\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Creston has fond memories of his boyhood in Bath, Ohio, where he became enchanted with his future wife, way back in the fourth grade. His father, Bernie, owned and operated The Weathervane Furniture Shop in town. The whole family lived right upstairs in the century-old house known as “The Shop.”<\/p>\n

Creston studied journalism at Bowling Green State University, then began his writing career. During the past 30 years, he has worked as a reporter, corporate copywriter, creative director, freelance writer, and author.
\nABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

There’s More Than One Kind of Poison in This Town<\/b><\/p>\n

People are sick and dying. Rumors are swirling. Some claim chemicals leaking from a manufacturing plant are causing the cancer that’s crippling people on the poor side of Trenton City, Ohio. Yet nothing at the plant appears amiss.<\/p>\n

The problem remains a mystery until reporter Jack Crittendon’s long-time mechanic falls ill and he investigates. Soon Jack becomes engulfed in a smokescreen of lies, setups, greed, and scandal.<\/p>\n

The deeper he digs, the more toxic the corruption he uncovers. As he faces off with the big-time players behind the scenes and tries to beat the clock before more people die, he realizes the chillingly unthinkable–he knows too much.<\/p>\n

MY REVIEW:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jack Crittendon, reporter,\u00a0 is back in another suspense filled and action packed novel that kept me turning the pages as fast as I could read them. Second book in the series, events in Poison Town<\/a> takes place shortly after the conclusion of\u00a0Fear Has a Name<\/a> and several familiar characters turn up in various supporting roles.<\/p>\n

Poison Town<\/a> has a fast moving plot filled with danger and suspense that keeps the reader on edge most of the time. It is a story about corporate corruption that comes closer to home than Jack could ever imagine and the closer Jack and his friends come to the truth, the more they find that their lives and the lives of their families are in jeopardy.<\/p>\n

A story about bravery in the face of threatening situations and faith in God when circumstances seem impossible, Poison Town<\/a> is a must read for lovers of suspense novels.<\/p>\n
