REVIEW OF MARGARET DALEY'S SO DARK THE NIGHT

By Marion Kelley Bullock

When Emma St. John arrived at her family’s lake cabin to meet her beloved brother, she met tragedy and lost her eyesight and her memory. Police believed she’d witnessed her beloved brother’s murder before she plunged through the dark woods and dashed out in front of a car.

Reverend Colin Fitzpatrick, the driver of the car, is haunted by his first glimpse of Emma’s lovely face before his car hit her. She was fleeing someone—or something. He feels she’s his responsibility. But keeping her out of the hands of the killers will require more than he can provide. It will provide divine intervention.

Suspense builds as Colin and Emma stay one step ahead of the murderers. If you enjoy a fast-paced novel, you’ll want this one. It’s hard to put down!
