The Lesser Sin by D.B. Corey
AT WHAT COST, VENGEANCE?
He murdered her sister and the courts set him free. Now just one thing stands between CIA sniper Hanna Braver and the justice she demands: Her Catholic Faith. Her love of family clashes with her love of God, and if she pulls the trigger to commit murder, will God forgive her yet again? Or will hypocrisy condemn her to Hell. Her Immortal Soul hangs in the balance.

Author’s Bio
DB Corey lives in the Baltimore area with his lovely wife Maggie, an offish Chocolate Lab named Murphy, and a sleepy American foxhound, aptly named Dozer. After a rather uninspired stint in college, he spent twelve years with the U.S. Naval Reserves flying aircrew aboard a Navy P-3 Orion sub-hunter chasing down Russian subs. During that time, he began a career in data processing, or as it’s known today—Information Technology. He began his writing career in his mid-50s.
My Review
5 stars
Hanna Braver is a sniper for the CIA. Although she is very religious, so has no problem killing people during a time of war. But when she returns from Afghanistan, she returns home to the torture and murder of her sister. If that wasn’t bad enough, the man that killed her sister is left free. Hanna is now torn. She has her CIA handler that has plans for her. She has her family and everything that has been thrown to the wind. And then there is God. How could he abandon her sister in her time of need? How can she kill the one that needs to die if it is against God’s word?
This is an amazing story. Hanna is a sniper and kills people for her job but it is justified since it is during a time of war. But, in a time of peace, the man that killed her sister needs to be put down and Hanna is torn with killing is against the Lord. But there is so much more happening than just this internal battle.
I really loved this book. It makes you think about the injustice of the world, vigilante justice, and how important a belief system can be for a person. There is no cliff hanger but I love how there is the possibility of more books to come.
I really enjoyed this book and recommend everyone check it out. You will not be disappointed.
I received The Lesser Sin from the author for free. This has in no way influenced my opinion of this book.
