Alice Ringwald can’t remember most of her childhood. At thirteen, a man kidnaps her, saying her mother wants to see her. The stranger takes Alice or Eden as her birth mother calls her, to a remote compound in a distant state surrounded by swamps and a lake. There is only one road in and out, and that way is guarded. Alice is trapped in a bizarre cult marked by brainwashing, violence and intimidation. Time passes and no one comes to her rescue. And yet Alice senses love lies just beyond her reach. Will the FBI or Stephen Carter, the strange ethereal visitor, rescue her before the villains execute their nefarious plot?
Water Walker is another action packed psychological thriller that will keep you glued to the pages. Although the plot sports unexpected twists and turns, the spiritual component is the most surprising and powerful. With themes of love, forgiveness, redemption and deliverance, this is one you won’t want to miss. Although Water Walker is part of The Outlaw Chronicles series, it is standalone with little real relationship to book one in the series.
