One of my favorites of Blackstock's work so far. Though it was written in 1995, the only thing that felt dated was the use of a car phone and the lack of a cell phone. During a plane crash, the owner and the potential buyer both realize how very empty their lives are. The subsequent hospital stays and hunt for the bad guy are a great balance between hunting the would-be killer and in beginning to open their lives up very slowly to more people around them. A lot of parts of this one were really endearing and there is a strong Christian message.
