The second in the Chicago Warriors series, Gripped by Fear is a not only a good mystery but also an exploration of the many challenges faced by today’s law enforcement officers. It will be of special interest to readers who enjoy books with a strong Christian theme.

John M. Wills, a veteran of thirty five years in law enforcement, both as a Chicago Police Officer and FBI Agent, writes with a keen insight and deep understanding of the criminal justice system. His police procedural novels are unique in that they are written on two contrasting levels--the gritty, often times life threatening police incidents, and the many moral dilemmas faced by law enforcement officers in the pursuit of their duties. In Gripped By Fear, the author has succeeded in creating police officers who are not amoral super heroes, but decent human beings, doing their best under the most difficult of circumstances. Gripped By Fear is a great read!
