JustRead Tours Blog Tour: The Dark Guest by Sarah Hamaker

 

 

Welcome to the Blog + Review Tour for The Dark Guest by Sarah Hamaker, hosted by JustRead Publicity Tours!



Title: The Dark Guest 
Series: The Cold War Legacy #1 
Author: Sarah Hamaker 
Publisher: Seshva Press LLC 
Release Date: May 15, 2022 
Genre: Christian, Romantic Suspense 

The Cold War is over, but The Wolf is still at the door. 

When Violet Lundy isn’t cleaning rooms at Happy Hills Assisted Living Facility, she loves spending her free time with resident Rainer Kopecek. Hearing his stories of the dangerous life he led behind the Iron Curtain in East Berlin makes her own life seem more tolerable. But when Rainer is found dead and his room in disarray, Violet suspects foul play. 

Dr. Henry Silverton lives among his books, teaching and writing about the Cold War. A letter about an East German traitor known only as “The Wolf” propels Henry out of academia and into Violet’s life. Together, they embark on a perilous quest to uncover the truth about Rainer’s death and the traitor’s identity. 

Can Violet and Henry uncover the secrets of the past before one of them ends up as The Wolf’s next victim?



I have come to truly enjoy Christian Romance Suspense novels. The Dark Guest by Sarah Hamaker is Book 1 in The Cold War Legacy series. I have read a couple of other books by Sarah Hamaker and have enjoyed her books, so I was very excited to read this book. 

Violet Lundy loves her job at Happy Hills Assisted Living Facility where she cleans the rooms. Even more so, she enjoys spending time with the residents when she isn't on duty. Rainer Kopecek is one of her favorite residents and she truly enjoys the stories of his life in East Berlin during dangerous times. Violet is devasted when she finds Rainer dead in his room and she suspects it was foul play. Dr. Henry Silverton is a local professor who teaches and writes about the Cold War. Violet and Dr. Henry decide to team up to find out what really happened to Rainer. Dr. Henry had recently received a letter from Rainer in regards to someone named "Wolf". Dr. Henry and Violet feel the pressure is on to figure out who "Wolf" is before they are possible Victims of the "Wolf" Will Dr. Henry and Violet discover what really happened to Rainer? Will there be a Love connection between Dr. Henry and Violet? 

WOW, I LOVE a book that gets my attention from the first chapter and this book did that. The author does a FANTASTIC job at bringing the reader into the story and making them feel like they are back in the History of the Cold War. I really love how Violet loves the Residents and spends time with them in her free time. Dr. Henry is a wonderful character in the book who is invested into finding out how Rainer died and shares the letter with Violet. The way the relationship and romance between Violet and Dr. Henry is slowly growing is wonderful to read. I enjoy slow relationships and not "love at first sight" romances. The Twist and Turns in this book are soo exciting and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the book. I HIGHLY recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Christian Romance Suspense. GREAT BOOK!

Wow, thanks for the review. I'm so glad you enjoyed The Dark Guest. Writing about the Cold War's implications for today was such fun for me. I hope you'll check out book 2, The Dark Atonement, out now. The conclusion of the trilogy will be out in early 2023.
