ABOUT THE BOOK:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>The murder of Krista Carmichael’s fourteen-year-old sister by an online predator has shaken her faith and made her question God’s justice and protection. Desperate to find the killer, she creates an online persona to bait the predator. But when the stalker turns his sights on her, will Krista be able to control the outcome?<\/div>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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

Got so busy I almost forgot I needed to post a review for Predator<\/a>. I’m glad I remembered because this is a must read book, especially for parents with children who use internet social networking sites or for those who frequent those sites themselves. Although Predator<\/a> is a novel, it is evident that Blackstock did her research before writing it. Grapevyne may be a fictional company but the similarities to and dangers of Facebook and other social networking sites are evident. It is a timely tale with enough cautions woven into the plot to make me rethink my own Facebook habits and cringe at some of the info I see revealed about some of my friends.<\/p>\n

That being said, Predator<\/a> is also a great story filled with plenty of action, mystery, drama, suspense, and romance to satisfy most readers.\u00a0 As always, Blackstock has done a superb job with Predator<\/a>, her latest release. It is just another fine example of why I have always enjoyed her books.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
