Author: Terri Blackstock
Breaker’s Reef is the fourth and final book in the Cape Refuge Series. I have read all of the books in these series except for the very first one. Without having read any of the series, you can easily enjoy any of the books, but having that extra history with the characters does make it special. This final book opens with the classic Terri Blackstock heart-wrenching bang! Once you cast your eyes on the gruesome details of the crime, you might as well make yourself comfortable. I have to force myself not to skim down the page!
When the police find the body of a teenager, the investigation starts off shakily because an overzealous rookie tampers with the crime scene. It does not take a long for several folks to become suspects including the Chief of Police himself. In the midst of the criminal investigation, another story involving the ex-con Sheila Caruso slowly begins to connect with the crime.
Sheila has finally found a job as a typist for an eccentric author. While transcribing a tape, she stumbles across a chapter that is very similar to the crime scene. Little does Sheila know this discovery will be minor to the one that has arrived in Cape Refuge looking for her. Eighteen years ago, Sheila gave up a baby girl for adoption. The young woman has arrived in town seeking to meet her birth mother, but they never meet. Another body has been found and soon Sheila’s daughter Sadie turns up missing. With both of her daughters in danger, Sheila’s faith is tested as she struggles with her past and the consequences.
Terri Blackstock weaves a tale of mystery and suspense that examines how destructive sin can be in our lives. Underneath the fast-paced storyline is a gentle reminder of redemption and God’s grace. This is an awesome series so I encourage you to grab book one and have fun.
