In Tennessee, a young lawyer is murdered, and the main suspect is Dr. Tag Grissom. Eli Faulkner is hired to defend the arrogant cardiologist, but the deeper he gets into the case, the more questions arise—and the fewer answers he’s sure about. He agreed to defend Tag mainly because Anna Grissom pled her husband’s case so genuinely. But even her story seems to have holes. So who really murdered Jessica Caldwell and her unborn baby? A Supreme Court Judge has passed away, and President Wallace has a rare opportunity to appoint a replacement. He knows God has put him in his position for this very reason, but getting his Christian candidate approved requires some major game playing. Senate Majority Leader Lance Proctor would shoot down his candidate in a heartbeat rather than risk appointing a judge who might vote to overturn Roe v. Wade. Unless perhaps a deal can be struck. The Divine Appointment is a legal and political thriller that takes the readers from the crime scene in Tennessee to the White House and many places in between. We get to see from the eyes of many different characters as this intricate web of intrigue, politics, and murder plays out. It took me a while to be able to keep all those characters straight, and even longer to figure out what the two plots had to do with one another. The action was fast-paced, though, and the situation compelling. The latter half of the book especially was difficult to put down. Tackling the debate of the constitutional right to an abortion as well as the more basic need to share the Gospel with everyone in your life—even those who may not hear you—Jerome Teel writes an involved and engrossing story. If you love legal thrillers or political stories, this will be right up your alley. The mystery is also interesting; though I had figured out whodunit not very far into the book, there were still a few surprises along the way that added more depth and motivation.
