来自出版社的简介
“Because you’re worth rescue.” The unrelenting third installment in the Murphy Shepherd series from New York Times bestselling author Charles Martin.
Murphy Shepherd’s last rescue mission very nearly cost him his life. He’d like nothing more than to stay close to his wife and daughters for a while. But Bones’s nemesis must be stopped, and there are so many who still need to know they are worth rescuing.
As the cat-and-mouse game moves into the open, Murphy is tested at every turn—both physically and mentally. Then the unthinkable happens: his beloved mentor and friend is taken. Gone without a trace.
Murphy lives by the mantra that love always shows up. But how can he rescue Bones when he has no leads?
With heart-stopping clarity, The Record Keeper explores the true cost of leaving the ninety-nine to find the one.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The adrenaline-pumping third entry in Martin's Murphy Shepherd series (after The Letter Keeper) explores human depravity and the healing power of love. Shepherd, a secret operative who moonlights as a popular novelist (under a pseudonym, of course), has worked for years with his mentor Bones to take down pedophiles and free victims of sex-trafficking (as Bones phrases it: "It's why God put us on planet earth"). They have made an unstoppable team, but Bones has kept something from his mentee: Bones's evil twin brother, Frank. Bones and Frank spent much of their youth in an orphanage run by sexually abusive priests, and decades later, Bones and Shepherd must deal with the disastrous consequences that trauma wrought on Frank. When Frank kidnaps Bones, Shepherd enlists a team of hackers to stop Frank before he destroys everything for which they've worked. Though the prose is plain, there's potent commentary on the prevalence of sexual abuse in the church and its devastating effects on the victims. Series fans will snap this up.

Another wonderful Charles Martin book.
Martin’s books never fail to delight. The characters are rich and well defined, the story inspiring and I am left fulfilled but eager to read the next book.
Outstanding series of books
Outstanding,and keeps your attention
A beautiful ending
Charles Martin has done it again. The life lesson he imparts is done so skillfully , you do t know until the end that it was actually done. I knew nothing about human trafficking before I started this trilogy, and then learned more than I ever wanted to know. Each book of the Murphy Shephard trilogy is worth reading, and enjoying. Simply superb.
