Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Paige Rogers, the kindly librarian of Split Creek, Oklahoma, has a secret. She’s a former CIA agent, the sole survivor of an attack on her team during a covert mission in Angola. Paige thinks that Daniel Keary, their leader at the time, caused the deaths of her friends. Knowing that someone wants her dead, too, Paige has stayed hidden in her quaint, quiet Oklahoma town for the past seven years. But now, a stranger has come to town, and he’s asking a lot of questions. In addition to this, Keary has just announced his candidacy for governor of Oklahoma, and it’s time for him to finally destroy the major roadblock to his successful campaign—Paige. This masterfully crafted suspense novel immediately hooks the reader with a pervasive sense of imminent danger. A real page-turner, Breach of Trust is the first book in Mills’ faith-based Call of Duty series. --Shelley Mosley

A Page Turner
In this suspense-filled novel, Mills wraps in romance, a solid dose of character faith, and more than one plot twist.
Paige Rogers is the librarian in a small town in Oklahoma. On the surface, she's a smart, caring, Christian with good friends and the romantic interest of the high school's football coach. Underneath it all is a past no one would have expected. Once a former CIA agent, Paige was living her life in the fast lane until a covert mission went wrong and she nearly died. She was betrayed by their leader, threatened, and forced to start her life over. But new news surfaces about her past and she begins to wonder if her decision was the right one. Now she must confront the past and potentially lose everything she's worked so hard for in her new home. And she's tested to keep safe the ones she loves and unravel the clues that will expose the man behind the betrayal.
For my first Diann Mills book, I was impressed with her technique and the seamless flow of the story. It was a quick read and kept me interested.
BREACH OF TRUST
BREACH OF TURST by DiAnn Mills is an incredible page-turner. For those of you who like action and suspense along with your romance, this book is for you.
Paige Rogers, an ex-CIA operative, now lives as the Librarian in the small town of Split Creek, Oklahoma . . . but not by choice. Her choices were removed eight years ago by a mission gone wrong and an operative gone bad. Today, she does all she can to keep the regrets that haunt her at bay while carrying on a mild manner existence.
Miles Laird, football coach for the Split Creek Bobcats, knows there is more to Paige than meets the eye, and continues his plan to wear her down and make her admit she is as interested in him as he is in her.
When a stranger in town harasses Paige, she realizes the sleeping dog from her past has raised his ugly head again. Everyone around her will soon be a target unless she can smoke out her adversary and force him to make a wrong move. In the meantime, her heart is not cooperating. Her feelings for Miles run deep . . . deep enough to hurt him when he finds out the truth.
I can't even begin to touch on all the twists and turns in BREACH OF TRUST. It is a captivating story with suspense, intrigue, romance, and a pulling at your heart at the decisions Paige must make to keep those she loves safe. I anxiously await BREACH OF SECURITY in the Spring of 2010.
Imagine: A Christian CIA operative!
Breach of Trust by DiAnn Mills was an enjoyable Christian novel to read. There are several other reviewers on here who recap the story for you, so I'll just say what I liked about it or not.
I'm not sure how to classify this book other than the fact that it is a Christian novel. At my library it is marked as "Inspirational." Not sure where they got that. From the cover and positive reviews I saw before I read the book I thought there would be more suspense and action. But it is too distant from the action in emotion to say it is suspenseful. There is some romance too, but we come into the story not when two people meet, but after they have had a friendly, somewhat flirty relationship for a long while. And their relationship doesn't change much throughout, except for some subtle changes.
While the story moves along at a pace that holds enough of your attention to want to find out what happens - to finish the story - something holds it back. The point of view takes turns through two characters' perspectives. I think it takes away from the story a bit. There is not as much for the reader to guess at. We already know what each one is thinking - what their side of the story is. So there is not as much emotion, curiosity, a sense of the unknown....
I do like that this novel does not get preachy as many Christian evangelistic novels do. Most of the readers are going to be of this worldview already. So we can focus on the story, trusting the "good" characters to stay good, and knowing who the "bad" characters are. There is some redemption among the supporting cast, so to speak, and some character growth in the main characters, as they come to realize the blessings and sacrifices it will take to make their love continue.
Kudos to the author to create something other than the Christian romance that seems to dominate the Christian market, to do something other than the norm. Those are mostly easy, enjoyable reads, but I like to try something different as well. I was glad to have found this author and I hope she continues writing and creating more stories and scenarios to tickle our imaginations.
