Review – Proof

Jordyn Redwood in her new book, “Proof” Book One in the Bloodline Trilogy series published by Kregel Publications brings us into the life of Dr. Lilly Reeves.

From the back cover:   After DNA evidence clears a suspected serial rapist of grisly crimes, ER physician Dr. Lilly Reeves takes matters into her own hands.  Police detectives think she’s a danger to the case, and her colleges worry her obsession will be detrimental to her health.  But Lilly can’t stop, even if it means digging into a dark mystery that science cannot comprehend.  Alone and on the run, Lilly wonders:  is there any proof that will bring a monster to justice?

Acclaimed as “a rollercoaster of a story,” Proof debuts the twists and turns that make the Bloodline Trilogy an undeniable adventure for all fiction fans.

If you ever read anything from the late Michael Crichton then you know you was famous for starting with an area that was believed to be foolproof and then showing that something went horrible wrong.  That premise is exactly what Jordyn Redwood brings out in “Proof”.  We see so many police shows where they rely so heavily on DNA evidence to bring the suspect to justice.  And it always works.  Not so in “Proof”.   Dr. Lilly Reeves has the DNA evidence and they bring the suspect to trial and the evidence gets him off because it doesn’t match.  Something has gone horribly wrong and Dr. Reeves must figure out what it is before this serial rapist tries again.

I think Jordyn Redwood is an extremely talented writer who really knows how to tell a story that will grab you and keep you flipping pages until you find out who did it.  Not only does Dr. Reeves go down blind alleys in her efforts to prove who the rapist is she also becomes a target putting her life in deadly danger.  “Proof” is a very exciting book that will keep you engrossed in the characters as Ms. Redwood puts them through their paces.   This is a wonderful series and I am glad I discovered Jordyn Redwood.  I am so looking forward to the next book in this series
