Christian fiction for Middle Grade / Young Adults. Steven Miller guards a dark secret. Dad drilled into Steven that blindness should never be used as an excuse. So when Steven finds an old triathlon medallion among Dad's belongings, he's inspired to follow in his footsteps. Maybe it'll quiet the guilt he's carried since Dad's death three years ago. While Steven continues his triathlon training during his final summer at camp, a serious illness keeps Rustic Knoll's beloved Nurse Willie from managing her clinic. When Steven teams up with his friend Claire to encourage Willie's recovery, his feelings for Claire grow beyond friendship. But his buddy, Dillon, has started down a dangerous path that Steven knows all too well. Can he keep his friend from falling into that sin without exposing his own past?

Stephen Miller has a lot on his mind; his upcoming senior year of high school, a three-year old load of guilt, and a visual impairment that won't go away. With a week at Rustic Knoll Bible Camp, he'll reconnect with old friends, especially Claire, maybe recruit a triathlon partner and hopefully regain his bearings. He recruits his old pal, Dylan for the triathlon, and they begin training using a tandem bike and a tether. By finishing the race, he'll prove to everyone he can overcome his visual impairment and in some way atone for the part he thinks he played in his father's death. But obstacles mount. His feelings for Claire take him sideways, and he has a dirty little secret he is unwilling to share.See No Evil provides an interesting glimpse of the struggles of a teenage boy coping with blindness. Typical of Mary Hamilton, powerful spiritual lessons are woven into the story. She doesn't shy away from the pervasive issue of pornography, and the discussion questions at the end of the book are excellent.

See No Evil Rustic Knoll Bible Camp #3 Volume 3 Mary L Hamilton Books Reviews
Mary Hamilton has set the bar pretty high with this latest release. She tackled such prevalent topics as pornography, sexting, and sexual relationships. Mary has an uncanny way of writing in a way that doesn't preach. She can reach the reader by engaging them and pulling them into the story and introducing these topics through the characters, who we see as flawed people.
I've waited for Steven's story and really enjoyed it! It didn't focus on his blindness, but rather his struggles as a man. Although, this is the third in the series it can be read independently, but I would recommend reading the other books first. It will help you understand the relationships between the campers a little better. There is a lot of back story not covered in this book, so if you want to know everyone's story read the other books.
I highly recommend this book to teens and parents.
I was provided with a copy of this book by the publisher in exchange for my honest review.
I really liked this book because it kept my interest. I never knew where it was going to go. My emotions were all over the place when reading this book. I loved church camp and being a part of a group. I would read this author's work again. My favorite character was Steven, maybe because he was the lead character but he had the most to gain or lose in the story and you were rooting for him to make the right decisions. I would recommend the book to others, even though it is for a younger audience. I still really like the way she drew you in and made you care for the characters even if I was an older person. I would recommend it to everybody because there is so much that people can relate to in the book dealing with weaknesses, strengths, talents, being who you are. I love books that show how you can work together or worship together even if you have differences because God made us all to be who we are. I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
See No Evil is a fitting, bittersweet close to the Rustic Knoll series. I grew attached to these realistic characters---especially Steven, Claire, Nurse Willie, and even Dillon. Each of them feel like people I've known.
Because of the pornography issue that's dealt with in this book, I was unsure how much I would actually enjoy reading it. But I was nicely surprised. The issue is talked about, yes, but never is there anything explicit, and it seems touched on as little as possible---just enough to prove how wrong it is and how boys can fight the temptation. This makes it a powerful book for young people who face these issues.
What took up more of the story was, among other things, Steven's triathlon training and his blindness, Steven and Claire's battle to save Nurse Willie, and Zeke's wonderful Bible talks for the kids, which impact Steven throughout the week. The characters are drawn deftly, even to where teens can relate to them. The writing is descriptive---you feel like you're sweating in the heat the characters are experiencing, you feel the pain of their injuries, you understand their hurts and discouragement. There's always fun and adventure, too.
I hope this and the other Rustic Knoll books find their way into the hands of many young teens! They are entertaining, relatable, and packed with important messages.
Best of the series in my opinion. If you haven't read the other two, do! Mary Hamilton did a great job helping the reader"see" through a blind teenager's world. Her descriptions were anazing. Great story with several good life lessons. Not just for teens...her trilogy kept this adult turning the pages.
“SEE NO EVIL” was a very enjoyable book – the last of the series and well put together.
Steven (born blind) was one of the main characters in the first two books and he had the lead role in this book.
It was interesting to read about his reactions throughout the series, but this book really brought out his personality and showed his responses as a blind boy.
Clair was also fun to follow. She was another important figure in all three episodes. If it wasn’t their last year at camp, she could easily be the next main character for a new story.
This was a story from the male perspective. All the action was centered around how Steven saw the camp, how he reacted to camp, friends, his mother and the death of his dad.
Zeke was a good preacher and didn’t change positions or personality throughout all three books. The sermons he preached made not only the campers think, but also those who read the book. How he got his points across was cool. These sermons tied the whole story together well.
Having never been to a religious camp, the books made it sound like a lot of fun.
This book was enjoyable, intriguing and entertaining. I couldn’t put it down. I would highly recommend the whole series not only for teens, but also as good reading for adults.
