But when the killer turns his crosshairs on them, Oliver must protect them all before time runs out.

“Ava, when the shooting starts, I need you to dive down.”
“Okay. But what about you?”
“I’ll be fine.”
Oliver kept zigzagging, but the car stayed with them, the driver not moving a muscle but keeping the car close.
“We’re going to keep moving and hope they’ll either back off...or play chicken with us.”
But the vehicle advanced and tapped the back bumper.
“Now they’re getting serious,” Oliver said.

When the host goeth forth against thine enemies,
then keep thee from every wicked thing.
—Deuteronomy 23:9
Life really does imitate art. When we were writing this series, we heard the news each day. Hurricanes, floods and mass shootings, not to mention other horrible things happening in the world. Sometimes our stories ring true to what can take place in real life. We write to entertain and to enlighten, always offering the promise of the Lord’s grace and forgiveness. We don’t take that lightly, but with careful prayer and consideration.
This was a tough story to write but we all agreed our portrayal of our military characters had to be handled with care and respect. We wanted to get things right.
I hope I did that with Oliver and Ava’s story. Any mistakes
