Indelible


In a clash of light and darkness, can courage prevail?

Rescuing a toddler from the jaws of a mountain lion, Trevor MacDaniel, a high-country outfitter , sets in motion events he can’t foresee. His act of bravery entwines his life with gifted sculptor Natalie Reeve—and attracts a grim admirer.

Trevor’s need to guard and protect is born of tragedy, prompting his decision to become a search and rescue volunteer. Natalie’s gift of sculpting comes from an unusual disability that seeks release through her creative hands. In each other they see strength and courage as they face an incomprehensible foe.

When a troubled soul views Trevor as archangel and adversary, Redford’s peaceful mountain community is threatened. Together with Police Chief Jonah Westfall, Trevor presses his limits to combat the menace who targets the most helpless and innocent.


The author does a good job in the beginning of building tension and suspense. You have the "edge of your seat" feeling and know "something wicked this way comes".  Unfortunately for me it all fell flat as the suspense became more psychological and did not go anywhere and I began to lose interest. There were too many side stories going on that were left unresolved, and the ending came abruptly. As this is book two, hopefully the author will revisit some of the characters.  I enjoyed the first book, Indivisible, more than this one and will pick up the next book.

Kristen Heitzmann’s gift of crafting stories has ranked her as the award-winning and best-selling author of two historical series and twelve contemporary, psychological and romantic suspense novels including Indivisible. As an artist and musician, Kristen lives in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with her husband and a continuous stream of extended family, various pets, and wildlife.

Wouldn't it be nice if after receiving the advance copy, do you get a opportunity to let publishers know your opinion so they can "fix" things up.

Sorry this one didn't work too well for you Nise. I find that happens a lot with the second book in a series.

I'm sorry that this one fell flat. Like you I really enjoyed the first one and almost downloaded this one when it was offered as a free Kindle book.
