Covert Past: Hope Island Securities Series Book Six by Mary Alford

 Book Description:  It takes a spy to know one. . .

As the newest member of the Hope Island Securities team, Boone Langston knows a spy just by looking into their eyes. And Ellie's reflects awful things . . . just like his. He’d spent most of his military career as a Navy SEAL working for the CIA’s Special Operations Unit. And the past three years trying to forget everything he’d done.

When he accidentally runs into Ellie in front of the Hopeful Coffeehouse, the look in her eyes, the constant scanning of the foot traffic in front of the shop, all seem to hint she is living the nightmare as well . . . until Ellie's past catches up with her removing all doubt.

My Thoughts:  If you've read Mary Alford's books you know she's the queen of christian thrillers and suspense.

I loved this story because it wasn't scary and the mystery was great.  

There's some romance and a whole lotta mystery.  

Of course, it was truly difficult to figure out who the "bad" guy was.  As with all of Mary Alford's books there are twists and turns that can make the readers head spin.  I love that aspect of her stories.

This is another FANTASTIC read by Mary Alford.  And it's a short read.  I read it in a couple of hours.
