What a treat to read another Kate Breslin book! I've really struggled this year to read any ebooks, but this one was a quick and absorbing read and kept me flipping pages despite that difficulty. While there isn't a lot about faith, it's clear they are steadied by their belief in God.The twists and turns in the plot left me reeling. We met Colin in [b:Not by Sight 23411528 Not by Sight Kate Breslin https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1415586111s/23411528.jpg 42794348] very briefly, but this book stands alone. I loved seeing more of Marcus in this one! Colin is an interesting young man from the very beginning, and I found it easy to care about him and Johanna from the very beginning. I guessed one plot facet at 53% and thought “there–I got it–that's the big reveal!” only to have it told to me at 62% and have plenty of book left to read. :) So the plotting was extremely well done and very absorbing.I do love a good spy story and this one is one I'd easily recommend. Thanks to Bethany House and NetGalley for a free copy. A favorable review was not required.
