    When Detective Noah Adams meets the abused son of a powerful judge, he knows he must intervene—and fast. The violence is escalating, and even Noah’s special gifts may not prevent the unthinkable from happening.     
                                               
    Relentlessly pursuing two cases, Noah receives a chilling message: Cody’s deranged father has taken his son and it’s up to Noah to follow the judge’s twisted trail to find the boy before it’s too late. 

    Corrupt city officials, a missing socialite, an attempted murder, and a rescue in the middle of a blizzard entangle Noah in the most complicated case of his career. A case that will mean his ultimate redemption or will take him back into the dark history that haunts him.

    What a phenomenal story! I love Virginia's writing! Pardon the exclamation points, but it's true. Her stories are wonderful. This is the fourth one I've read and they're all great. The Watchman grabbed me, literally, from page one! Abuse a child? No way! And especially from someone he should be able to trust? Plus abuse the child's mother for trying to protect him? Not on my watch! We all need that Watchman, someone to watch over us when those who have power are not what they should be. This story is written with a gentle, but firm hand, true to the seriousness of the topic, but not overwhelming in the horrible details - but certainly enough to bring out the protector in anyone's heart. The dialogue is sometimes witty and entertaining, and the characters all reach out to touch your heart. Wonderful story! Really, DO NOT MISS THIS ONE!!!

Ok, so about midway through I searched Audible for more books by a new favorite author, V.B. Tenery, an purchased a 2 book series beginning. I think that alone speaks well of the writing. At the end of the story, I didn't regret my purchase. However, now I'll say specifically what I liked about this story. Noah Adams is a former Marine, turned cop then PI with some specialized skills that only YHWH could have blessed him with. He uses all of his talents and training to help women and children out of abusive situations. It has often been said that one's personal testimony will at some point be used to help others in a similar situation. That's as close to a spoiler as I feel comfortable giving, because the book is well worth the listen/read. Bonus, a recounting of Corrie Ten Boom's "fleas" story which is somethi
