REVIEWS for RAPTOR 6
Publishers Weekly
“Trust and betrayal are the themes of Christy Award–winning Kendig’s (Wolfsbane) fast-paced military suspense novel, the first in a new series featuring Capt. Dean Watters and his team. Deployed in Afghanistan, Watters and his team are unstoppable. But Zarah Zarrick, daughter of a retired general and now a Christian missionary teacher of young Afghan girls, is also unstoppable. She has the technical skills the Afghan terrorists covet, and to Watters’s dismay, she trusts that God will protect her. Separately and together, they must learn whom they can trust. As the stakes are raised higher and higher, Zarah and Watters stand against the wiles of terrorists and the skewed values of supposed friends to prove themselves to God, each other, and themselves.

The extraordinary Ronie Kendig writes another gritty and suspenseful page-turner. Raptor 6 took me to the darkest corners of Afghanistan with one of the most deeply disturbed characters I’ve met in a book. Though Captain Dean Watters carries the weight of the world, he doesn’t let his past stand in the way when it comes to protecting the innocent—his heroism is absolute, and Watters is unforgettable. Kendig will take you to the edge of the world and make you wonder if you’ll come back alive! ~~Elizabeth Goddard, Carol Award-winning author of Treacherous Skies, Riptide, and Wilderness Peril.
The pages turned with speed as I raced to know how everything would resolve. The main storyline kept me glued, but the surprise hidden story brought me to tears.
