5.0 out of 5 stars A must read!, Mar 23 2004
This review is from: Ekaterina (Paperback)
Once I started reading Ekaterina, I couldn't put it down! The book is an enticing combination of gripping characters, foreign setting, and an intriguing plot. In short, this book has it all.

Kat Moore, orphan, travels to Russia to search for relatives and uncover the mystery surrounding her heritage. Though raised by her grandfather, Kat has little knowledge of her family history. Whenever the subject came up, the adults in her life became tight-lipped and secretive, telling her she was too young to know or that it was a dangerous subject to discuss.

When a Russian monk she's never even heard of mails her a key with no note of explanation, she decides to visit Russia and search for the answers her family has withheld from her for years. Little does she know that she's become a pawn in an international smuggling operation. From the moment she steps off the plane, she is shadowed by Russian authorities and criminals alike. Only by relying on her faith and her wits can she hope to accomplish her mission and leave Russia alive.

Eileen Key, Book Reviewer
American born Ekaterina Moore, an adoption coordinator, travels to Russia in search of her own family history after she receives a package from a monk containing a mysterious key. Kat's grandfather reared her following her parents' death, but kept closely guarded secrets. The key unlocks her determination to find out what lies in the past. However, one step through customs embroils Kat in an adventure of intrigue and danger. The Russian FSB agent Captain Vadeem Spasonov believes her to be entangled with a smuggling group. His decision to oust her from the country makes Kat dig her heels in to stay. Only God and His protection keep Kat from jail and possible death.

This novel contains many twists and turns. Once the reader becomes familiar with the Russian character names it is an interesting story. Romance grows quickly because of the heightened danger and the similar needs of the heroine and her hero. Downs and Warren are familiar with Russia and provide a realistic setting. The plot unfolds in a believable manner to give the reader a real sense of satisfaction. Ekaterina is a book that will hook you and you will not want to put down.

5.0 out of 5 stars "KAT" STRUGGLES TO FIND HER PAST IN RUSSIA TODAY, Feb 15 2004
By 
Gail K Kroll "ECLECTIC READER AND LISTENER" (Northbrook, Illinois United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Ekaterina (Paperback)
Wow! What an intriguing and exciting way to spend two or three days of reading without being able to put a book down! (So only read it if you have the time!) Deeply spiritual in a country (Russia) known for its aethistic past these two protagonists meet and wonder if indeed their future might intersect no matter what reality seems to predict for them. "Kat" is searching for her past heritage while trying to stay alive from terrorists trying to rob Mother Russia of her treasures. Vadeem is an FSB agent (modern day KGB) strugging to keep Kat alive while desperately trying NOT to fall under her charms. Both Ms. Downs (an adoption agent who has traveled extensively through the country,) and Ms. Warren (a former missionary for eight years there,) weave an intriguing and romantically suspenseful tale.
