In Blood Red Deceit, author Steve Rush masterfully weaves a gripping narrative around the investigation into the murder of Pastor Phillip Robles. As protagonist Ridge Warner delves into the complexities of the case, readers are drawn into a web of deceit, intrigue, and unanswered questions.
 
Rush artfully crafts a tale filled with suspense and mystery, keeping readers on the edge of their seats from start to finish. The cast of characters, including Phillip's wife Patsy, church secretary Suzette Faraday, and police officer Reid Penbrook, are intricately developed, each with their own motives and secrets.
 
What sets Blood Red Deceit apart is its ability to keep readers guessing until the very end. With twists and turns at every corner, Rush expertly navigates through a maze of clues and red herrings, leaving readers eagerly turning pages in search of the truth. It's indeed a box of intense suspense from start to finish.
 
One of the most compelling aspects of the book is its exploration of themes such as betrayal, redemption, and the complexity of human nature. Through Ridge's journey, readers are forced to confront their own preconceptions and biases, ultimately leading to a deeper understanding of the characters and their motivations.
 
With its intricate plot, well-developed characters, and unexpected twists, it's a book that will keep you guessing until the very end. Rush has crafted a true page-turner that will leave readers eagerly awaiting his next installment. It is exceptionally well edited and error-free. There is possibly no criticism for this book except that it has the ability to keep readers glued to their reading devices longer than anticipated. This book definitely deserves a rating of 5 out of 5 stars.
 
Overall, Blood Red Deceit is a must-read for fans of mystery and suspense. The book contains some gruesome violent scenes; thus, it is not suitable for underage readers or people uncomfortable with violence.
