Two years ago, Bailey Adams broke off her engagement to Danny Maxwell and fled Logan Point for the mission field in Chihuahua, Mexico. Now she's about to return home to the States, but there's just one problem. After Bailey meets with the uncle of one of the mission children in the city, she barely escapes a sudden danger. Now she's on the run--she just doesn't know from whom. To make matters worse, people who help her along the way find themselves in danger too--including Danny. Who is after her? Will they ever let up? And in the midst of the chaos, can Bailey keep herself from falling in love with her rescuer all over again?
A Mexican drug cartel led by an unknown mastermind, an adorable four-year-old girl who may be a kidnap target, and the sudden reappearance of an old flame. What could go wrong? Author Patricia Bradley takes us on an out-of-control roller coaster ride in Silence in the Dark, as she reveals the myriad dangers facing Bailey.
I’ve read the other books in Bradley’s Logan Point Series, so I expected a fast pace and well-developed characters. This story did not disappoint in that, and the tension kept me reading (and chewing my nails) right to the end. The depth of depravity in the villains bothered me, even though it’s most likely realistic, and that detracted somewhat from my pleasure in the story. In spite of that one small drawback, I enjoyed Silence in the Dark and award it four stars.
I was given a copy of this book by the publisher in exchange for my honest opinion, which I have given.
