CFBA: Predator by Terri Blackstock

Song Stuck on the Brain: Andy Griffith Theme Music. I've been whistling in my head for waaaay too long now.




This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing:

Terri Blackstock



MY TAKE:

Come on, what can I say but, WELL Done! Terri is admittedly one of my favorite authors. I've not read a book of hers yet that hasn't hooked me from the very first page. This book didn't disappoint. She confronted a very current issue head on and made it real. (I'm going to follow my nieces and nephew's online sites like a hawk from now on.) She also made me shiver, hold my breath and gasp out loud. When you live the experience with the characters, you know you have a hit on your hands.

I hate giving away a plot. You have to experience it for yourself.

Bravo Terri!



ABOUT THE BOOK:


The murder of Krista Carmichael's fourteen-year-old sister by an online predator has shaken her faith and made her question God's justice and protection. Desperate to find the killer, she creates an online persona to bait the predator. But when the stalker turns his sights on her, will Krista be able to control the outcome?

Ryan Adkins started the social network GrapeVyne in his college dorm and has grown it into a billion-dollar corporation. But he never expected it to become a stalking ground for online Predators. One of them lives in his town and has killed two girls and attacked a third. When Ryan meets Krista, the murders become more than a news story to him, and everything is on the line.

Joining forces, he and Krista set out to stop the killer. But when hunters pursue a hunter, the tables can easily turn. Only God can protect them now.
