Publisher Description
A little girl goes missing and a sheriff will do anything to bring her home—even confront evil—in this classic tale of suspense from New York Times bestselling author Jana DeLeon.
In a tiny bayou town with far too many wicked secrets, the sudden disappearance of a six-year-old girl is a mystery Sheriff Holt Chamberlain is determined to solve. But teaming up with Alexandria Bastin is a complication he didn’t expect. Nor is he prepared to collide with the dark side of Cajun culture—and his own troubled past.
The frantic search leads them to a place said to hold magic, an eerie island where Alex is also working her charm on him. At one time, he’d been forced to leave her brokenhearted. And now, dangerously close to the truth, he’ll do anything to protect her from the evil that surrounds them—an evil that might hold the key to sending a little girl home.…

The Reckoning by Jana DeLeon
This was a great quick read! The characters were well written and developed. The suspense was just enough to keep you turning pages but not scare you. I did figure out who did it pretty early on but didn’t know the how if it. The story ended in a way that could indicate another book and series is imminent, and I can’t wait to read the next one if so!
