If you have not read the first book in the Mark of Lion series, please do so before reading this one. I read all three book in the series and this one was most compelling. This is the best of the Christian fiction I have read.

This was the first of Dan Silva's book that I have read. The fast pace thriller was very enjoyable and put me on the path of reading all of his novels. If you are a reader of suspense novels, don't miss the opportunity to read his books.

This is a slow developing novel. It has sexually explicit scenes and really does not develop the plot. It was too futuristic for me;it is more science fiction than thriller.
