About the Author of Crossbones
Jesus and laughter have brought C.C. Warrens through some very difficult times in life, and she weaves both into every story she writes, creating a world of breath-stealing intensity, laugh-out-loud humor, and a sparkle of hope. Writing has been a slowly blossoming dream inside her for most of her life until one day it spilt out onto the pages that would become her first published book.
If she’s not writing, she’s attempting to bake something—however catastrophic that might be—or she’s enjoying the beauty of the outdoors with her husband. One of the many things she’s learned since she started this journey is that the best way to write a book is to go on a long stroll with her husband. That is when the characters—from their backgrounds to the moments that make them laugh or bubble over with anger—come to life.

My Thoughts on Crossbones
Crossbones is book six in a wonderful suspense/thriller series that you’re going to want to buckle up and read all of. I’m a huge fan! You want to read the whole series, though not just this one.
Love! All the good things to say about this one! The mystery is top-notch. The characters are amazing and really call out to you. You either love them or hate them; there is no ambivalence allowed! It moves quickly.
I love the family secrets as a main theme.
All families have secrets. It’s whether they’re the dark ones or more harmless ones that comes to play here. What are we willing to bury and hide? And what will we do to keep them buried and out of the light?
Love the humor! Love the mystery. And, oh my, you think this is a normal mystery that you can have figured out from the beginning, but it’s not! It’s gonna twist and turn and then flip upside down on you!
Christian suspense! Yes, it stays faith-based and clean. I value that so much. I don’t know about you, but I don’t like to read books that I have to sharpie out words and black out paragraphs in case my kids grab it and try to read. Through the years, as my kids have gotten older and I’ve shared books with them, I’ve gotten even more vigilant about what I read. This fits my bill. It’s not graphic even though it has some crimes and such that you wouldn’t want a little child to read, but it’s not something that I wouldn’t let my young adults read. This series is a hit for them and for them. It’s available for my older teens to read. Our rule for books like this is that if you can drive, you can read it.
