Jaimie Piper is a young foster kid who has a strange power of being able to sense evil. Crockett Grey is her teacher who is still struggling with the loss of his daughter. For the first time since his daughter died, his life is uprooted again when Jaimie shows up in the middle of the night speaking of evil following her and needing a place to stay for the night.
Crockett tries to do the right thing but ends up in deeper water than he realizes when he finds that the evil following Jaimie is now out to make sure he is not able to speak of what he has heard. The only way Crockett can get his life back to normal is to search for the truth, which leads him to unexpected places.
The Canary List by Sigmund Brouwer is intriguing. It is easy to follow, and, without spoiling what happens, it has some twists which make the ending interesting. The evil that Jaimie deals with in the book brings them to corruption within the Vatican, which, to me, is predictable and a little boring. Therefore, I would rate this book a 3 out of 5 because it was entertaining but the Vatican conspiracy in the book made it a little dull.
I got this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group. All the thoughts on the book are my own.
