Publisher's summary

How Far Would He Go To Keep Them Safe?

It was more than a break-in. More than a stalking. It was personal. When a stalker targets his family, journalist Jack Crittendon must uncover who the person is and what his motives are - if he is to protect the ones he loves. It will lead Crittendon into a world of behind-closed-door secrets and faith gone awry, as does his investigation of a missing pastor, whose apparent suicide is more than it appears. Each move Crittendon makes weaves him tighter and tighter into a web of lies, greed, hypocrisy, sin, and danger.

He believed he’d never give in to fear. But that was before. And holding on to his faith won’t be easy. Nor will keeping his family safe, and ending the terror. Because that might require him to step over lines he never dared to cross.

Critic reviews

"A truly captivating work of ratcheting thrills and surprising grace. You will not be able to put it down - or get it out of your head once you finally do." (Robert Liparulo, author of The 13th Tribe, The Judgment Stone, and Comes a Horseman)

Excellent and well written story with fantastic ending

I thoroughly enjoyed the way the multiple stories were all woven together to form a beautiful pattern of Christ love at the end. It made me think and learn a lot about love and forgiveness.

The level of detail and a true mystery until the end.

I had never read anything by this author but took a chance for my long road trip to listen on audible. Excellent story.
The reader was good for the both part except when reading the wife’s voice.
No, just no. Soft is good, but to attempt an affect of a feminine voice took away from the severity and sincerity of her trauma and fear. It sounded almost mocking.
I would read more from this author, but maybe not on audible.

wonderful book

I loved listening to this book. This is one of those you don't want to stop listening to. The story line is great. It was easy to separate the characters in the story. I would suggest this book to anyone.

Excellent Christian Read

The twist and turns of this book all lead to Jesus. And excellent read that keeps you suspense from beginning to end. You wouldn’t want anyone to distract you from one chapter to the next.

Excellent!!

This was a really fun thriller. I felt that there were a few ideas that were more idealistic vs. reality but over all it was really fun. I can't wait to check out the other two books in this series.
