Skin and Bone
Dark secrets in northern Washington.
Kenna is only slightly hiding from testifying in federal hearings about her actions in Las Vegas when a routine stakeout yields a mysterious invitation—and a startling connection to a case her father worked in his FBI days. Driven by her curiosity and a desire to reconcile her father’s past, Kenna explores the derelict compound where Max Banbury rescued a group of children from a deadly cult. While there, Kenna encounters a couple of trespassing teens. One is injured, and the other disappears, making it seem like the Children of the Morning might not be as dead as everyone thinks.
Yet, Kenna is not alone in her quest.
Even with Jax occupied by his duties in D.C. assisting the Department of Justice in closing the Rushman case, Kenna finds herself surrounded by allies in unexpected places. Plus she’s got Maizie and Stairns, with their unique expertise, to help her figure out exactly what is happening—though not before things quickly become deadly. As a hidden group relentlessly pursues the child under Kenna’s protection, driven by insidious motives, she knows one thing for sure…
Her brand of justice is the only way to end this.

Allyson –
This series just gets better and better. In this fifth installment, Kenna finds herself in another case with ties to the past involving her father. Her father was part of a FBI team that brought down a cult and rescued the children trapped in the cult years ago. Now the Children of the Morning is coming back into power, and it’s Kenna’s turn to stop the cult once and all.
Skin and Bone is a page turning thriller that is action-packed with some unexpected twists and a cliffhanger at the end of the book. A familiar character from a previous book in this series shows up in this latest installment.
I love how Lisa Phillips doesn’t rush Kenna into becoming a Christian immediately in this series but rather she’s learning and finding out Who God is. Ryson is a new Christian, and his advice to her about peace being a fruit of the Spirit is a golden nugget of wisdom.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
