This is a great book...yet again by a talented, gifted author. I enjoy his books. This book was sent to me electronically for review by Netgalley. This is a book that is difficult to put down. Enjoy.

THE RECORD KEEPER is the third novel in the Murphy Shepherd series by CHARLES MARTIN, but it can easily stand alone. It is a suspense thriller with a strong Christian message of redemption and sacrificial love, as we see Murphy, with his mentor Bones, saving literally hundreds of young boys and grls who have been kidnapped and are being abused. The author especially shows the hypocrisy of some supposedly godly priests and well known business men who ruin these young people’s lives with their sexual perversion. Bones and his twin brother Frank experienced these horrors first hand leading to Bones literally ‘leaving the ninety-nine to save the one”, whereas Frank becomes a crime boss who makes millions in the flesh trade with the blackmail that goes with it.
I really like the author’s almost poetical way with prose as he writes about these serious issues and porrays the characters’ emotions.
The Record Keeper is a worthwhile, exciting and inspirational read which I highly recommend.
I was given a free copy of the book from NetGalley from Thomas Nelson. The opinions in this review are completely my own.
