Publisher's summary

Sara Walsh is unsure of her own safety. Every day when she leaves her job as a writer, she takes a different route to avoid patterns in her routine that could put her life in jeopardy. Ever since she and her sister were abducted as children, and her sister was murdered, Sara has been forced to live in a paranoid world where a faceless man could be stalking her every move. But this man is no apparition. He¿s real and he¿s obsessed with finding her ¿ and killing her.

As Sara struggles to face her darkest fears, she learns that opening herself to new love may be the only way to reclaim her life. A chilling narration from Tom Stechschulte ensures listeners will savor every minute of delicious suspense.

"Henderson's romantic suspense is a satisfying read. She's tweaked the story line just enough to keep the tension taut and the romance springy." (Romantic Times Magazine)

Intriguing

I have re-read or listened to this book several times over the years. The characters, the suspense are just as intriguing every time. It is a great book and a wonderful precursor to the O’Malley Family series. I highly recommend it.

Well done all around!

What did you love best about Danger in the Shadows?
Beautifully written & perfectly narrated! A true romantic suspense without the usual smut! This is a Christian author who lives and writes her ideals. She manages to send a clear message of God's love and how people of true faith live their lives without preaching or diluting the fine tension of the story. Amazing!


Have you listened to any of Tom Stechschulte’s other performances before? How does this one compare?
Tom Stechschulte is one of the finest narrators I have had the pleasure of hearing. He has done nearly all of Dee Henderson's books and I get the definite sense that he enjoys them as much as I.

Any additional comments?
Dee Henderson is an amazing author. I wish she had more books out but I believe that quality is far more important then quantity, and quality is something she delivers-IN SPADES! She expresses violence, in defense of bystanders, loved ones, ones country and oneself as the unfortunate necessity it is. Expresses romance and the strong attraction everyone looks for in romance, but with the respect and restraint that is to often missing in fiction and in life. I can read or listen to her works and simply enjoy. I will not be walking or working out then suddenly freeze and go: Wait, did she have to go into THAT kind of detail? In a simple and transparent metaphor: there is no smoke to make you wince or cloud things up, no fire to burn the plot to rubble. Just the heat of action and the kind of warm relaxing steam that even the slightly prudish reader/listener can enjoy any time of day.

Danger in the Shadows is a prequel to the O'Malley Series I believe Audible has them clearly labeled. Check them out and enjoy!

Excellent story, great narrator.

This was a great story as are all of Dee Henderson's books. It's a great blend of mystery, suspense and romance. Tom Stechschulte is a wonderful narrator and very easy to listen to. With all of Dee Henderson's books, she has proved that you can write a really good book without filling it with sex and profanity. Thank you Dee Henderson.

interesting and wholesome story

interesting and wholesome story line and character build up. I wish it didn't have to end. I've enjoyed the O'Malley series and it was great to read the first of the books.

Rainy day romance

Great Christian love story. Characters have a relationship with God which is central to who they are and the unraveling of the plot.

Great story!

This is my favorite book. I have read it many times before and it was nice to hear it come to life, though I didn't care for the man who read the book very much.
