Synopsis

Absolute power breeds absolute corruption. While former Marine lieutenant Robin Duncan is no stranger to corruption or conspiracy, she has always been able to tell the good guys from the bad. At first, her current assignment is no different: working on behalf of an international corporation to secure a valuable Congo mining region from the attacks of an insurgent killer. But as her security team tries to track down their target, Robin has to face a man who broke her trust years ago, and she discovers the gray areas extend further in this jungle wilderness than she anticipated. A ruthless global conspiracy begins to surface, run by powerful men who can’t afford to leave any witnesses. Her life at stake, Robin doesn’t know whom to trust and wonders how she can help protect the Congolese people. Why is God silent amid all the pain and injustice? And how do these people of faith continue to rejoice in their suffering?

Congo Dawn may very well be my all-time favorite of Jeanette Windle’s books. But then I say that with each of her books that come out.

Goodreads review by Janell

Love this author! She is one of the most talented contemporary authors I've had the pleasure to read after (this is not my first experience with her). She can weave a suspenseful tale that keeps you going about 60-70 MPH through 3/4 of the book, and then the last quarter of the book it speeds up to......more
