I have read four
other books from the Rock Harbor Collection, and a couple of other books in
which Rock Harbor characters made cameo appearances. I really enjoyed returning
to Rock Harbor in Haven of Swans, and
following along with Bree and Kade as they assisted Bay City Police Captain Nick
Andreakos in his search for a serial killer, a search that became very personal
to each of them. Bree’s search dog, Samson, plays, as always, a very big role
in apprehending the killer, but will he lead Bree there in time to stop him
from killing again?
Fans of the
television show “Criminal Minds” will be great fans of Haven of Swans as well. While I would classify most of the Rock
Harbor books as mysteries, I would classify this one as a psychological
thriller. Coble has included quite a few red herrings for her reader to sort
out. Through most of the book I prided myself on identifying the killer,
snickering at Coble’s attempts to lead me down another path, only to be quite
humbled by his true identity.
I highly
recommend this book to mystery, thriller, and romance fans. While Colleen Coble
is a Christian writer, this book is not preachy, and will appeal to both
Christian and secular audiences. This summer a new Rock Harbor book will be
added to the collection, Beneath Copper
Falls. I, along with other Coble fans, will anxiously be awaiting this next
installment. I thank Thomas Nelson and NetGalley for providing me with this
copy of Havens of Swans in exchange for
my honest opinion. I received no monetary compensation for this review.
