In Enduring Justice, Hanna Kessler’s childhood secret has remained buried for over two decades. But when the dark shadows of her past threaten to destroy those she loves, Hanna must face the summer that changed her life and the man who still haunts her thoughts.
Crimes Against Children FBI Agent, Michael Parker knows what it means to get knocked down. And when the system fails and a white supremacist is set free, Michael’s drive for retribution eclipses all else.
A racist’s well-planned assault forces Hanna and Michael to decide between executing vengeance and pursuing justice. When the attack turns personal, is healing still possible?
This thought-provoking novel deals with healing from sexual abuse, the balance of justice and mercy, and maintaining mixed-race friendships in the midst of racial tension. Readers who enjoy investigative thrillers by Dee Henderson, Colleen Coble, and Catherine Coulter, and who watch crime dramas like Law & Order: SVU, Criminal Minds, and Without a Trace will love this book—and the entire series.

I guess I never thought of murder and mayhem as a book that says “Mothers Day!” However, for me it’s great, because I love stuff like this! I’m going to put this one on hold at the library — doesn’t sound like one I necessarily want to own, but sounds good for reading. This is outside the murder and mayhem field, but a great book that I think will speak to lots of mothers out there is Honor Yourself by Patricia Spadaro. It’s about the art of giving and receiving — and let’s face it, mom are typically really good at giving, to their own detriment. It kind of gives a road map to finding a lot more balance in your life and as a result, greater happiness. You move behind the myths about giving and receiving and get a way to go to giving from the heart, which is way better. It’s inspiring. (Not as much blood and guts, I know — but inspiring nonetheless!)
And now, on to my library site…

Thanks Lizzie! I think that is a great point – moms are often great at giving. My mom is always giving of herself and hardly (if ever) thinking of herself. Thank you for the reference!
