On the run from the murderer of her best friends, missionary Gracie Benson is all alone in Siberia. What she doesn't know is that she has in her possession a medical secret that will save millions of lives -- or cost hers. Trying to keep her alive is an FSB agent, a man pursued by his own demons, including a killer who destroyed his father's life. He and Gracie find themselves in a decades-old mystery of betrayal and Cold War secrets. Only with the help of their friends -- a group of Americans and Russians committed to freedom -- can they outwit the old guard . . . and save Gracie's secret, as well as her life.

 | Tantalizingly written novel of intrigue, friendship, and loyalty Mar 27, 2007 |
Gracie is an American missionary serving in Russia who doesn't think she's very good at her job because she hasn't led anyone to Christ. Only days before her visa expires and she must leave the country, she discovers two friends and fellow missionaries have been murdered. Now she must rely on FSB (formerly known as the KGB) Captain Vicktor to protect her from becoming the next victim of his arch nemesis, The Wolf.
This is a wonderful tale of suspense that is filled with beautiful moments of Christian discovery and growth. Susan May Warren is a wonderful writer who transports her audience into the heart of Russia so skillfully that your senses are nearly overcome.

| This book kept me up all night (when I should have been studying for mid terms)!!! Gracie is a missionary who felt as though she had done a horrible job. FSB agent Vicktor Shubnikov is like another young Russian man. There is a killer on the loose with motives that date back to the cold war. Gracie is caught in the middle of it all, along with a very handsome Russian agent. As the book goes along secrets from both their past and Gracie's friend's past are uncovered to relieve a sinister plot. But at the same time the Russian agent and Gracie find strength and comfort in each other as they cope with their past. This story also teaches the important lesson of forgivness. When you start this book there is no putting it down. It may sound all mushy- gushy, but heck no! This is definitely a romance/ suspense book.If you pass this book up you're missing out on alot!!!!! | | | | Another 5 star thriller by Susan May Warren Jun 13, 2006 |
Gracie Benson feels like a failure, after 2 years in Russia she has failed to lead a single soul to the Lord. Just before her scheduled departure she walks into a murder scene and her life will never be the same......in fact it may soon be over.
Enter Vicktor Shubinikov..FSB agent. Is he on Gracie's side or her worst enemy. Why do people keep turning up dead? Who is the Wolf?
In Sheep"s Clothing is a first rate thriller and Susan having lived in Russia adds a realistic view to the story. I highly recomend this book. | | | | If you like romantic suspense. . . Jan 17, 2006 |
| You will love this book! Susan May Warren writes a great suspense story, zipping you along with powerful word choices and electric, tension-filled dialogue. When her heroine, American missionary Gracie Benson, meets Vicktor Shubnikov, a kind-hearted, down-on-his-luck KGB agent, the story becomes a snowball barreling downhill, grabbing your heart and making you feel like you are in Siberia right along with them, running for your life from a serial killer. It's also a wonderful love story. It's so good you will want to read it again, more slowly the second time! | | | | An exciting tale of mystery, suspense, and romance Dec 16, 2005 |
Feeling depressed and like a total failure, missionary Gracie Benson is preparing to leave her assignment in post-Cold War Russia and return to the United States. Though she worked very hard throughout her mission, she did not win any souls and was not even able to lead her best friend to the Lord. Discouraged but not hopeless, Gracie's biggest test is about to begin. However, her departure is anything but smooth as she soon finds herself embroiled in some very political intrigue. She is not only stranded in the middle of Siberia but her friends begin turning up dead, enemies are professing to be friendly, and cherished companions betray her trust.
Enter Vicktor Nickolaiovich Shubnikov, who inadvertently sends sparks flying between them from the moment they meet. Vicktor, formerly with the KGB, is now known as the kinder, gentler FSB agent dedicated to making the Soviet Union a safer member of the world community. He is on a mission of his own, though it has nothing to do with winning souls. It has to do with tracking down an enemy known only as The Wolf, so named for the vicious way he stalks and kills his prey. Vicktor and Gracie cross paths when her supervisors are found murdered, and The Wolf is the primary suspect.
Christy Award finalist Susan May Warren was herself a missionary in Russia, and her unique insights lend a special flavor of authenticity to this exciting tale of mystery, suspense and romance. Once you sort through the myriad of characters introduced early in the story, complete with unpronounceable Russian names and nicknames, the tale moves along quickly to a compelling conclusion. Throughout, the reader is challenged to ask and answer significant questions that face believers and non-believers alike. "How could a loving God allow good people to come to such a horrible end?" "Why is it so difficult for some to accept Jesus?" "How much credit or blame can we take when we 'fail' or 'succeed' in our mission?" In addition, there are study questions provided at the end for further discussion.
IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING is an excellent novel that will keep you guessing until the very end.
