First bad review of The Defilers
Royal Canadian Mounted Police Officer, Linda Donner, is struggling to overcome severe childhood trauma, suffered when she was abused by a priest who came to counsel her. Linda's distrust of men and authority figures is causing her problems at home and in her work place. As she works to solve a death in the seamier side of town, Linda must come face to face with her fears.
The Defilers has a Christian message, including a salvation scene for one of the characters, showing how this person's life is changed afterwards. The author did a nice job depicting the new believer as a new creation in Christ.
There were many disturbing scenes in The Defilers. Although there weren't graphic descriptions, the images were very clear.
The writer goes on to say she would not recommend the book or pass it on.
Oh well. A review like this would make a reader like me want to read the book. At least she didn't say the writing stank or the Christian message was tacked on and hokey. And I believe there are lots of Christians out there who are like me and don't want safe writing.
