Double Cross
By James David Jordan
Review by B. Chenier

 

 

 

This is the first book I have read by James David Jordan and have found him to be an interesting author. His degrees in law and journalism lend well to the adventure content of this story. I understand this to be his third novel and I will be sure to read more of him. Double Cross stands on its own unless you (like me) have this enquiring mind that is not satisfied without asking a hundred questions to get a whole picture.

Taylor Pasbury has lost a mother, who walked out on her and her and her father early in her life only to return in a most troubling time in Taylor's life. Taylor had set out to find her mother but was not prepared for the little quirks in her personality that came with her. Was she here to be her mother or are there other reasons for her reappearance at this particular time? Taylor has lost her father and most trusted friend at the same time and thinks she needs to earn the sacrifices they gave in giving their lives up to save her. The lessons that sacrifices cannot be earned comes for the most surprising avenue. Her ability to take care of herself was taught to her early by her father but is challenged by the death of a former friend's top assistant and her dilemma to solve an embezzlement plot and keep her promise to her friend to keep his daughter safe.

Double Cross brings humor, faith and emotions all together for the reader to experience. I would recommend the book to preteen and up to be read as a guide to know God's blessings come in all experiences in one's life. Life is to find humor in all of your days, as, looking back on life, you will find that it was those moments you found hope.
