Suspense

There’s nothing as convicting as words that threaten your daughter’s life. You want your kid back? Do just as I say. You do not know who I am. But I’ve studied you, you and your family. I’ve been watching you. You’ve been using people. Because you’re greedy. Now, it’s payback time. Terrifying for any parent, these words are especially grim for Senator Bruce Grable, whose guilt may be the reason his five-year-old daughter, Zoe, has disappeared.

Or is it because of his wife, whose words make her sound more the victim than their daughter? Or their nanny, whose silence harbors her own secrets? One thing is for sure: The words hold the clues to finding Zoe alive. And it’s up to Special Agent Mackenzie Graham, a forensic psycholinguist, and FBI agent John Crowfeather to decode the messages in time.

After reading your posting, it sounds like I've been missing
out on some great reading!! I'll have to keep my eyes
peeled for your books, and put them on my TBR list for this
Summer!! Your latest book DOES sound like a real page
turner, especially due to the fact that my Dad served in
WWII, sending out Morse Code messages to the troops, and was
nearly killed during his term of service!! This book would
hold special meaning to me!! Congratulations on your latest
book, and I'll be sure to look for it, as well as your other
books!!

Thank you, Peggy! I can't imagine sending Morse Code under battle conditions--
I had to learn it to earn my Ham Radio license. It takes a lot of concentration,
even sitting in your living room!
I hope you enjoy Words and my other books. My Website, lindajwhite.com, has
more information.

This does sound like a really interesting book! I double majored in English
and Spanish in college and I took a linguistics course too. I will definitely
have this book on my To Be Read List. Oh, I also hung out with a group of
girls who were getting their Ph.D's (sic) in Psychology.

A captivating book and a thought provoking post.
(

This book sounds fascinating. Also, I found the information interesting about body language and certain phrases used when trying to conceal information. I need to remember some of this the next time a politician is declaring his innocence.
(

This sounds really good!
