What readers say
Readers enjoy Mercy Falls for clean, faith-filled historical romantic suspense on the early-1900s Northern California coast, with lighthouses, a spirited heroine, sweet romance and mysteries whose twists many say are hard to predict. Several readers feel the Christian themes are woven in naturally. Common criticisms are stilted prose and editing slips, romances that move too fast, leads who seem too perfect, clues that feel vague or far-fetched and thin historical detail, and a few find the faith elements too simple.
Best for: Readers who want gentle Christian historical suspense with a clean romance and a twisty mystery.
