Publisher's summary

Pastor and fireman Nick Foster found the body in the inferno engulfing his church. From the bullet wound in the head, it's clear this is no ordinary fire victim. The quiet community of Newpointe, reeling from the shock of the dead man's identity, struggles with the agonizing question: who did it - and why?

Paramedic Issie Mattreaux is no icon of virtue, but she cares enough about her teenage nephew, Jake, to track him down when he turns up missing. Only, what she finds is far more than a harmless bonfire on the outskirts of town.

After a chilling attempt on Issie's life, Nick takes on the role of protector even as he struggles with the tragedy that has struck his church. Whoever is behind the fire is far from finished. Unknown to Nick, that person's twisted agenda now threatens to consume everything he loves most.

Trial by Fire is book four in the Newpointe 911 series, which offers taut, superbly crafted novels of faith, fear, and close-knit small-town relationships, seasoned with romance and tempered by insights into the nature of relationships, redemption, and the human heart.

Dial up more suspense from the Newpointe 911 series.

Absolutely Love the Narrator

I have always enjoyed Terri Blackstock’s books! And this narrator has hooked and reeled me in!!!

Love ALL TerryBlackstock books!!

This was a great read. I love how it brought the faith and love together I have read almost all her books and waiting on the next one!

Wonderful series!!

This book has many emotions and I am looking forward to the final book in this series in a bittersweet way. Excited for another book with these characters but sad that it is the last one. This book hits on very painful realities for this world and it breaks my heart. Within the first few minutes I was crying. But GOD shows up. This story shows that GOD welcomes all with a repentant heart, we just need to ask. This book will have you wondering who will and will not survive. Give this series a try, just do yourself a favor and start with book one.

Favorite Of Series So Far!

I really enjoyed this book. So far I liked it the best in the series. The characters are fun, good suspense, good storyline, The narrator could do better w/female voices, otherwise he was good as well! This author is so great! You feel like you know the characters personally, which takes a great & talented author. I consider myself to be a devoted fan of her work & hope to enjoy many more of her books either by audio or visual. Thank you so much for a fun and interesting series!

Superbly written!

This was a GREAT book. The plan of salvation, forgiveness, love and so much more! I will look for more books by Terri Blackstock.

Love, Grace and Mercy

God's unconditional love in action through Izzy's journey, reveals His forgiveness, mercy and grace for all.

Great Story!

This is an exciting and inspirational story. The characters are real. The faith is strong and real.

Strongly Christian

What did you love best about Trial by Fire?

If you don't like Christian based books, don't read this because there is a lot of emphasis on turning to Christ in the characters. The story is exciting and gets very intense at the end.

Have you listened to any of J. C. Howe’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

a great job on change of voice between characters.

Trial by fire.

This book was very cathartic for me as a mom who has lost her son. It was a really good book though I just didn't know how they were gonna rescue Izzy or if. I was almost at the point where I thought Nick and Izzy were gonna be like Romeo and Juliet. Thank God for his mercy and creative licence.

Wow

This is one of the best ones yet
I really enjoyed this series
Love this author
