BOOK REVIEW | Death Watch
Death Watch
By Jack Cavanaugh and Jerry Kulper
Death Watch is a Christian suspense thriller with a story that could easily be found in today’s headlines. Seemingly a terrorist is on the prowl and people are dying in alarming numbers. Know one has any idea who is behind the acts, but all the victims share the same details. Each person receives a “death” notice and hours later they are dead.
Rookie reporter Syndey St. James stumbles upon the first victim and soon finds herself assigned to story of her career. She is assigned to the story along with visiting international newscaster Huntz Vonner. Fighting to keep her credibility, Syndey follows several leads with the hope of saving people who have received the death notices. Unfortunately, the attempts fail and the race picks up speed as the death count increases around the world.
This novel provides insight inside the world of news media, indeed a cut-throat world where whoever gets the story is highly important. Sydney, a Christian, rediscovery of her faith is refreshing and provides her an opportunity to view the story from a different angle. I need to do some research about this novel because after such a fast-paced read, I felt deflated after reading the ending. There has to be a sequel to this book! If not, I will be disappointed not to find out what happens to Sydney and Huntz with their newly obtained information.
