Review: False Prophet (Windy Ridge Legal Thriller #4) by Rachel Dylan

About the Book

When an arsonist destroys Windy Ridge Community Church, Pastor Dan is shaken to the core. He calls on attorney Olivia Murray and her boyfriend Grant Baxter to help secure a place for worship services. Shockingly, the City of Windy Ridge denies the church’s application to use the civic center, and Olivia brings a lawsuit to protect the church’s constitutional rights.

During this already challenging time for the Windy Ridge community, an outside pastor decides to open a place of worship within the city limits. People begin flocking to the young charismatic preacher especially since Windy Ridge Community Church lost its building. Olivia worries that this new and radical approach to faith will lead people astray, but with each passing day, his popularity continues to grow.

When the police make a surprise arrest in the church arson, the battle lines are drawn across Windy Ridge. Alliances are shaken and relationships are tested like they’ve never been before. The forces of darkness are working overtime to shake the faith of the believers. Can Olivia and Grant stand up for their faith and prevail in the battle of good versus evil?

MY THOUGHTS

This book was so good. I was super excited about this new installment in one of my favorite series. It did not disappoint. It's just as good as I remember the previous ones being. It's been a few years since I read book three, but I was able to dive right back in. Didn't miss a beat at all. I loved seeing what Olivia, Grant, Pastor Dan, and Nina Marie were up to now.

The ultimate fight between good and evil is still going on in Windy Ridge. A new church has moved into town and become quite popular, all the while preaching false doctrine. It seems rather convenient that the Windy Ridge Community Church burns to the ground in an apparent arson attack and their new members start flocking to this new church. Could there be something sinister going on with this new church? Could they be behind the arson? But we can't forget about Optimism, the New Age company that's been out to get the church for years. Is the culprit an old foe or a new enemy, a wolf in sheep's clothing?

I was glued to the pages, desperate to figure out what was going on. The spiritual battles were gripping and intense. It's a very timely and important read that I highly recommend. Start with book one and you'll be hooked. This book wraps up nicely, but I really hope there are more stories to come. I love these characters and am so invested in the fight for Windy Ridge.
