The ATF have a man in place and Mercy will pose as his girlfriend. There will be zero contact. Sworn to secrecy she can’t even tell Truman where she will be or details about the case. Meanwhile, Truman investigates a possible serial killer, as the bodies of dead men are being found.
The tale that unfolds is brutal and terrifying. Mercy must keep herself alive and help the children she finds in the camp. The story alternates between Mercy and Truman’s POVs. As they work both cases, the tension builds until it meets a crescendo that kept me reading until the bitter end.
We get closure but also with the characters, family relationships and the romance that’s been an arc in the overall series. I closed A Merciful Promise, with a smile. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer
