From the Back Cover
The whole thing couldnt have taken more than sixty seconds.

Bailey hung on to the counter, dazed. If she let go, shed collapseand the twitching fingers of one of the gunmen would pull a trigger. The rest of her group huddled in frozen shock.

Dear God, tell me this is a dream 

The shooters teeth clenched. Anybody who moves is dead.

On a beautiful Saturday morning the nationally read Scenes and Beans bloggers gather at Java Joint for a special celebration. Chaos erupts when three gunmen burst in and take them all hostage. One person is shot and dumped outside.

Police Chief Vince Edwards must negotiate with the desperate trio. The gunmen insist on communicating through the comments section of the blogso all the world can hear their story. What they demand, Vince cant possibly provide. But if he doesnt, over a dozen beloved Kanner Lake citizens will die 

I read this book out of order. I read Book 1, 2 and then this. Now I have ordered Book 3, Crimson Eve. The first time I tried to read this book I put it aside. I don’t know why I couldn’t get into it – not in the mood or something. The second time I picked up this book, I couldn’t put it down. As with any hostage situation, it is hard to put down until you know what is going to happen. The concept that the gunmen wanted to communicate through a blog is another interesting take. This book shows that terrible things can happen in a small town as well as in the “city.” I love that God is brought into the equation and that people were praying nonstop for the hostages. The author is able to get her points across without offensive language. I appreciate that aspect! If you are in the mood for a page-turner, I recommend this series. The three books I’ve read are good, and I look forward to reading the third one.
