5.0 out of 5 stars"A gripping thriller...Highly emotional, yet intriguing, "Divine Intervention" is the first of the 'Divine Series' by Ms Tardif, who has already made a name for herself with "Whale Song" and "The River"...as well-written and moving as her previous novels. And for excitement and thrills, it surely doesn't disappoint!"

"Tardif writes a unique crime thriller set in British Columbia. Her use of psychically gifted characters adds to the uniqueness of the story, as well as adding extra layers...A crime novel at its best, with a Canadian twist, this book is a really thrilling page-turner, and is highly recommended..." --Margaret Orford, Allbooks Review

4.5 Stars!

"I wanted to blaze through this one!!! Some of my favorite authors are Canadian. Cheryl Tardif is a new addition to the ranks of Margaret Atwood, Tanya Huff, and a host of others...It's difficult to write a credible multiple point of view novel, because each character has to have his or her own 'voice'. Ms. Tardif manages to do that with the four primary characters...The alternate world Ms. Tardif has created is also interesting combined with a very Canadian feel...My next stop is to purchase Ms. Tardif's second book, "Divine Justice."

--R. Kyle, Amazon Top 500 Reviewer

Note from Cheryl:

I had to tell R. the sad news--that Divine Justice is not yet out. :( Sorry...

But I'm working on it!

"The sparks fly in this red hot paranormal thriller." --Amazon Top 100 Reviewer

"Things get really hot in this paranormal thriller when a serial arsonist murders three people, one of whom is the father of a politician on the rise. Set in British Columbia at a time in the near future, the case is assigned to a very special team of investigators with psychic abilities...The author combines murder, arson, adultery, blackmail, abuse and much more in this fast-paced book that you'll just have to read in one sitting. The only problem with it is that there is a book two mentioned, and I don't yet have a copy in my hands."

"Powerful, emotional, riveting, transcending genre." --Derek Armstrong, author of The Game

5 out of 5 stars “Another wonderful Tardif novel shows her mastery of any genre. Tardif first enthralled me with Whale Song. What a magnificent transition she accomplishes here with Divine Intervention, a future-thriller, or speculative crime fiction, or sci-fi/mystery. Tardif shows that a great story and wonderful voice can bring any genre to life. Of course, I know her secret. Characters. Jasi and her team make this oh-so-very-hip story jump...As with her previous novel, I sense a potential movie here. Powerful, emotional, riveting, transcending genre. Which is a good thing, because here is a blend of speculative fiction and crime novel, although clearly more of the latter. Thumbs up and waiting for more from Cheryl Tardif.”

"Kept me awake last night determined to solve the mystery." -- Joyce Henry, a fan

"After being the lucky winner of [your] 3 books promoted on Shaw TV in Red Deer…I would love to see each of them made into movies, but Divine Intervention is one I don't think "Hollywood North" should even hesitate on. The suspense was unbelievable, and kept me awake last night determined to solve the mystery before reading the last few chapters. You truly know how to hold the reader's interest in all of your books, and I can't wait for Divine Justice to be launched! You have made a mystery reader out of one who used to favour other categories - keep up the good work!"

"This is a must read. This was an excellent book. I couldn't put it down. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes mysteries and suspense with a touch of romance thrown in. I think that Cheryl Kaye Tardif has amazing potential and is a rising star in the writing world. I will be purchasing her other two novels as soon as possible. I am hooked and can hardly wait for her next book in the "Divine" series to be published. Her writing style sets her apart from other authors and the result is a compelling story that you will have a hard time putting down. Read this book and you will see what I mean. This is a must read."

"Better then I expected. I have to be honest Im not generally one for material regarding psychics but am interested in suspense and crime and what not. My father brought me home a signed copy of the book and I started reading it and within the first chapter I was hooked I just couldn't put it down. If you want a good read I would definately suggest this book 100%."
