ABOUT THE AUTHOR:

ABOUT THE BOOK
Laila had it all--love, family, wealth, and faith. But when her faith crumbles, her world falls apart and Laila finds herself living an empty, dangerous life as a call girl in Chicago.
When she is threatened, Laila shoots and kills a client in self-defense, sending herself into a spiral of guilt and emptiness. Six months later, she is trying to move on, but she's haunted by the past. She hasn't told anyone about the man she killed, and she's still estranged from her family.
When she is approached by a stranger who says he knows what she did, Laila has no choice but to run. But the stranger stays close behind, and Laila begins having visions of the man she killed. Little does she know she's being hounded by something not of this world, something that knows her deepest, darkest secret.
Scared and wandering, will Laila regain her trust in God to protect her from these demons? Or will her plea for salvation come too late?

My Review:
I was provided with these amazing Christians suspense thriller compliments of Christian Fiction Blog Alliance to review. Again, along the lines of Stephen King, you find yourself transported by to New Orleans with Laila as she outruns the past and the voodoo that surrounds the town itself.
Is Laila really seeing ghosts from her past or is there something from another realm searching for the truth that Laila is running from? Who is the figure that appears to her with hallowed blacken eyes or does it merely exist in her imagination or dreams? I would highly recommend this book to anyone who loves mystery thrillers based in Christian faith, then this is a must read for you.

You do such a great job with your book reviews.
This sounds interseting and sounds like the author has tackled a subject which bothers some Christians but few will write about. Thank you!
