Reviews For Laurel Dewey's PROTECTOR
"I couldn't put PROTECTOR down. Finished it last night and still am thinking about it. That is a sign of a
very well written book. Laurel's characters are so well developed that one seems to know them
intimately. Please tell me there's going to be a sequel to PROTECTOR. I didn't want it to end!"

D. Farris, Colorado

"I'm not usually a fan of psychological thrillers but I absolutely loved PROTECTOR. Laurel's writing style
is awesome and her dialogue is eloquent. The relationship between Detective Jane Perry and the child,
Emily, was unpredictable and always entertaining. I love Jane Perry! Love her! She's flawed and abrasive
but she's the only one I'd want protecting me if I was in trouble."

Glenna Jackson, Illinois

"People talk about page turners but PROTECTOR truly IS one. I didn't guess the big twist and was
shocked in the final pages. Totally cool! This would make such a great movie!"

Aaron Bright, Kansas


"PROTECTOR affected me on such a deep way, I can hardly explain it. Detective Jane Perry's
heartbreaking life moved me to tears more than once. She's one of the purest, most real characters I've
read in modern fiction in a long time. The way Laurel connected all the various characters and story
elements was effortless and awe inspiring. I want to read more and more of Laurel Dewey's writing."

Wow! I just finished Protector last night and it is a fantastic book! Protector is SO good on so many
levels. It's like poetry in places, the way Laurel Dewey writes. There's a depth to the writing that I rarely
see in fiction anymore. The deep, deep conflict and pain of the main character, Detective Jane Perry, is
so real. Laurel Dewey has created such a deeply woven story of people who strangely interlock. I loved
the relationship Jane Perry has with the child, Emily Lawrence. Their connection was beautiful and the
story that emerges out of their relationship is nothing short of profound.

On a more mundane side, Dewey effortlessly wraps up all loose ends in the story and does so in a
realistic manner. But the heart of Protector is Jane Perry and her often heart wrenching personal story
that kept me glued to the pages of the book. I didn't want it to end! And that, more than anything, gives
Protector a four star rating!!
