Then her friend and mentor, Mick Hammon, is killed in a plane crash that claims 151 lives. The crash cripples Erin emotionally to the point that she can no longer fly. Adding to her distress is the fact that the crash remains under investigation. Erin is certain that Mick, a pilot with a flawless record, was not to blame.

Blackstock, Terri Cape Refuge
Zondervan 2002 0-310-23592-8 / 9780310235927 Paperback
ABOUT THE BOOK Cape Refuge FROM THE PUBLISHER Mystery and suspense combine in this first book in an exciting new 4-book series by bestselling author Terri Blackstock. Thelma and Wayne Owens run a bed and breakfast in Cape Refuge, Georgia. They minister to the seamen on the nearby docks and prisoners just out of nearby jails, holding services in an old warehouse and taking many of the "down-and-outers" into their home. They have two daughters: the dutiful Morgan who is married to Jonathan, a fisherman, and helps them out at the B & B, and Blair, the still-single town librarian, who would be beautiful if it weren't for the serious scar on the side of her face.
After a heated, public argument with his in-laws, Jonathan discovers Thelma and Wayne murdered in the warehouse where they held their church services. Considered the prime suspect, Jonathan is arrested. Grief-stricken, Morgan and Blair launch their own investigation to help Matthew Cade, the town's young police chief, find the real killer. Shady characters and a raft of suspects keep the plot twisting and the suspense building as we learn not only who murdered Thelma and Wayne, but also the secrets about their family's past and the true reason for Blair's disfigurement. SYNOPSIS When Thelma and Wayne Owens are found murdered, floating in the ocean near their coastal Georgia bed and breakfast, their son-in-law Jonathan is arrested for the crime-but his wife Morgan and her sister Blair, Thelma and Wayne's daughters, are confident that he didn't do it and set out to find the real killer. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Although Blackstock, a former bestselling romance author in the general market, is now well-known in the CBA for her writing partnership with Beverly LaHaye, her most successful books belong to the inspirational suspense genre, and this novel is no exception. On a small barrier island east of Savannah, Ga., lies Cape Refuge, the site of Hanover House, a halfway home for ex-cons and derelicts run by the island's most beloved no-nonsense Christian couple, Thelma and Wayne Owens. But when the Owenses are found spear-gunned through their throats in their warehouse church, the island and its inhabitants get turned upside-down. The Owens's daughter Morgan's husband, Jonathan, is charged with the murder, but former drug addict Gus Hampton and Hanover House resident Richard Dugan also fall under suspicion. As the Owenses' other daughter, Blair who has spent a lifetime rejecting faith and love because of facial scars from the mysterious burns she suffered as a young child examines her parents' papers, she discovers that Thelma and Wayne had a very shady past. Also drawn into the web of intrigue is a homeless teenager who comes to Hanover House seeking shelter from an abusive family. The pacing is a bit slow at the start, but good writing, well-honed descriptive details, compelling characters and a conclusion that doesn't succumb to pat answers keep the pages turning, making this an engaging novel for fans of Christian nail-biters. (Apr.) Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information. Library Journal Cape Refuge is a peaceful island off the coast of Savannah, GA, a place where the weary and the persecuted retreat to find themselves again. Nothing bad happens here until Wade and Thelma Owens are murdered. Prior to their deaths, the couple had been under pressure from the town council to shut down Hanover House, their bed-and-breakfast for lost souls, because some of their clients had criminal records. And Jonathan Cleary, the couple's son-in-law, had wanted to move his wife, Morgan, out of the house, fearing for her safety. Blair Owens, the second daughter, had moved out years ago and become the town librarian, seeking refuge in books from scars incurred during a fire. When motive and means point to Jonathan, the sisters band together to find the true killer. As Morgan takes over running Hanover House, her example reawakens Blair's interest in God even as they discover that their perfect parents were keeping secrets that may have killed them and endan

Blackstock, Terri Emerald Windows
Zondervan 2001 0-310-22807-7 / 9780310228073 Paperback
ABOUT THE BOOK Emerald Windows FROM THE PUBLISHER Ten years ago, devastated by an ugly scandal, Brooke Martin fled the small town of Hayden to pursue a career as a stained glass artist. Now Brooke has returned on business to discover that some things never change. Her spotted reputation remains. Tongues still wag. And that makes what should be her dream assignment tough. Brooke has been hired to design new stained glass windows at Hayden Bible Church. The job is a career windfall. But Nick Marcello is overseeing the project, and some in the church think Nick and Brooke's relationship is not entirely professional--and as before, there is no convincing those people otherwise. In the face of mounting rumors, the two set out to produce the masterpiece Nick has conceived: a brilliant set of windows displaying God's covenants in the Bible. For Brooke, it is more than a project--it is a journey toward faith. But opposition is heating up. A vicious battle of words and will is about to tax Brooke's commitment to the limit. Only this time, she is determined not to run. Author Biography: Terri Blackstock is the bestselling author of the Newpointe 911 and Sun coast Chronicles suspense series and other books, including Cape Refuge, Emerald Windows, Seaside, and her novels with Beverly LaHaye. SYNOPSIS Brooke Martin and Nick Marcello, falsely implicated ten years ago in a scandal that cost Nick his teaching job, meet again for the first time since then to redesign the stained-glass windows in a historic church-and the rumors start all over again, this time also including Brooke's kid sister, Roxy. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Seasoned Christian suspense novelist Blackstock disappoints with this run-of-the-mill romance. The second Christian novel this year (Linda Dorrell's True Believers is the other) to focus on the renovation of a church and, in particular, the female protagonist's design of its stained glass windows, this story features a lovestruck pair of artists who are supposed to be offbeat and tortured, but in fact are ill-defined and bland. Brooke, a 20-something stained glass artist who, amid scandal, left her hometown immediately after her high school graduation, comes back to do a job and face the gossips who drove her away. Unfortunately for readers, the scandal a misinterpreted hug between student and teacher has no teeth, and it strains credulity to think that any town, even the caricaturish Hayden, Mo., could make so much of so little. Also problematic is that the former teacher, who is only six years Brooke's senior, is motivated to convert her to Christianity mostly because he wants to marry her, but would never marry an unbeliever. Stereotypes abound, including a wealthy, almost mechanically mean-spirited villainess and an Italian family complete with a dead grandfather whose clich?d proverbs are remembered in over-the-top dialect ("You put-a care and-a love into everything you do, Nicky, and that's-a quality"). Blackstock generates enough interest in these characters and their predicaments to keep the pages turning, but the novel's predictable conclusion is telegraphed from the first page. (Oct.)

Blackstock, Terri Justifiable Means
Zondervan 1996 0-310-20016-4 / 9780310200161 Paperback
ABOUT THE BOOK Justifiable Means FROM THE PUBLISHER This rape case is an exception: The victim is more than willing to testify. And there's abundant evidence to put the suspect behind bars. Just one thing bothers Detective Larry Millsaps. Young and beautiful Melissa Nelson seems to know almost too much about the evidence needed to convict her attacker. The unfolding investigation unearths a brutal track record on the part of the suspect...and a stunning revelation of Melissa's own haunting past that could do far worse than destroy her credibility. Caught in a deadly conflict between the ironies of the law and the demands of his Christian convictions, Millsaps finds himself protecting Melissa from a psychopathic stalker's lethal game of cat-and-mouse...even as evidence collects that could send to prison not an inhuman criminal, but the woman Millsaps has come to love. SYNOPSIS This exciting novel of mystery, suspense, and romance, book 2 of Blackstock's Sun Coast Chronicles, involves a cop's newfound love for a rape victim and the tough Christian choices he struggles to make. FROM THE CRITICS Library Journal When detective Larry Millsaps is called in to investigate a rape, he finds enough evidence to convince him that he has an open-and-shut case. He soon discovers, however, that rape victim Melissa Nelson may have planted the evidence in a vengeful plot to convict the rapist, who killed her sister. Although Millsaps cannot condone what Melissa has done, neither can he avoid emotional entanglement with her. Former ABA romance writer Blackstock (Cornerstone, Zondervan, 1995) spins a suspenseful tale of God's mercy and love. Recommended for most libraries.

ABOUT THE BOOK Never Again Good-Bye (Second Chances Series #1) FROM THE PUBLISHER Normally, Wes Grayson would have been attracted to the striking woman with the camera. But this woman has clearly been stalking Amy, his adoptive daughter and the center of his life. And a threat to Amy is a threat to Wes.

But when she learns that Amy's adoptive mother has died, Laney becomes determined to play a part in her daughter's life. Between a man and woman torn by past losses, present fears, and the paradox of their growing fascination for each other, stands one small child.

ABOUT THE BOOK Private Justice FROM THE PUBLISHER A dark shadow of fear has fallen over Newpointe, Louisiana. First one, then another of the town firemen's wives has been murdered, a third has barely escaped an attempt on her life. Incredible as it seems, a serial killer is stalking this sleepy little southern community. And Mark Branning's wife may be next on the list. Mark is determined to protect her. But keeping Allie alive won't be easy -- not with their own marriage already dying a bitter death. Unless they renew their commitment to each other and to God, someone else may settle their problems . . . Permanently. And time to decide is running out. Private Justice is book one in the Newpointe 911 mystery series by award-winning novelist Terri Blackstock. Newpointe 911 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.

Author Biography: Terri Blackstock is the bestselling author of the Newpointe 911 and Sun coast Chronicles suspense series and other books, including Cape Refuge, Emerald Windows, Seaside, and her novels with Beverly LaHaye. FROM THE CRITICS Library Journal Another winner from Blackstock. It is the week of Mardi Gras in the Louisiana town of Newpointe, and the whole town is celebrating. Then horrible news arrives: Martha Dwyer, the wife of a firefighter, has been found murdered, shot through the head, her body set on fire. The townspeople's shock soon turns to horror when yet another firefighter's wife is found murdered in a similar fashion. By the time a third wife is attacked, it has become clear that a serial killer is at work. Firefighter Mark Branning is terrified, especially since he and his wife are estranged. Realizing that Allie may be the next victim, Mark convinces his reluctant wife to leave town with him. Unfortunately, this action does not stop the killer. This tense and exciting thriller is more than a fabulous read; it has an underlying message about the place of religion within a marriage. Highly recommended.

ABOUT THE BOOK River's Edge (Cape Refuge Series) FROM THE PUBLISHER As the mayoral race heats up on the island of Cape Refuge, Jonathan realizes that he is not the frontrunner. Sam Sullivan seems to have the position locked. But when Sullivan's wife turns up murdered, things begin to shift. Lisa is a successful real estate agent on the island, but when scuba divers pull her body out of the water in the exact location where her husband was fishing that day, her best friend and business partner has some theories about what might have happened. Rani Baxter, the African American woman who's known Lisa since college, claims that Lisa's husband, Sam--the mayoral hopeful--had been getting love letters from a woman for the past few weeks. Lisa confided that she was concerned he was having an affair, even though he swore to her that the letters were a hoax. As Police Chief Cade investigates the murder, he uncovers possible scenarios. Did Sullivan fear Lisa's reprisals? Did he kill her to shut her up? Was Lisa, herself, involved in something that would have made Sam look bad and cost him the election? Did he kill her to get her out of the way? Or did her death have anything to do with her decade-long quest to get pregnant? Do the fertility clinics she'd been frequenting--the same ones Morgan has been visiting--hold any clues to her death? Was this the act of a jealous lover? A dangerous client? Or is this all about the election?

Blackstock, Terri Seaside
Zondervan 2001 0-310-23318-6 / 9780310233183 Hardcover
ABOUT THE BOOK Seaside FROM THE PUBLISHER Sarah Rivers has it all: successful husband, healthy kids, beautiful home, meaningful church work. Corinne, Sarah's sister, struggles to get by. From Web site development to jewelry sales, none of the pies she has her thumb stuck in contains a plum worth pulling. No wonder Corinne envies Sarah. What she doesn't know is how jealous Sarah is of her. And what neither of them realizes is how their frantic drive for achievement is speeding them headlong past the things that matter most in life. So when their mother, Maggie, purchases plane tickets for them to join her in a vacation on the Gulf of Mexico, they almost decline the offer. But circumstances force the issue, and the sisters soon find themselves first thrown together, then ultimately drawn together, in one memorable week in a cabin called "Seaside." As Maggie, a professional photographer, sets out to capture on film the faces and moods of her daughters, more than film develops. A picture emerges of possibilities that come only by slowing down and savoring the simple treasures of the moment. It takes a mother's love and honesty to teach her two daughters a wiser, uncluttered way of life--one that can bring peace to their hearts and healing to their relationship. And though the lesson comes on wings of grief, the sadness is tempered with faith, restoration, and a joy that comes from the hand of God. Seaside is a novella of the heart--poignant, gentle, true, offering an eloquent reminder that life is too precious a gift to be unwrapped in haste. Author Biography: Terri Blackstock is the bestselling author of the Newpointe 911 and Sun coast Chronicles suspense series and other books, including Cape Refuge, EmeraldWindows, Seaside, and her novels with Beverly LaHaye. SYNOPSIS Two grown daughters are together with their mother on a secluded Florida beach in search of the perfect photograph of the three of them, but the daughters discover that their mother has much more than that to share with them. FROM THE CRITICS Publishers Weekly Blackstock, queen of the Christian suspense novel (Presumption of Guilt, Evidence of Mercy, etc.), departs from the thrills-and-chills genre to pen this agreeable, but never syrupy, story of a family reunion. Maggie Downing invites her adult daughters for a week of fun in the Florida sunshine, expecting that they will be able to regain some of the closeness they have lost over the years. But both daughters initially resist: Sarah pleads the excuse of not being able to leave her two young children, while the younger Corinne claims she cannot take a vacation from the three fledgling businesses she is trying to run. They do come, but are armed with cell phones and laptops, ignoring their mother's requests for the three of them to spend quality time together. Then Maggie reveals that she has struggled for a year with ovarian cancer and expects to lose the battle sooner rather than later. As the daughters deal with the shock and try to come to terms with the possibility of losing their mother, old bitterness and rivalry ebb away. While the plot is predictable, the dialogue is wonderfully natural and the strong female characters surprisingly well-developed for a novel this brief. The novella's themes of forgiveness and eternal life undergird the plot and characters, but in an unobtrusive, nondidactic way. (Feb.) Forecast: Christian readers who enjoy believable women characters will be drawn to this story, particularly as thoughtful vacation reading, relishing Maggie's message that "time wasted is not always a waste of time."

Blackstock, Terri Shadow of Doubt
Zondervan 1998 0-310-21758-X / 9780310217589 Paperback
ABOUT THE BOOK Shadow of Doubt FROM THE PUBLISHER A Poisoned Past. A Bitter Present. Is Celia a Murderer . . . or a Victim? Detective Stan Sheperd lies comatose in the hospital, a victim of arsenic poisoning. The Newpointe police have a suspect: Celia Shepherd, Stan's wife. Celia is no stranger to such charges. When her first husband died of poisoning, a technicality scuttled the case against her, and Celia got off scot-free. Now it looks like the same old story--only this time, the motive appears plain. An old flame has moved into town under circumstances bound to raise suspicion. And that's just for starters. More evidence is gathering that can put Celia away for good. But attorney Jill Clark thinks the pieces of the puzzle fit together a bit too neatly. Either her client's Christian faith is a sham, or she's the victim of a deadly frame up--and the real killer is still afoot. . . . Shadow of Doubt is book two in the Newpointe 911 suspense series by award-winning novelist Terri Blackstock. Newpointe 911 offers taut, superbly crafted novels of fear, faith, and close-knit, small-town relationships, seasoned with romance and tempered by insights into the nature of relationships, redemption, and the human heart. Look for book one, the best-selling Private Justice, and the upcoming False Witness at your favorite Christian bookstore. Author Biography: Terri Blackstock is the bestselling author of the Newpointe 911 and Sun coast Chronicles suspense series and other books, including Cape Refuge, Emerald Windows, Seaside, and her novels with Beverly LaHaye. SYNOPSIS Book two in the Newpointe 911 series in which Celia Shepherd is arrested for the attempted murder of her husband, Stan. FROM THE CRITICS Library Journal When police officer Stan Shepherd is rushed to the hospital complaining of gastric pains, his horrified friends and family find out that he has been poisoned with arsenic. The situation is especially traumatic for Stan's wife, Celia, whose first husband died after being given arsenic. Although she was acquitted of that crime, local police decide that there is no way two husbands being poisoned in the same way was a coincidence, and Celia is arrested. The number of people who believe in her dwindles. Trying to prove her innocence, Celia finds herself turning more and more to her faith in God to get through her troubles. Blackstock's second mystery in the "Newpointe 911" series (following Private Justice, Zondervan, 1998) is a real page-turner, with some exciting sequences and a truly surprising ending. Libraries looking for mysteries with a strong Christian element should find this book pleasing to most patrons.
