Neither of them realize how every waking moment they move closer to the serial killer who harbors an unnatural and deadly obsession.With the beautiful Carol locked in Richmond Red's sights, the clock is ticking down to her destruction.

- Hope-Inspired Stories Photo: The beautiful photo of Sodus Bay, N.Y. during a particularly harsh storm on Lake Ontario earlier this year was taken by photographer and sister in Christ, Ginger Strom. Note the courageous lone seagull taking flight in the upper right corner of the photo.“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things and the God of peace will be with you” (Philippians 4:8).
Another great sounding book. Sharing.
