I know Susan Page Davis from posting on ShoutLife and Edgy Christian Fiction Lovers and since the title was intriguing, I decided to order Witness. I was not disappointed. The plot twists kept coming. I enjoyed the read tremendously.
One day when Petra Wilson was out on her back deck, throwing a toy to her beloved golden retriever Mason, she turned to look toward her neighbor's house and saw him strangle a woman. She's sure she just witnessed a murder. But the police don't find a body, and her neighbor Rex Harwood is thought at least by one officer to be an upstanding citizen. Petra fears the police think she's a kook. The thing I liked about Petra as a character was her tenacity and her need to see justice done.
Now her dangerous neighbor is aware that Petra tried to turn him in and she fears she may need protection. Wanting to get away, she goes to visit her sisters just in time for the grand opening of their gift shop and meets private detective Joe Tarleton who's office is next to their shop. Petra hires Joe to look into the murder and sparks start to fly, sparks of attraction between them, that is.
However someone breaks into Petra's home and poisons Mason. Petra rushes the dog to the vet and the animal survives. Then while she's sleeping, someone breaks in and turns the gas jets on her stove on. The killer is now after her, but the police think she carelessly dropped a household poison into the food and left the gas jets on. It's obvious to Joe that he's not able to guard Petra 24 hours a day, in fact he seems to always be one step behind this killer.
