Canyon of Deceit is the newest Christian romantic suspense novel from award-winning DiAnn Mills. This book is written in first-person POV (point of view) with alternate narrators. I haven't always been a fan of first-person POV novels; however, Ms. Mills does it so well that I have come to enjoy it.
Ms. Mills has a wonderful talent for blending history, well-developed characters, and a great suspense thread
The main characters of Canyon of Deceit are Therese Palmer, a wilderness survival expert, and Blane Gardner, a Texas Ranger with expert negotiating skills.
Threse receives a call from Professor Rurik Ivanov, from the University where she had taught a survival course the year before. His 8-year-old daughter, Alina, has been kidnapped, and he is requesting Therese's help in finding her. This will require her survival skills and martial arts skills in order to find the young girl.
Therese had contacted Texas Ranger Gardner, whom she met at a wilderness survival class. She asks for his help in finding Alina, but lets him know the Professor wants things kept quiet. Therese has a feeling that more is involved than just the kidnapping. Could Russian organised crime be involved, or maybe something more nefarious?
There are sparks between Therese and Blane, but Therese doesn't want to get involved with a non-Christian. Blane said his faith is real and asks for a chance to show her that he has changed. Will a fire ignite between them?
If you like Christian Romantic Suspense novels that are filled with twists and turns, I would highly recommend Canyon of Deceit.
On a five-star scale, I give it 5 Stars!
