ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
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."
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.
ABOUT THE BOOK
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.
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.
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.

MY THOUGHTS
Creston Mapes is at it again with the sequel to Fear Has a Name, this fast paced book will immediately grab you and throw you into suspense.
This is the 2nd book in the series, it can very well be a stand alone read. Jack is back in this book, doing what he does best, he's a journalist, one that takes things as far as he can...regardless of what happens to him along the way. Threats. Disappearances. Danger. Second chances, and LOVE....how does love fit in? Well, right along with the Christian aspect of the book of course!
If you like drama, suspense and fast paced books, I think you'll enjoy this one!
