PREMEDITATED: A Trust Betrayed, Lives Sabotaged, A Love Undaunted (Agents of Justice Book 2) by Susanna Haymond – Review by Amy Brennan

Premeditated by Susanna Haymond
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have dabbled in religion here and there and have never full felt the pull that one should when they have found their niche, their beliefs met, and found comfort in those thoughts. I have been on a couple of missionary trips with different churches, so this novel resonated with me. Especially since one of those trips was to Mexico. Of course, I didn’t go through near the adventure and fear that Nora did throughout this novel, but nonetheless, it was invigorating to read of such a trip, and makes me want to revisit the idea of going on more in the future. This author wove an intricate story, telling numerous different sides and did very well doing so.

I didn’t find it easy to get through the novel, however, I suppose it was just not my cup of tea now, as I found it a little difficult to connect with all the different characters within. Nora, and Dot’s friendship was one that I admire, and the descriptiveness within these pages was very well done, as I felt like the world building was well established. Overall, the mission’s trip, the DEA folks, and the supporting characters had a lot of thought put into them, just perhaps didn’t allow the reader to connect enough to maintain interest, truly the only spot I felt was lacking. A good read, and certainly worth it if your beliefs match those of the characters. Would recommend!
