Admittedly,
I have always been a fan of tween fiction…can’t get enough of it. Mary
Hamilton’s debut book, Hear No Evil, didn’t fail to keep me entertained. The
book begins with poor Brady McCaul being left at church camp where he knows
absolutely no one. And to make matters worse his mother informs him that she no
longer wants him living with her and her new husband and won’t be returning for
him. His estranged father will pick him up at the end of the week. The book
deals with bullying, having a handicap, pre-teen crushes and how God is with
you during all the storms of life. Mom’s reason for leaving him isn’t revealed
until the very end, leaving the reader in suspense through the entire novel. I have
been to church camps in east Texas and Mary’s descriptions of the smells,
sights and sounds were spot on. In conclusion, I would recommend this book to
anyone who enjoys a good story about trusting God when there’s no one else you
can trust.
Hear No Evil will be available on November 5, 2013
