Review: According to Their Deeds

Author: ABOUT THE BOOK
According to Their Deeds (Bethany House, March 1, 2009) by Paul Robertson reveals a deadly game of justice versus mercy. Charles Beale lives outside the shadow of Washington, D.C. Politics and power matter only when a client crosses the Potomac to visit his Alexandria Rare Books shop.
But that all changes when a former client–a man deeply connected in the Justice Department–is found murdered after a break-in gone bad. When Charles reclaims at auction the books he’d once sold, he quickly discovers he’s bought more trouble than he could have ever imagined.
Inside one volume are secrets. A collection of sins that, if revealed, could destroy reputations, careers–even lives. Charles soon learns he isn’t the only who knows. Going to the police means ruining a multitude of lives. But staying silent puts a target on his shop, his wife–and himself. Charles must decide: Should one mistake really cost you everything?

MY THOUGHTS:
I loved that this book is about antiques and booksellers. I have a small collection of older books that set on our fireplace mantle. I really want to give you my thoughts on this book, but our week has been crazy because of the flooding and also family friends from Las Vegas moving to the farm. My brain is so tired I doubt I could put more than three sentences together to make sense! So, if this book sounds interesting to you, I encourage you to jump over to Jendi’s review or Amy’s review or Janna’s review.
