The best in the series

Terri Blackstock's latest Newpointe 911 is the best of the bunch! Unlike the earlier two books in the series, the reader knows right away "whodunnit." However, this knowledge does not spoil the outcome at all; on the contrary, the twists and turns that the plot takes as the culprit is pursued keep you on the edge of your seat. As always, Blackstock's plots also involve a spiritual awakening for at least one of the main characters, and the revival of attorney Jill Clark is a major plotline of Word of Honor. How she copes with an unusual client who has some very black-and-white religious beliefs ties in with Jill's gradual renewal and deeper understanding of her own Christian faith. Word of Honor is Terri at her best, and I can hardly wait for the next in the series.

Intrigue, Conviction & (a little) Romance

Once again, Terri Blackstock has proven herself to be among the best authors-- both Christian and secular. Word of Honor is a timely story as it deals with issues of terrorism, mental instability and trust. At the same time, Blackstock's true-to-life characters challenge the reader to evaluate their own relationship with Christ, reminding them of His sacrifice for us. With just the right combination of suspense, action, faith, and a dash of romance, this novel is sure to satisfy anyone hungry for a great story!

I guarentee you that you will not be able to put this down!

This was one of the bests books that I have ever read! Even though this book is an "adult" book, I reaed it in 1 day and I am in the 7th grade! This book has an interesting plot w/ a lot of twists to it! This book also has great Christian values, which add a lot to it! This is the best book and I guarentee you that You will not be able to put it down!(even if you are not in the 7th grade) My mom started it at night and finished it at 2:00am because it is soo thrilling and very very good!

Excellent

Terri Blackstock has done it once again. I wonderful novel filled with biblical truths. I would highly recommed this book to anyone. Can't wait for the next one.

Word of Honor is fast-paced and suspenseful.

Word of Honor was so full of action and suspense that I couldn't put the book down. Following the story lines and characters was like watching it on a movie screen. The book while entertaining also motivated me to take a closer look at myself and my relationship with God and others. If you've read the earlier Newpointe 911 books you won't want to miss this one to reunite with the characters. I didn't think it could happen but Terri Blackstock's story lines get better with each book. I can't wait for the next one.
