One Night in Tehran, Book I in the Titus Ray Thriller Series by Luana Ehrlich

 Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This is the second series I've started with this author. I find Titus to be not very personable, but willing to socialize for his job. He doesn't have much of a personal life, and it shows when he is asked to take medical leave. He has nowhere to go and ends up in Norman, Oklahoma, near a friend who got out of the Agency. Titus is just learning what it means to be a Christian, but finds it hard even to pray. His first experience in buying a Bible is to ask a woman who is looking to buy one for her study group. He buys the same one she does. He starts to attend church every Sunday, but, with an assassin after him, he is looking behind every tree and at every Middle Easterner. Titus can't stay out of the business and helps the Norman detective on her case. Since it's about the murder of a Middle Eastern woman, he thinks the person that killed her might be his assassin. Titus, as himself, is boring, but his life certainly is not. I enjoyed the story and the characters. I look forward to reading the rest of the series.
