New Release on October 23rd - Wasted (Windy City Westons Book 2) by Jerusha Agen

 


She always follows the rules. But what are the rules for murder?

Victoria Weston encounters tough things as a home health physical therapist, but this is a first—a dead body. The police call the patient’s death accidental. Victoria knows that can’t be true. Her efforts to convince the police they’re dealing with a murder get her labeled a troublemaker by all but one man—the troubler of her youth.

When Cillian Doherty returns to right the wrongs of the past, he finds his high school flame in a different kind of danger than he expected. As a social worker, he’s in the perfect position to corroborate her cry of murder or give her what she wanted—to handle her problems without his help.

But someone wants to silence Victoria. When lies escalate to violence and threaten more lives, the Weston siblings join the battle to save their sister. But it will take a God more powerful than all of them for Cillian and Victoria to make peace with their past and catch the killer. Before the killer catches them.

Wasted continues the thrilling Windy City Westons series that features five siblings who encounter danger, love, and God in the city of Chicago.

(Each book can stand alone or be read as a series installment.)

MY REVIEW


Wasted is a chilling tale with many twists and turns. Victoria battles with her emotions in seeing her childhood boyfriend, Cillian, after many years. Victoria Weston, a home health physical therapist, and Cillian Doherty, a social worker for the same company, find themselves in the middle of a murder investigation.

The story is original, with lots of family tension, and spiritual content that made me smile to know that God was involved. I loved the characters with their many layers. Victoria made a concerted effort to maintain peace with her family while still upholding her own beliefs.

The story is a page-turner that kept me guessing who the murderer was, while taking me down a few rabbit holes along the way. It was an exhilarating edge-of-my-seat ride until the end, which wrapped everything up nicely. Highly recommended.

I received a complimentary copy from the author; a positive review is not required. All opinions are my own
