Intervention

A Gripping Contemporary Christian Suspense Novel

By: Terri Blackstock

Narrated by: Cassandra Campbell

In this New York Times bestselling novel from Terri Blackstock, Barbara Covington has one more chance to save her daughter from a devastating addiction by staging an intervention. But when Emily disappears on the way to rehab--and her interventionist is found dead at the airport--Barbara enters the darkest nightmare of all.

In the wake of Barbara's husband's death, her eighteen-year-old daughter Emily has developed a severe addiction to drugs, and Barbara is afraid her son Logan will pursue the same path. In desperation to save her daughter, Barbara enrolls Emily in a rehab program, complete with an intervention agent scheduled to securely escort Emily to the facility.

Emily and the agent set off for Georgia, but when the interventionist is murdered in the parking garage of the Atlanta airport and Emily disappears into thin air, Emily becomes the prime suspect. Convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that her daughter is innocent, Barbara and her son race to Atlanta to try to find Emily before Detective Kent Harlan arrests her for the murder.

Detective Kent has questions of his own. His gut tells him that this is a case of an addict killing for drugs, but as he gets to know Barbara, he begins to hope he’s wrong about Emily. Fearing for Emily's life, Barbara maintains her daughter's innocence. But does she really even know her daughter anymore?

The panic level rises as the mysteries intensify: Did Emily's obsession with drugs lead her to commit murder--or is she another victim of a cold-blooded killer?

Timely and powerful

If you could sum up Intervention in three words, what would they be?

Timely, powerful, and insightful.

Did the plot keep you on the edge of your seat? How?

Yes. The topic itself is very emotional in nature and the author managed to create a tense story arc with judiciously spaced smaller dramatic moments.

Which character – as performed by Cassandra Campbell – was your favorite?

Detective Kent. His personal back story and journey gave depth to his impact on the story. Blackstock portrayed him as a kind but real character who was often frustrated by the protagonist.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It certainly had my attention but was too long for one sitting. I was, however, glad to get back to it whenever I had the opportunity.

Any additional comments?

The author's personal story at the end deepened the authenticity of the story. Having dealt personally with some of the issues it was as if Ms. Blackstock was a friend coming alongside us in our journey.

Well written but predictable

It had all the bells and whistles to be a good well rounded book but a bit to predictable from the beginning. I do want to see what comes next.
