each other, despite the evil that engulfs them. Also the whole family is there as well so it it like visiting good friends.

What makes Dee Henderson's books unique is although they are Christian based in their concept and delivery they are not preachy. They will appeal to both Christians and non Christians who want classic romantic suspense. But if it is Inspirational Romances you are looking for, then DEE HENDERSON's books are classic Inspirational Romances. You can't call your self a romance reader if you haven't at least one Henderson book on your keeper shelf.

5.0 out of 5 stars Michele, July 19, 2001

Diana Michele Blackburn (Lewisburg, WV United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Truth Seeker (O'Malley #3) (Paperback)

WOW!!! Just when I thought it couldn't get any better. I love this family!!! Lisa and Quinn are very good together and the title of the book has a double meaning. Lisa is not only a truth seeker about people's death, but she's a truth seeker about the Ressurection. My favorite O'Malley is still Jack. I can't wait to read about him and Stephen. I could read about this family until the day that I can't see to read anymore. Miss Henderson, just don't kill off Jennifer. I don't think I could take it.
