Worth the Listen

This is the first installment in the O'Malley series. I enjoyed this book, it was suspenseful and it had a great christian theme. I think there could of been a little more romance but the book was still good. I have listened to the entire O'Malley series and this is one of the best, though the entire series is very good. I think it is good to see christians operating in these type of roles.

This was an unexpected delight

I really enjoyed this book! It was wonderful how the author wrote about Jesus but this book was also a love story and action packed. It gets you from every angle of emotion!

Great Read

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I love Dee Henderson's dramatic but sensitive style and the wit that is always present.

What does Tom Stechschulte bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I have heard other books and thought, "Wish I were reading this myself". However, not so with Tom. It was as if I WERE actually reading it. He picks up the wit and drama very well.

One of My Favorites

Any additional comments?

One of my favorite books now in audio. Tom Stechsulte's narration was great. I could easily follow the story and who was talking. A heartwarming police/romance/inspirational story well worth the time.

First in a good series

This is a Christian novel and first in a series. I enjoyed all of the stories. They had a little bit of everything, romance , action, drama, laughter, and saddness. If you like good christian novels you can't go wrong with this series. The narrator took a bit getting used to but didn't detract from the overall experience.

great book.

Dee Henderson is great storyteller. The O'Malley book series was the first Christian book series I read. It started a love for Christian audio books that has led me to listen to well over 100 books.
