About this listen
A girl with a questionable past. An Alfred Hitchcock movie. And a plan for a double murder conspire for one explosive ride.
Emily Covington has turned her life around after a drug addiction, but her family still has trouble trusting her. Though Emily has committed herself to a year-long treatment program and has been sober for almost a year beyond that, even her mother walks on eggshells around her, fearing she’ll relapse. After her behavior during her drug years, Emily realizes she has a lot to prove.
When police discover a homemade bomb under Emily’s car, and she then learns the wife of one of her friends was murdered that same morning, she knows things are deadly serious. But who wants her dead?
A conversation she had with two men, an Alfred Hitchcock movie, and a plan for a double murder all conspire for one explosive ride...and Emily is the only one who can identify the killer and save the life of the next potential victim. But will anyone believe her?
As she frantically works to solve this ever more complicated puzzle and convince the authorities of the truth, Emily finds the focus of the investigation turned back on her. She’s played right into the killer’s hands...and he won’t stop until more lives are destroyed.
Full-length suspense

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 109
This rape case is different from most: the victim is more than willing to testify and there's ample evidence to put the suspect behind bars. But one thing gnaws at Detective Larry Millsaps - young and beautiful Melissa Nelson knows too much about the evidence needed to convict her attacker. Millsaps's investigation unearths the suspect's brutal track record, but also some stunning revelations about Melissa's own past. Caught in a deadly conflict between the ironies of the law and the demands of his Christian convictions, the detective finds himself protecting Melissa - even as evidence mounts that could imprison not only an inhuman criminal, but also the woman Millsaps has come to love.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 738
Nate Beckett has spent his life fighting wildfires instead of the lies and rumors that drove him from his Colorado hometown. His mother begs him to come back now that his father has been released from prison, but it isn’t until he’s sidelined by an injury that he’s forced to return and face his past. But that means facing Brenna, too. Fourteen years ago, Nate was in love with the preacher’s daughter. When Pastor Strickland discovered Brenna defied him to sneak out with Nate, the fight between Strickland and Nate’s drunken dad was loud - and very public.

Casey Cox’s DNA is all over the crime scene. There’s no use talking to police; they’ve failed her abysmally before. She has to flee before she’s arrested . . . or worse. The truth doesn’t matter anymore. But what is the truth? That’s the question haunting Dylan Roberts, the war-weary veteran hired to find Casey. PTSD has marked him damaged goods, but bringing Casey back can redeem him. Though the crime scene seems to tell the whole story, details of the murder aren’t adding up.

Good end of series book
I like how the mom, Barbara faced realistic situations. I agree with Ms Blackstock, drugs are destroying adults & kids alike.
I also like how Kent, the detective and Barbara’s boyfriend loves Barbara and gives her amazing support. Most of all, the trust between the characters in this book, belief that God has a reason. We don’t know why, But God knows.

I really love Terri Blackstock’s books! She does an excellent job of telling a story and having God be the hero. I also am encouraged with how she ties it all up at the end.

Well done...concerned about addiction
I thought this story was well done with the concerns of addiction. We don't often think how addiction affects those around us. I liked the reference to God and giving us strength in our lives and surroundings. Would recommend.
