Books like Even in the darkness by Shirlee McCoy
Tori Riley, a veterinarian who has recently been called out of early retirement, finds herself in a country she barely knows, with men willing to kill to get what they want. She will do anything to keep her adopted daughter safe, even if it means depending on a man who might not be telling her the truth. Former DEA agent Noah Stone is skeptical of her motives—after all, what kind of vet gets involved with drug lords? But there is no time for questions, and each second brings an unscrupulous enemy closer to Tori’s daughter.
In this suspenseful blend of action and romance, faith and family collide. Faith-based reading material, this thriller shows the resilience of a mother’s love amid violence and deception. Suspense escalates as a chase unfolds, and the stakes grow as the immediate danger threatens a family’s future.
