The King's Mercy

Without fail, Benton's novels promise to be an immersive experience through a gritty and relatable world that simply builds itself around you. Her characters are real, her settings are memorable, and the sagas that they weave are rich, moving, and utterly satisfying. 'The King's Mercy' is no exception. A cast of characters unfolds like a beautiful tapestry, but quickly unravels with each page's turn until you're left holding onto a single thread. Heartache, loss, intrigue, and frustrations abound, but always balanced by the hope, faith, and of course mercy, that shine brighter as darkness closes in. I loved the biblical account woven through this story as well - very creative! This is a tale that is sure to sweep you away! [I received a complimentary copy of this book from the publisher.
