Sins of the Past by Dee Henderson, Dani Pettrey, and Lynette Eason
In this collection of gripping novellas from the top authors of Christian romantic suspense, sins of the past lead to danger in the present. In Henderson’s Missing, a sheriff races to find his mother. In Pettrey’s Shadowed, the parents of the McKenna clan investigate a death. And in Eason’s Blackout, a woman is targeted by a criminal on parole.
Here's my review of this entertaining set of suspenseful novellas:
First, I would like to extend a heartfelt “Thank
you” to Dee Henderson, Dani Pettrey, and Lynette Eason and their publisher for sending me a copy of "Sins of the Past"
to review for them. I am truly grateful for this generosity. I really
appreciate the time, effort and expense it takes to make a reviewer copy
available to me.
“Sins of the Past” by Dee Henderson, Dani Pettrey
and Lynette Eason is an enjoyable anthology of novella from three masters of
Christian Romantic Suspense!
***The book kicks off with “Missing” by Dee
Henderson. John Graham’s mother is
missing. The Police investigation isn’t
turning up much in the pursuit of a normal missing person case. So, when John suggests this may be an
abduction related to his former career in law enforcement in the Chicago area,
the puzzle becomes clearer as the investigation focuses on the Wyoming Police
Chief’s past. I found the story a little
tedious and hard to get into, but I persevered and was able to enjoy it with a
little effort.
**********Tale number two is Dani Pettrey’s “Shadowed”. This prequel to her Alaskan Courage series is
a fast-paced read that thrusts Ben McKenna and Libby together when she is the
only patron who shows up for a whale watching tour in the rain. The trip doesn’t turn out as planned, though,
when the two find the body of a competitive swimmer Libby knows. There was no effort necessary to dive
headfirst into this story! I already
love the kids of these characters! It
was great to read about how the family got started. Now that I’ve read this novella, I want to go
back and read the Alaskan Courage series again.
*****“Blackout” by Lynette Eason is about a woman with a
faulty memory of a robbery of which she was accused. The past has come to attack Macey Adams as
the real culprit hunts her down to tie up loose ends. Flashbacks provide clues about the culprit’s
identity that will tantalize the armchair sleuth. This story is a hang onto your seat thrill
ride!
Overall, I highly recommend adding this novella
collection to your summer reading list.

Two chapters on Mystery, Babylon. She is the great whore. She rides the beast. She is the mother of harlots. She is clothed in purple, scarlet and gold. She reigns over kings of the earth. She is caressed by the world. She is sustained by the dragon (Satan). Chuck reminds us that the church of Thyatira is promised to go through the tribulation. This is how. If you recall the earlier lessons, the church of Thyatira was called the Medieval Church. Mystery, Babylon isn’t the beast, but she rides the beast. There are ten clues in chapter 17 regarding her identity: she’s a prostitute; she has universal influence all over the world; she is seated upon the beast; she is expensively adorned and outwardly attractive; she’s a utensil in God’s service but a counterfeit; she’s a mystery linked with the Babylon of Nimrod; she’s the mother of prostitutes who has spiritual offspring; she’s a persecutor of Christians...
