Reader praise for Poison Town ★★★★★ Creston Mapes may be my new favorite suspense/thriller writer! In Poison Town, there was not a minute that I could set the story down. I had to read straight through the nonstop action, suspense, and danger to my favorite reporter and his family. Can't wait to start book three! ★★★★★ Another Great Book. This is a great series. Beside the great morals in this story is an exciting tale of corporate murder and the callous nature of greed itself. Great book. Can't wait to read the next. ★★★★★ 2nd book of series I’m enjoying. I’m thankful I came across the Crittendon Files series. With COVID-19 lockdown I was wondering if I would find a clean series to continue my shelter in place. Author Creston Mapes delivers. The fact it is Christian is a big plus but it isn’t cheesy Christian either. I plan to check out other books by Mapes outside of the Crittendon Files series. ★★★★★ For positive excitement in a mystery novel you can't beat this one! ★★★★★ Corruption and Deceit with a Twist of Religion. This was a great read. I have not read other "Christian/mysteries" before, and I enjoyed this very much . . . The reader is caught in a world of conspiracy, greed, danger, fraud, love, and forgiveness. The book is full of twists and turns, the outcome of which will impact the next novel in The Crittendon Files. I recommend it and am anxious for the next book. ★★★★★ Captivating . . . Honestly, I could not put this mysterious novel down. Mapes is a Christian writer who doesn't preach. He just gives the reader values or morals which is rare in today's society, I can't wait to read another book by him. Review "A wild roller-coaster ride!
