Unputdownable! That’s how I would describe Trace of Doubt by Diann Mills. It starts with a bang and moves nonstop to a very unexpected ending.
Shelby Pearce has just been released from prison where she served time for manslaughter, and she’s ready for a fresh start. But starting over isn’t easy for a parolee.
FBI Special Agent Denton McClure was a rookie when Shelby was convicted, and he believes she has also embezzled $500,000. He goes undercover to befriend Shelby and track down the money. As he gets to know Shelby, Denton begins to have doubts about her conviction. Meanwhile, someone is going to a lot of trouble to discredit or eliminate Shelby.
This book is fast paced and keeps you on the edge of your seat. There are lots of twists and turns, and breadcrumbs along the way that add doubt about Shelby’s guilt. Is Shelby villain or victim? Denton isn’t sure. The supporting characters are an interesting mix, either making you furious or making you laugh.
Trace of Doubt is Christian romantic suspense. Suspense takes the starring role, but there are also strong notes of redemption and forgiveness.
This is one not to be missed. It will be available September 7, 2021. I received an advance copy from the publisher and Net Galley in exchange for my opinion.
