The murder of Krista Carmichael’s 14-year-old sister by an online predator has shaken her faith and made her question God’s justice and protection.

Ryan Adkins started the social network GrapeVyne in his college dorm and has grown it into a billion-dollar corporation. But he never expected it to become a stalking ground for online predators. One of them lives in his town and has killed two girls and attacked a third. When Ryan meets Krista, the murders become more than a news story to him, and everything is on the line.

Joining forces, he and Krista set out to stop the killer. But when hunters pursue a hunter, the tables can easily turn. Only God can protect them now.

Great story

I have favorite authors and Terri Blackstock is one of them. You get truly involved with this story and characters

One of My Favorites So Far!

Good storyline and great reading. This really kept my attention. I recommend this for casual, fun audio.

enlightening

I wanted to listen! Fascinating story.
I learned more about Internet safety in a way that made me want to be more careful about what I share on social media.

Exciting!

Great, exciting story. The narration was pretty good as well. I'll be listening to more of her books.

Predator lives up to expectations

Another good one. Narrator didn't seem to be her usual telling, but enjoyed every minute.

Social Networks beware of them

Read this book for a book club and really enjoyed it. The twists and turns of the story kept me in my car in the parking lot listening.

Great listen

I like this book as well as many others I have read by Terri blackstock. either this book was written more predictably or I've read so many of her books that I was able to figure out what was coming. overall, excellent book and worth the read/listen.

A lot to think about

Lots of intrigue a well a content to tug at the heart strings! This is why I love this author!

Excitement packaged in mystery with a social issue

What made the experience of listening to Predator the most enjoyable?

Great narration, believable character inflection, short chapters, nice twists, pleasant narrative voice.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Predator?

Revelation of the predator or maybe the death of the predator by dogs --nice touch.

Have you listened to any of Cassandra Campbell’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No, this is the first --but I thought it was perfectly done, especially that a female portrayed men and women so credibly without emoting.

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

No, Maybe three settings due to time constraints. We purchased it to listen to in the car as we made two different long trips.

Any additional comments?

Great moral message for our time. Important warning for vulnerable people. Naivete, either from a refusal to learn or from just being young can be deadly. The best defense from this type of predator is to never tred on his territory. These creeps are strong, mean, heartless, and usually sociopathic or schizophrenic. If a young woman or man is caught in a predator's web, they usually pay with their lives, and always with their innocence.
