From the Back Cover
The young girl with the Bohemian style was on the floor where she’d fallen, between Parker’s computer case and her file cabinet. She wore a long, flowing skirt—lavender, the color of calm—and camel-colored Uggs. She lay on her back, her long, wavy blonde hair matted with blood.
For struggling singer/songwriter Parker James, the music business has just turned deadly. Her desk in the reception area of a busy recording studio has become a crime scene, and Parker finds herself drawn into a mystery where nothing is as it seems.
Unraveling the truth puts her own life at risk when she uncovers high-level industry corruption and is terrorized by a menacing stalker. As the danger escalates, Parker begins to question her dreams, her future, and even her faith.
Double Minds is a double treat—combining a compelling suspense novel with an inside look at the world of the Christian music industry in Nashville. Terri Blackstock grabs readers at page one and keeps them riveted until the final plot twist is untangled.
My Review: I hope this book does not portray the complete Christian music scene, although I’m sure there is some of this going on. Double Minds is an engaging story. I cared about the characters and found myself wanting the best for them. The ending has an interesting and unexpected twist. Terri Blackstock is an excellent writer. I personally just don’t care for books about Christian celebrities – whether true or untrue. With all that said, I still recommend this book as an interesting and engaging read. I like how the main character’s family, although broken, displays some healing aspects and tough love is lived out with possible encouraging results. This book offers hope for difficult situations. It also shows what happens when people don’t live as God intended and desires for us to live. Real consequences happen for the characters in this story. There is little to no sugar coating, which is popular in Christian fiction. I find this refreshing.
