As promised, I completed Enduring Justice by Amy Wallace. It was a gripping, intense read. Here are my thoughts:
Hannah Kessler was a wounded soul. She experienced trauma in her childhood that left her ashamed and eager to hide her hurts with lies and avoidance. She even ran away from home to escape her memories. When she returns home, at last, her family is happy to welcome her back. So is the handsome F.B.I. agent, Michael Parker. As their feelings are rekindled and their relationship grows, there remains a secret that Hannah just can’t share. Not yet. Racial prejudice and corruption in the system seem to hold back justice. Healing seems impossible. Pain seems permanent. While crime and violence loom closer and closer to Hannah, God’s protection is also made evident.
Amy Wallace weaves a wonderful story that involves the reader in all the suspense and emotional turmoil of the main character, Hannah Kessler. As the reader, you ride with Hannah through all of her tension and insecurity. You begin to sense the trappings of the past that have bound her. You really feel her struggle for justice and her desperation for freedom from this heavy weight she carries.
Enduring Justice is a wonderful read that will keep your eyes moving quickly over each page anxious for the justice and hope that Hannah craves.
At the end of this wonderful read, Amy Wallace shares her testimony and offers hope to the “real life Hannah’s” who are hiding their shame and hurts and hoping secretly to heal somehow. Her testimony is powerful and grace-filled.
Enduring Justice also provides wonderful questions upon the conclusion that make it a wonderful read for book clubs. These are thought-provoking questions that will quickly lead you back to the Word of God for answers.
