Seeds of Evidence by Linda White Blog Tour Review

Recently I received a copy of the following book in exchange for my honest review. In the post you will have the opportunity click on an advertising link and purchase the book. The FTC requires you be given fair warning!
Stressed-out FBI Special Agent Kit McGovern returns to her grandmother’s Chincoteague Island home in search of peace. But when a little boy’s body washes up on the beach, Kit cannot resist throwing herself into the mystery of his murder. Her only clues: the tomato seeds in the Latino boy’s gut, and the acorns in his pockets.
Kit meets David O’Connor, a D.C. homicide detective in Chincoteague recovering from a shooting incident. She makes it clear she’s not interested in a relationship, but their passion for justice is mutual and they soon forge a partnership to find the boy’s murderer. As plant DNA evidence leads them straight into the dark world of human trafficking, Kit and David wrestle with the depths of human evil, with questions of faith, and with possibilities for hope. “Seeds of Evidence” takes readers on a white-knuckle ride they won’t soon forget.

My Thoughts:
Oh my, This book is amazing! You will be hooked from the start! I was!  It begins with a mystery - dead body on the beach; But the twists and turns are incredible and as you get deeper into the book the plot thickens. It surprising this story is fiction, it seems so much like a real tale. Linda deals with real life issues such as faith struggles, human trafficking, immigration, crime and much more. The FBI agent, Kim, and D.C. detective, David have somewhat of a love-hate relationship from the start. Kim has had her share of relationship disappointments, especially after her divorce, and David, well, he is not sure a person with this kind of career should even be married. Yet, they are drawn to each other by an invisible magnetic force. Kim especially is trying to avoid him at all costs. She has been let down by too many people including God. Can she forgive, find God again, and allow someone new in her life or will she live her life solely devoted to her career? I very much enjoyed Linda's writing style. It was easy to read and follow.
