My Opinion:
This is a GREAT book!!! Filled with twists and turns; though I thought I knew who the killer was early on I was never 100% positive!!! There are SO many twists! Sandra knows how to end a chapter in a way that you don't want to put the book down because you have to see what happens next. I can't wait for the next book in the series especially after the teaser in the back. There where some times that I felt it jumped around a little too much and I thought I had missed something. A fast paced mystery that's full of suspense and adventure! Deadly Devotion is a must read and Sandra Orchard is a fabulous writer. From the dedication she not only had my attention, but I knew I had found a new favorite author! :) I love the characters with there secrets and faith, and I really loved that it was set in Canada. I for one haven't really read much set in Canada. I wish Daisy hadn't been the victim because I think she would have been a really cool character. LOL! I loved learning more about marigolds and other herbs that I didn't even know about. I wish there where certain businesses from this book in my home town! I don't want to give anything away so I'll pick my songs and sign off!
