The Shattered Vigil by Patrick W. Carr
(Bethany House; ISBN 9780764213472; ebook ISBN 9781441265470; $15.99)
The INSPY Board says that Carr’s “command of multiple characters and settings brought together the genres of fantasy and mystery in a satisfying journey.” In The Shattered Vigil, victory over the dark forces should have guaranteed safety for the continent. Instead, Willet and the rest of the Vigil discover they’ve been outsmarted by those seeking to unleash the evil that inhabits the Darkwater. One of the Vigil is missing, and new attacks have struck at the six kingdoms’ ability to defend themselves. Worse, a deadly new threat has emerged—assassins hunting the Vigil, men and women who cannot be seen until it’s too late. To thwart the perilous new risk, the church makes the drastic decision to safeguard the Vigil by taking the surviving members into protective custody. But there are secrets only the Vigil can unearth, and so Pellin makes the heart-wrenching choice to oppose the church in a race to turn back the evil that threatens an entire continent.
