Exposure by Brandilyn Collins



About the Book:

Kaycee Raye, a popular syndicated newspaper column writer makes fun of her own fears to help others get over their fears. Is her paranoia and fear making her 'see' things that aren't there or are the images and items that seem so real but then disappear really real? Is she crazy? Is she sane? Christian faith blended to make a thrilling ride of suspense that makes one wonder if Kaycee will survive.

My opinion:

Brandilyn Collins has written another great book. Exposure is a nerve tingling ride that you will be hard pressed to put it down, at least I was. The constant twists along with just enough terror to not overdo it, will keep you guessing. I was proven wrong a couple of times as I continued to guess who done it? Kaycee's fears are real and one would think staying alive through her way of helping others.

While some may seem leery of a Christian book having terror, murder and fear in it, it is definitely Christian. Kaycee's constant crying out to God in her prayers to get her through a dark, lonely night at home while waiting for whoever is stalking her, is the only thing that gets her through the night. Kaycee and the other characters rely consistently and constantly on God and their Christian faith. There is nothing inappropriate insofar as cussing, nudity and overt romance. It never ceases to amaze me that what we see in Hollywood today can be wrong with inappropriateness but a Christian fiction writer can write suspense without all the nudity and cussing and make it a great form of entertainment while still having characters grounded in Christian faith.

I would recommend you take a look at Zondervan's product page for more information on how to purchase the book. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is don't read it alone at night, unless you have every light on your house on and the curtains tightly closed!
