Banished Threads (Volume 3)
By Kaylin McFarren
A valuable art collection disappears turning a treasure-hunting duo into crime-stopping sleuths willing to risk their lives to vindicate family members in Kaylin McFarren's action-packed suspense novel, Banished Threads.
While vacationing at the stately Cumberforge Manor in Bellwood, England, Rachel Lyons and Chase Cohen attend an elegant dinner party hosted by her uncle, Paul Lyons, and his aristocratic wife, Sara. Before the evening ends, a priceless collection of Morris Graves's paintings are stolen from her uncle's popular gallery, throwing all suspicion onto his wife's missing granddaughter. Determined to clear Sloan Rafferty's name and, in the process, win Paul's favor, Chase scours the countryside looking for answers. In his absence, the police accuse Rachel's uncle of an unsolved murder and secrets surrounding her grandmother's death and the deaths of Sara's former husbands turn his wife into the most likely suspect. With the true villains hell-bent on destroying Paul Lyons and his family, solving both crimes while ensuring her uncle's freedom not only endangers Rachel's life but that of her unborn child.
Will Chase save them before the kidnappers enact their revenge or will the ultimate price be paid, as predicted by a vagabond fortuneteller?

MY REVIEW OF Banished Threads
Before Rachel
and Chase get married, they seek the approval of Rachel’s Uncle Paul. When they
arrive at his estate, they are thrown in the middle of an art heist/kidnapping scheme.
As Chase helps the investigation, he begins to uncover long hidden secrets that
threaten to destroy Rachel’s family.
Talk about a
dysfunctional family, this was definitely one. I didn’t like the character of
Rachel. There was too much “woe is me” going on, and it made it hard for me to
feel sorry for her. I thought the story became more interesting once the
mysteries and secrets came along. I liked the different twists that were thrown
in. This was a good plot that kept me interested to the end. Having read all
three in this series, I liked the way it ended. It brought great closure to the
Rachel and Chase story. I definitely like this author’s writings and look
forward to her next series.
