Description
Something sinuous in the water brushed against Paige's knee. She jerked her leg away. What was that? She rose to a sitting position, groped around with her left hand. Fine wisps wound themselves around her fingers. Hair? She yanked backward, but the tendrils clung. Something solid bumped her wrist. Paige gasped. With one frantic motion she shook her arm free, grabbed the side of the hot tub, and heaved herself out. Paige Williams slips into her hot tub in the blackness of night - and finds herself face to face with death. Alone, terrified, fleeing a dark past, Paige must make an unthinkable choice. In Violet Dawn, hurtling events and richly drawn characters collide in a breathless story of murder, the need to belong, and faith's first glimmer. One woman's secrets unleash an entire town's pursuit, and the truth proves as elusive as the killer in their midst.… (more)

I like books that suck you in right from the beginning, and the opening scene of this one did just that.
The story is decently written with some very good twists and turns. The character development is good and although there were some events that I thought could have been elaborated on. The chapter change usually means a change of perspective to another character. Where this usually easy to follow what I didn���t like was that there was one perspective throughout that was on a different time clock than the rest of the storyline. This made it quite confusing for me to follow and is my complaint about the book. All the other perspectives added to the story as a progression. However this out of synced one made it confusing to understand why it as placed where it was. In the end the details fit in with the plot but I think it could have been handled through the line better. All in all a good page turner that kept you guessing and anxiously awaiting the next twist.
