Summary:

Questions are dangerous but answers can be deadly.

Callie’s world will be lost to war – unless she can unlock the magic of an ancient manuscript. She and her friends will be sent to the front line. Many of them won’t come back. When a secret order tells her she can bring peace by reading from a book, it seems an easy solution - too easy. Callie soon finds herself hunted, trapped between desperate allies and diabolical enemies. The Order is every bit as ruthless as the paranormal Cadaveri.

Callie can only trust two people – her best friend and her ex-marine bodyguard. And they are on different sides. She must decide: how far will she go to stop a war?

Dare she read this book? What’s the price - and who pays it?

My Thoughts:

The Cover: Unconvicted has a very dark cover.  A man runs from a well lit building into the dark night. Definitely not a cover that would have screamed, "You have to read me!!" But I don't always choose my reads based on cover alone.

The Plot: Unconvicted had an amazing story. Although I was alittle afraid at first that I would not get into it, I was hooked before I even realized. The story moves alone at a good speed, with enough details to draw you in. Just when you thought the story was done, something even more interesting or intense would happen. I read enjoyed the court room drama and piecing together the clues.

The Characters: All of the characters were very well written. I loved our main characters, Jack and Lara. I found that very quickly into the story, you could feel empathy for Jack. I really liked that he didn't just accept everything for what it appeared to be.Jack's father was very cute and I thought the love and care he showed for his dad was do endearing.

Was it Worth Reading: Yes, very much so! I couldn't read it fast enough! I really enjoyed Unconvicted, with all of it's unexpected twists and turns, and hope to read more of Jack Kowalski. I highly recommend Unconvicted to readers of suspense and drama, and give it 4 out of 5 crossbows.
