Godsent: A Thriller

Thiis book has some religion but is written more like in the Da Vinci Code, most is necessary to create the storyline. A very smart, plot-driven thriller starting with Kate, a young, pregnant, virgin, who is unfortunately very naive and has no  competent  parental support.  After Kate is forced to endure several horrendous doctors her dictator Grandfather takes her out of the country to give birth in a nunnery where she is duped into believing that her male child has died and the conspiracy is set in motion.  Then it skips through the next eighteen years of her sons life while he lives with his adapted parents, who are really agents hired by Kate's Grandfather to protect him from a covert group of religious fanatics.  When he turns eighteen is when the real meat of the story begins and keeps up a nice rapid pace of a very solid read.  The conspiracy and mystery components are an excellent coupling with emotion and human nature. While the original intention of Kate's Grandfather is to bring "God back" into everyday society money and power change everything.  The characters are well developed and relatable. The ending was a little strange but probably because it was setting you up for the second book. 

The narrator did an A+ job, the voices were done with consistency and the  rise and fall of the pace was great.  She also narrated, "Gone Girl" and "The Witness". 

The movie rights were acquired in Oct. 2012 by the company that produced the "Twilight" saga so I am glad that I read/listened to it before it goes to the big screen. A sequel is being written and it may turn into a trilogy.
