Zondervan Deceived - eBook
Two bodies in an isolated canyon on the edge of L.A. One with saddlebags filled with diamonds. That's how it begins for Liz Towne, a stunning blonde with a devout husband who has given up a prime job for reasons Liz cannot understand— for "Mac" MacDonald, a Gulf War vet who's done time in prison and is just now finding his way back to normal life—and for Roxanne "Rocky" Towne, Liz's sister-in-law, who suspects things she cannot prove. All three are thrown together after a tragedy in Pack Canyon. After stumbling upon the stolen diamonds, Liz is faced with an escalating set of choices: Truth or lies? Love or money? Saint or sinner? Liz thinks she knows who she is and what she wants, but when the web gets terribly tangled, is her game of deception a clever lie or a deadly trap? A new suspense thriller from James Scott Bell, bestselling author of Presumed Guilty.

This book leaves you guessing and makes you wonder what will happen next. The only down side to this book is the cliffhanger.

James Scott Bell has written a twist-turning tale of three individuals all on a course into destruction or redemption. To tell to much of this story would give it away, but let's just say that the greed for diamonds will lead down a path of deceipt that snowballs so much, you'll wonder how it will all end. The character of Liz Towne reminds me of the classic character in Steinbeck's East of Eden, Kate, who will follow her sinful desires at the cost of anyone as well as her own soul. The ending was unexpected and you'll definitely will find yourself reading to the end. The grace of the Gospel can certainly be found too and it is an important aspect of the story. Buy this riveting tale and enjoy.

I read this book for our church's book club. I can't say I liked it much. I didn't care for any of the characters, except Mac, and even then he wasn't that likeable. I thought the ending in particular was lame. I won't give away the ending, but it sounded to me like the author didn't quite know how to wrap up the tale. Not at all what I expected.

A story packed with mystery and a woman whowants what she can not have and another whowants answers. Lies run the gamut in thisstory and will lead to a downfall.

James Scott Bell has filled his latest offering with a varied cast of saints and sinners. The characters are mostly believable and his style of writing moves events at a rapid pace. It kept me reading way past my usual bedtime.

Have your popcorn and Diet Coke at the ready by your reading chair because you're going to be there for a while. DECEIVED has all the twists and turns of a good roller coaster and just as you think there are no more loopty loops, you'll hit another. This book cannot be left alone until every word is digested. A satisfying read with a very satisfying ending.

Richard Mabry
At first, I wasn't sure how James Scott Bell was going to interweave the lives and actions of the characters he was introducing. However, I soon found them all linked in a web of deceit, with tension that continued to build throughout the whole book. And, for those of you who tend to skip ahead in a book to avoid the boring parts, be prepared to just keep reading--there are no boring parts. Morality and religion play a big part in the plot, but so do murder and deceit. This is one of Bell's best so far.
