"Imogene's Message: A Thriller of Extreme Prejudice," by Christine Sherborne, is suspense/thriller novel where the main conflict is incited by religious prejudice. The main character, Imogene, is a young Guardian of Avebury Circle in a small village, a role that entails performing healing ceremonies with power passed down through the female lineage. Unfortunately, the Phineas Priesthood, a local religious splinter group, is on a witch hunt, and Imogene's family is a target.The story involves lots of action with supernatural elements incorporated. It really is  unlike any thriller I've read before, in a good way. Sherborne writes in a way that is descriptive and emotional yet concise, so the action scenes aren't lost among the words. I was particularly impressed by the way Sherborne characterizes the complex relationships in the book. Overall, if you're looking to read a fresh thriller unlike any thriller you've ever read, this book is a must-read.
