It took me a couple of years to get to this book. I have downloaded it back in 2012 when things in my life were falling apart and my life changed. Back then I was angry, disillusioned with life, marriage, church and God and I lost my way. The last thing I wanted to do was read another Christian book.

Now, after all these years I have found my way back and enjoyed this book. The foundational scripture the author used is very appropriate for the storyline and it came alive through the character of Riley Keep. A man who lost his way after a heartbreaking experience as a missionary.

The storytelling took me right to the heart of the mystery Riley found himself in. A mystery that caused riots around him, false accusations to derail his family while this man tried to fix things the best he could.

The problem with fixing things from the natural has a tendency to backfire and in this book, it is a certain fact. Never rely on your own understanding. It is then that you think you are all-powerful, in control and untouchable. But as the wheels came off Riley realised his flaw. When God steps in you know you have to be meek in order to be strong.

A wonderful book with so much depth and empath that it touches your heart while you enjoy a good mystery thriller. ( )

This was ok, but just barely. I had to skim through the last 60 pages just to finish. It started strong, but I just couldn't connect to the characters. ( )

I didn't like this one very much at all. As a matter of fact, I was very disapponited and almost put it down. This is the reason I don't read Christian fiction: it's too over-the-top and a bit holier-than-thou. I found the character Riley to be too flawed to be believable, had no sympathy for him, and thought him overly simple, naive and weak. Since he was the main character, that pretty much ruined the book for me.

I do not recommend this book and will not read more by this author.

Amazing from many aspects, The Cure will get you. There are many points of this I could speak about directly with the voice of experience. Others, I will have to let someone else talk about them. All in all, the sad thing about this book is that those who have not been there will never understand. More later. ( )

An interesting read. I think its one you almost have to go back and read again once you understand the ending. It wasn't easy to read in bits as each chapter is a different character so because I read it over a month it easy to loose the plot. ( )
