The Faithful

When I was asked to review "The Faithful" by Jonathan Weyer I was super excited. I have loved thriller and fantasy-ish Christian fiction and have really enjoyed past thriller writers such as Frank Peretti.
The Faithful stars Aidan, an assistant pastor who is having major doubts about his faith in God. His faithful friend Brian guides him through some of the questioning, but Aidan is still full of doubt. Then weird things start to happen to those around Aidan.
Footprints appear, seemingly out of nowhere. Then a vicious murder with demonic undertones. Aidan is sucked into the investigation because he was very close to the murder victim.
While searching for a demonic killer Aidan meets many new people and learns more and more about faith and the power of good and evil.

I don't want to spill any secrets, because this is a really great thriller. I totally could relate to Aidan's life, doubts and search for the truth. Plus, the pages turn so quickly, it is a great book for a weekend away. I am excited to see what Jonathan Weyer comes up with next!
