Overview
Unable to believe that missing police chief Cade is actually responsible for a hit-and-run murder, Blair Owens finds proving the man's innocence further challenged when a kidnapper places a ransom call from Cade's cell phone. Original.

Publishers Description
Police Chief Cade disappears after hitting and killing a man with his car. Without a trace, without a note, without taking clothes or his car or money, he is gone. When a witness says she saw Cade getting into a blue Buick with a woman before his disappearance, the newspapers report that Cade left town to be with her. Blair knows it doesn't make sense for Cade to leave without word for any reason. The dead man is identified, and it soon becomes clear that the woman Cade was seen with was the wife of the dead man. Newspapers begin to ask hard questions. Was the Cape Refuge Chief of Police having an affair with this woman? Did he deliberately kill her husband, then make it look like an accident? When the police department receives a handwritten note from Cade that he has run off to get married to a woman he's kept secret, everyone breathes a sigh of relief. But Blair notices his unusual signature: Matt Cade. Cade never goes by his first name, and he especially never calls himself "Matt." She thinks it's a signal from him that the contents of the note are false. Meanwhile, around the south, there are news reports about babies being kidnapped from area hospitals. When a ransom call comes to Hanover House from the baby's kidnapper, they are all shocked to see that the phone it is traced to is Cade's cell phone. Is he involved in the babies' disappearance? Is that why he's disappeared?

Disappointing series by otherwise wonderful author  Apr 3, 2006
Warning: if you are a Blackstock fan, please don't blast me for this review; I am too! But this book made me so frustrated I had to force myself to finish it. Blair has not become any more likeable since the first book, and that's a problem considering she's the main character. Truth be told: there are no likeable characters in this book. This book seems to be so plot driven that the characters are forced to commit every action whether it seems in their nature or not. I don't understand why the Owen sisters even live in Cape Refuge, everyone in town is mean and stuck-up. Every cop or agent in the book is an imbecile. Morgan is so passive she spends most of her time either oblivious to what's going on around her or sobbing. Blair is so aggressive, she truly is a woman only God could love (hey, I have days like that too, but Blair seems to be stuck in a rut). She runs roughshod over everyone and they give in to her, even when it doesn't make sense. I love the idea of Hanover House and Cape Refuge, but I won't be finishing this series. I can't. Too many implausibilities and the power of the message of Jesus was lost. That said, I loved Newpointe 911, Sun Coast Chronicles, and many other books by Blackstock, but this series just isn't worth your time.
 
Praise for book 2  Feb 19, 2006
I love books in series. Whenever I finish a book that I have enjoyed, I want more. I like the way that Blackstock introduces a few more characters in each book and gives you a chance to get to know them before the next book. Her characters are believable and I admire their "humanness" (if that's a word). She does a very good job of working the scripture theme into the books without jamming it down your throat. Her books give me a reason to pause and reflect. Good job, Terri! Book 2 is a hit with me.
 
Loved Loved Loved  Oct 29, 2005
I could not put this book down. I think I hold the record for reading through this novel so quickly. I love the series Mrs. Terri Blackstock has written.

Can you ask for more?  Sep 5, 2005
TERRI BLACKSTOCK creates the atmosphere for a fabulous second book by the last chapter of Cape Refuge. On impulse, I couldn't wait to go to the library and check out the second. Blaire and Cade are back with a romance slowly starting to unfold. But, one problem, Blaire's not a Christian.

The story begins with Cade running over a pedestrian that decides he needs to just hop in the road. But, the secret of this pedestrian will take Blaire and Cade on a scary journey. Cade disappears, and when a letter comes back saying Cade is married and is happy, Blaire can't believe it. This is the basis of the fact of a real relationship unfolding. SO, she sets out to find him, and its her courage that saves his life.

But, an ending that will leave you smiling, is the icing of the cake that Blackstock presents.
