About this listen
In her most chilling challenge yet, Sienna St. James believes she has come face to face with the terrorist responsible for the carnage in her hometown. Taking him on as a client in her therapy practice may be the only way to prove to herself and authorities that her time-tested instincts are right. Complicating matters are her damaged dreams and broken heart and the need to finally confront the one person whose absence from her life changed everything. The time of reckoning has come, and for Sienna finding healing and happiness - and the savvy needed to stay alive - hang in the balance. Leslie J. Sherrod, the recipient of the SORMAG Readers Choice Award for Christian Author of the Year (2012), has a master's degree in social work and has worked as a therapist, just like her current protagonist, Sienna St. James. Her novels, Losing Hope, Secret Place, and Like Sheep Gone Astray have been featured in Baltimore's Enoch Pratt Free Library Writer's LIVE! Series,as well as on local CBS and NBC affiliates and on AOL's Black Voices. She has received a starred review from Booklist and is a contributor to the best-selling A Cup of Comfort devotional series. A graduate of the University of Maryland, Leslie lives in Baltimore, Maryland, with her husband and three children.

Two little girls, frozen in black and white. One picture worth killing for. The Civil Rights Movement is less than a distant memory to Lisa Waldren - it is someone else’s memory altogether, passed on to her through the pages of history. Her life as a federal prosecutor in Boston feels utterly remote from the marches in the South that changed her father’s generation - and the entire nation - forever.

Another LSJ gem
Sienna got on my nerves with her pursuit...I now understand why she had to! Will be moving on to Sweet Violet.
Christian fiction that keeps your interest with highs, mid-range then highs ... Never a dull moment. I put it down and walked away a couple of times because I couldn't take it only to pick it right back up.
