Reading
the description of the storyline is what drew me in and want to read Rule
of Law by Randy Singer. Intrigue,
suspense, politics and the news media sounds like a story ripped from today’s
headlines.
The
story opens with Navy SEAL Team Six ready to deploy on a mission in Yemen, led
by Patrick Quillen. Before the reader
finds out if the mission will succeed, we are taken back two months earlier and
meet Paige Chambers, a young attorney, who is about to come up against famed and
unconventional attorney Wyatt Jackson.
Little does she know how their futures will converge.
As
the story continues the President, Vice President and their staff, military
personnel and families, Supreme Court Justices, the news media and Islamic clerics
all come into play to make this story, which is full of twists and turns, come
alive.
Randy Singer is a writer whose work is
new to me. I love it when I find a good
author. Not only do I get to enjoy their
current work, but now I can go back and read their earlier novels.
What
makes an author a great writer verses one that’s so, so? I’m not sure I know the answer to that. But I can tell you from the opening pages of
this book, I was hooked. I was
interested in the story, I cared about the people, even the bad guys. I wanted to know what would happen next and I
wanted to understand what made these people tick and why they did what they
did. The pace didn’t let up and it kept
me guessing until the end. Be
forewarned, Rule of Law may keep you up late at night to find out what happens next.
As
I read Rule of Law, I was forced to examine my thoughts on what rights
the President of the United States should have to executive privilege and what
lengths they can go to, to protect our nation.
Should they be allowed the bend or even break the law? It’s one thing when it’s an administration that
I trust and respect, but another when it’s one I don’t support.
Rule of Law by Randy Singer is a fast-paced novel
filled with intrigue and surprises. It’s
thought provoking and a great read. I
highly recommend this book and look forward to reading Randy Singer’s other novels.
I
would like to thank Litfuse Group and
Tyndale House Publishers for the opportunity to read Rule of Law by Randy Singer. I was under no obligation to give a favorable
review.
