"Water Walker" by Ted Dekker is the second book in the Outlaw Series. "Eyes Wide Open" being the first which I have already read and reviewed. The two books do not need to be read in order and are written in completely different styles. Where in Eyes, I was never really sure what was going on and that added to the excitement; in Walker, I am aware and that also adds to the excitement. The two books share characters but are not the main characters in the other book.
In Walker, Alice is kidnapped by a man claiming to be her father. He takes her to the compound where he lives with his wife, son, and prophet. The "Christian" cult is portrayed as a bunch of kooks and an opportunist/scam artist. However, the reader should keep in mind this is a Christian novel and at the same time a Dekker, so things are not always as they seem. I loved this book. I liked it better than the first. Dekker is a hit or miss with me and this is definitely a hit. I received this book for free from Worthy Publishing.
