"Keating's novels are akin to John Ford's Stock Company in that some of the same characters—ordained churchmen, parishioners, CIA and FBI agents, and private citizens—repeatedly appear in the series and accomplish feats of derring-do against evil.

"New in Lionhearts is that we learn something of Grant's past with the SEALs. We are also introduced to a new character in this book: the son of a former shipmate of Grant's who is now a fellow pastor. We expect to encounter this character again in a future book in the series, as we do a lady reporter whose professional engagements with the young and intellectual shepherd occasion shared danger and portend romance. This is a good read."
