This was a nice find among all the Kindle books in here. It is a story about faith, cunning and belief. It isn't a religious story. It does have its plot twists. Overcoming frustration the protagonist finds solutions to her problem. A thoroughly good mystery and all round interesting story.

Since I just got into eReading I began my search for interesting reads and looking for recommendations from others. I received a tip that this was a very interesting book so after I read the first few free chapters I decided I had to purchase this book to read "The Rest of the Story". It was very well written with many descriptive passages which made you want to continue on. I've read other more expensive books which didn't really give you the same feeling. Anyway, if it wasn't for Daniela's faith she would have been out of this abusive relationship with her husband long before the end. The ending came as a sudden turn of events but a satisfying one. I recommend that both husbands and wives should read this book which will provide an insight into some of the things that should not happen in a true relationship.

This first novel of Mason Cooks in e-book format touches on the many aspects of family, church and marital relationships. The main theme of older sister protecting younger sister is one to which many can relate. Also outward appearances aren't always what they seem which is born out by the relationship between other married characters in the settings of Gatineau and Montreal. Certainly the ending has a twist which is unexpected. Throughout the book, even from the very beginning, there is a sense of intrigue, something not being quite right in several of the relationship situations which makes the reader want to keep reading until the unbearable situation is resolved. Can't wait until the next book!
