Highlighted Review: Dark Intercept By Andrews & Wilson

When dark forces rise, are faith and firepower enough?
On the eve of his medical retirement, Navy SEAL Jedidiah Johnson receives a frantic call from his estranged childhood best friend David Yarnell. David’s daughter has been kidnapped off the streets of Nashville in broad daylight. The police have no suspects and no leads. The only clue: the body of a dead priest left behind at the scene. With the clock ticking, David is growing desperate, as is his wife, Rachel . . . Jed’s first love.

Despite his painful history with David and Rachel, Jed agrees to help. But he’s spent his career as a door-kicking Navy SEAL, not an investigator. His presence immediately draws unwanted attention, creates friction with the local police, and triggers a mysterious attempt on his life. Just when he thinks things can’t get worse, it starts to happen again―the voices in his head, the nightmares, the visions. Dark memories and strange abilities, things he believed he’d left behind when he fled Nashville for the Navy at eighteen, begin to resurface.

Jed realizes that to save the missing girl, he must take a leap of faith and embrace the gifts he’s denied for all these years. To foil this dark intercept, he’ll need more than just his years as a SEAL operator, because he has no choice now but to take up arms and join the battle in the unseen spiritual warfare raging all around him. And there is far more at stake than just a missing girl: the world is not the place he thought it was―and he is not alone.

Follow the military heroes of The Shepherds series as they bring the power of light into the dark mystery of Sara Beth’s abduction.

I have to be honest, Dark Intercept A Shepard’s Series Novel is the kind of book I want to write. Dark Intercept starts with Jedidiah Johnson doing what he loves and was created to do. With his team hunting bad guys. Andrews and Wilson throws us into the deep end of the pool with full throttle action which as Christian action or thriller fans is what we want to read.

A + W created a protagonist in Jedidiah Johnson that feels fully realized, yet they leave enough of his back story out that I kept needing to turn the page to find out the next tidbit. The writing is seamless. I don’t know their writing routine and I can’t tell the difference from Andrews or Wilson’s scenes, chapters or however they split up the writing.

All I know is the writing is some of the best I’ve read. Dark Intercept feels like a combination of Frank Peretti’s This Present Darkness and Joel C Rosenberg’s Marcus Ryker series. This is the best book I’ve read this year and I’ve read some great books and if you want to read a book that is well written and glorifies God, I would start with Dark Intercept by the writing duo of Brian Andrews and Jeff Wilson. This is definitely a Buy The Hardcover At 12:01 and expect to lose sleep to be the first one to buy it.
