The first few chapters of Freedom's Child set up the characters in the story: Rough-around-the-edges "Freedom" who is currently in witness protection for her association in her husband Mark's murder. Her bent-on-revenge brother-in-law who was just released from prison after eighteen years in being wrongly accused of his brother Mark's murder. Mark and Matthew's ne'er -do- well family who are also seeking revenge for Mark. And Mason and Rebekah, Freedom's birth children who were adopted by religious fanatics. Mason escapes the Third Day Adventists sect, but Rebekah stays with the family and has now gone missing.
These sets of characters come together in Goshen, Kentucky for a perfect storm. Mason is looking for his sister, Freedom is looking for her daughter (they both realize Rebekah has gone missing after her absence from Facebook) and Matthew and his family who are looking for Freedom.
I loved the drama of this novel. The back and forth between each of the characters storylines, the real twist in Mark's murder, and the fire and brimstone ending to the Third Day Adventists cult. No chapter in this book disappoints.
