The first book in the Seaport Suspense series

Ellen Jones, first introduced in the Baxter series, is enjoying a leisurely lunch at a Seaport restaurant when she overhears a private conversation at the table next to her—and disturbing accusations involving the husband of a woman she has recently befriended. But as Ellen digs through old newspaper articles and stumbles onto information too frightening to keep to herself, will she become enmeshed in speculation and gossip—or will she take the lead and become a catalyst for truth and healing?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Kathy Herman is no stranger to the Christian publishing industry. Before becoming a bestselling author and award-winning poet, Kathy worked on staff at the Christian Booksellers Association for five years. She gained eleven years of bookstore experience as a children's products specialist and drew on that expertise to conduct related seminars in the U.S. and Canada.

Kathy quickly rose to the rank of bestselling author when her first novel, TESTED BY FIRE, became a CBA bestseller shortly after its release. Since then, eight more of her novels have claimed the title of bestseller: ALL THINGS HIDDEN, THE REAL ENEMY, THE LAST WORD, THE RIGHT CALL,FALSE PRETENSES,DANGEROUS MERCY, RELENTLESS PURSUIT and NOT BY SIGHT.

Her contemporary, fast-paced novels weave inspirational messages into the storyline so effectively that a college professor in Houston utilized her books as required reading to educate students on the value of teaching through fiction. Kathy's books have also been widely used in book club discussion and Bible study groups.

Kathy and her late husband Paul have a blended family of three grown children and five "nearly perfect" grandchildren. Her hobbies include nature photography and bird watching--especially an ongoing fascination with hummingbirds. Kathy lives in the Northwest with an adorable cat named Prissy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kathy Herman Never Disappoints

I started reading Kathy Herman years ago, and I learned very quickly that I would need to clear my calendar for a couple of days when staring one of her books. I cannot put down her books once I start reading. I began “Shred of Evidence” the day before a dear friend was accused of a heinous crime. Ms Herman’s writing reminded me to get all the facts before jumping to conclusions. God used this fictional story to remind me to pray for those that are accused and those that hurt me. I thank God for the way He used this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Description doesn't do justice...
Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2008
Verified Purchase
Whomever is writing for Ms. Herman's back covers is not doing her novels justice, especially this one. I got into this series late because I just never could get into the idea of this book. But I loved the Baxter series and the Phantom Hollow and I wanted to fill in the blank. The descriptions of her books, never do the books themselves justice in my opinion, but here is a great story about a young family who just moved to Seaport. You begin with just flashes of their story and slowly Herman reveals more and more of their secrets. The ending is somewhat unbelievable, but that doesn't bother me. The journey of the whole book is incredible and the characters may be even stronger in this series than in the Baxter series as there are fewer to focus on. This is a great introduction to a great series.

Another intriguing book by Miss Sarah. Got caught up in it, and had gone cover to cover in one sitting. As always, she brings every character to life in my mind. I believe this will be an excellent series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kathy Herman is responsible for my lack of sleep!

I couldn't put this book down! Lack of sleep was so worth the amazing story and important lesson in this book. Kathy Herman has a brilliant way of putting the teachings of Jesus into lives of characters that draw you in! Thank you Kathy for being the vessel I needed! It seems timely that a woman who works for me has come to me with gossip about a family I know this week. I quickly changed this subject but now know God wants me to be a vessel for her. I pray I do that half as well as Kathy!

I just loved this book! Not only did it keep me up late reading but at the end it really gave me some things to think about in my own Christian walk. Kathy Herman is one of my all time favorite authors and she never lets me down. This book is a perfect example of her ability to take you into the characters lives and help you see the things in your own that may need addressing. You won't be disappointed!!
