Publisher's summary

Combining heart-wrenching emotion with edge-of-your-seat tension, New York Times best-selling author Charles Martin explores the true power of sacrificial love.

Murphy Shepherd has made a career of finding those no one else could - survivors of human trafficking. His life’s mission is helping others find freedom...but then the nightmare strikes too close to home.

When his new wife, her daughter, and two other teenage girls are stolen, Murphy is left questioning all he has thought to be true. With more dead ends than leads, he has no idea how to find his loved ones. After everything is stripped away, love is what remains.

Hope feels lost, but Murphy is willing to expend his last breath trying to bring them home.

Praise for The Letter Keeper:

“A man broken by events beyond his control accepts the challenge to walk dark ways in order to bring the lost and helpless home, but he comes close to losing himself in the process. Despite the hardship and heartache, Martin’s story shines with the light of eternal hope.” (Davis Bunn, writing for Christianity Today)

“It is unequivocally, hands down, a remarkable read. It’s everything you want (and a whole lot more) from a sequel ... Y’all better get ready. Like I said last time, clear your schedule. Then read this book ...front to back. There will be more sweaty palms, fist pumps, tears, and laughter than the first one. I promise.” (Charlie Martin, Charles Martin’s son)

Captivating

The Murphy Shepherd novels are powerful and eye opening. Human Trafficking is real! Rescuers are courageous. We need more of them. The narrator’s voice is a perfect fit too.

Great book

I listened to this book on audible. Loved the narrator and have always loved the author. He always writes the best books and I have read everyone of them. This was my first audible book by him. I read somewhere that he has started on the third book in this series and I am ready for it to come out. I want to leave the author, Charles Martin, a message. “Please DO NOT let anything happen to Bones or the dog” in the next book. And keep writing. 🤗❤️

cliff hanger!

another great book by Charles Martin! once again I laughed and cried and loved and sat on the edge of my seat! an engrossing second installment in the Murphy Shepherd series. by the final chapters, I couldn't get the characters out of my mind during the day, couldn't wait until evening for reading time to come again! I continue to admire Mr Martin's ability to tell a riveting adventure story with plenty of romance but without excess profanity or sex. can't wait to read book #3 in the series!!!

It didn’t move me but I was entertained

I liked this book. I was entertained and just let go into the story. I guess I could be critical and analyze all the reasons I could not like it or just let go and enjoy which I did. I am a nurse and some of the medical details were a bit hard to swallow but I didn’t let it bug me.
