Ashes and Lace

This book is the second in a series by B.J. Hoff and it arrived very quickly and is in excellent conditon.

This sequel to Cloth Of Heaven is worth the wait. Well thought out plot, compelling spiritual depth. Jack Kane is one of BJ's strongest, most well-layered heroes, and I particularly appreciated those layers. Two scenes stand out,both a testament to this fine writer's incomparable skill with character and words--the scene when Jack confronts Terese about her baby, showing his darkness, and the fire scene, showing his redemption. Nobody does it better than BJHoff. This book reflects the skill of a genuine craftsman of words, a writer with heart and soul. I'll read anything she writes, no matter how long before it appears in print.

If only B J Hoff could write faster! But at long last, I read this sequel to Cloth of Heaven, and it was great! Her characters always reach out and grab you by the throat! And what an ending! A real surprise, and a breathtaking one, too. What's next, B J?
