Private Justice: Newpointe 911 Audiobook

" The story was good, but went on forever!! Could've cut it in half "

" A very good mystery story with interesting characters. Without preaching, Blackstock subtly weaves Christian values and attitudes into the story. Her Christian characters are not perfect, but realistic, flawed people who embrace Jesus as Lord. "

" Terri Blackstock is one of my favorite authors. I have loved each series and the people she creates as characters. I really cared about them and what happened. I like reading that people transform to become their best selves. The mysteries are well written, with the surprises that a mystery lover relishes. I couldn't put them down.. "

" Very good! I would like to read the next book in the series. "

" I enjoyed this book because it was an easy read and the story moved quickly. It made me want to keep reading to find out what was going to happen next. "

" Great thrilling style and good plot till the end "

" I read this right after it came out. Anything by Blackstock is good! "

" I'm a firefighter and a lover of miseries and this book was SOOO good! I couldn't put it down! "

" A good reason to check out the author before you read the book....the murder mystery part was good but had I researched the author, I would have realized that 2/3 of the book is basically being preached at. I don't mind books that delve into religion. I loved the Left Behind Series and read all kinds of different books that have religious undertones...but this book is a "Why you need to repent and make Jesus your savior" and "you are basically going to hell if you don't think like I do" etc. book with a little murder mystery thrown in....this preaching I can get from Church or pastors when I request it. The write up on the book didn't mention anything about this being a Christ centered book and probably should.....I finished it only to find out who done it but took all of her other books off my list of to-reads. When I read Christian authors like Karen Kingsbury I expect it. I think the fact that I did this as an audio book was worse because I couldn't skip over the preachy parts.... "

" This book takes place in a small town in Louisiana where most of the residents know each other. The two main stories are about a marriage which is in a downward spiral and a serial killer in town. The author weaves these two together in such a way that you begin to care about her characters from early on and she keeps you guessing as to who the serial killer is. The issues of trust, forgiveness and committments are dealt with throughtout this book. A very satisfying ending and a great read! "

" I'm a firefighter and a lover of miseries and this book was SOOO good! I couldn't put it down! "

" Good page turner, but sometimes the character's inner thoughts seemed silly. "

" Private Justice is an intriguing mystery blended with romance, suspense and a Christian undertone. I really enjoyed reading this e-book and will seek out more novels of this nature in the future! "

" I like a good sermon as much as the next person, but enough is enough in this book. I wish she had dialed it down a notch or two. "

" This is a great action/mystery series. It has good action, likeable characters which grow through the series. At times it can be a bit 'preachy', but then Teri Blackstock is a solid christian writer. I have read the whole series to date. "

" murder among firemen's wives in small Louisiana town "

" This is a great series...and my introduction to Terri Blackstock's work. I love the mysteries and suspense. They are difficult to put down. "

" This was a really good book. I listened the Mp3 audiobook and I have to say the impersonations of how African Americans talk was just terrible, but overall the storyline was good. "

" Another good story from Terri Blackstock. I enjoyed it. "

" really good book,it is kinda scary though "

" Great thrilling style and good plot till the end "

" This was an enjoyable story to read. I liked the relationship struggles and conflicts amongst the backdrop of action and murder. The mystery was good and kept me guessing till the very end. "

" Predictable, pointless & preachy. Truly one of the dumbest books that I've ever read. Makes all Southerners look like backward, oafish religious zealots. Total waste of my time. I can't see myself ever reading this author again. "

" Great book! I found myself very anxious at times and the suspense was great! Can't wait to read the next one! "

" Great book that keeps you on the edge of your seat till the very end! "

" This book definately had an unexpected twist to it. I was able to figure out who the culprit was before the book revealed it in any way, but the reasoning behind what he did took me by surprise. "

" This 'who done it' murder mystery was ok, but not as good as the Cape Refuge Series. It was a bit more 'preachy', but still a mystery till the end of who wanted to kill off the wives of the firemen in this small town of Newpointe, Louisiana. "

" A book written more for women than men. Predictable story line and weak character development. "

" I wasn't sure if I'd be able to finish... At times I felt preached to, the characters got a bit whinny and even though I liked the story it was part of a turn off. I did finish, it WAS a good story but I think I'll wait a long while till I read another Terri book. "

" Pretty good book. Pretty good story line...but gracious did they have to kill so many people. Hope the rest of the series does not kill this many people or the small town will be down to a population of 1. "

" Typical Blackstock writing. Christian influence in the plot and characters. "

" Couldn't even really get going into the book because it became so preachy. I thought it would be a mystery/suspense book, but I guess it was more about trying to convert the masses than about fiction. I'm sorely disappointed. "

" Religious content but still had tough time putting it down. "

" Terry Blackstock is easy reading, suspenseful and always a page turner. "

" I loved this book, couldn't put it down. "

" I enjoyed this entire series and read it all. it isn't too deep but for me, who likes mystery without the yuck of so many murder books, it was perfect. "

" This book just dragged on and on and on. "

" This 'who done it' murder mystery was ok, but not as good as the Cape Refuge Series. It was a bit more 'preachy', but still a mystery till the end of who wanted to kill off the wives of the firemen in this small town of Newpointe, Louisiana. "

" The story line was pretty good but the book could have been 150 pages less without all of the redundant preaching. I don't need to be told that a man might be killing multiple people because someone fell away from God. My fault for not checking a little further into the author's bio. "

" I liked that I wasn't sure who the killer was in this book. The thing that bugged me was that I sort of thought the main woman character was sort of dumb. She just couldn't see some very obvious things, in my opinion. "

" Very good! I would like to read the next book in the series. "

" This was a really good book. I listened the Mp3 audiobook and I have to say the impersonations of how African Americans talk was just terrible, but overall the storyline was good. "

" A story of vengeance, hate, and murder as well as faith, reconciliation, and love. A serial killer targeting the wives of firemen and terrorizing the small town leads to the restoration of faith in one fireman and reconciliation with his estranged wife. "

" This was a young adult christian murder mystery. I know that doesn't make much sense. I think the idea behind the story line was great, I just think it could have been better written. "

" I LOVED this book. I enjoy all Terri Blackstock books, but they seriously keep getting better and better! It was good to be reminded that Christian people make mistakes too, and even they fall away from the Lord. "

" Great thrilling style and good plot till the end "

" All of these Newpointe 911 novels are fun, fast paced reads. I really enjoyed them, however.....if you are an avid reader and your eyes are drawn towards misprints and editing mistakes....BEWARE. I have never found so many mistakes in my life. It drove me insane. "
