Vanished: A Novel

Rate this book
This electrifying and heart-pounding sequel to Without Warning combines a profound understanding of a terror-filled world with realistic portrayals of Christ at work in people's lives. Held hostage in Israel by radical Islamic terrorists, Jessica Cain's survival hangs on a chance encounter with a total stranger and the slim possibility that somehow her father will find her.

I’m a follower of Jesus, a writer, novelist, pastor ret. Went to school for awhile. Graduated a couple of times. Mentored some young people. Did other stuff, too.
I’ve been in vocational ministry for 59 years, an older version now of the kid God called out of generations of farming families into Christian ministry.
I have flunked retirement three times. I meet with business and professional guys in my living room on Wednesday mornings to talk about their spiritual journey.
My readers are my final “flock of sheep” (with maybe a few old goats thrown in).
I’m a widower with 2 married children, 7 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren.
These days, I write books and a weekly blog called PERSPECTIVE, about life as I see it.
From my youth until today, I’ve sought honest answers to three great questions:
1) who is God in my life right now?
2) who am I in this powerful new season of my life?
3) what shall I do with the years that remain?
Not your questions yet? Perhaps they should be.
If you wish to write, know I enjoy hearing from my readers, and do my best to answer every one. Email: ward@wardtanneberg.com

Wow! An unputdownable novel! Yep, from the first page right through to the very end.

Basically, the plot is this: a young American is kidnapped by Islamic terrorists. Her parents, of course, long to find and rescue her. To know the rest, you must read the book, which is very realistic, depicting today's world and the horrendous acts these terrorists perform in the cause of ???

I only gave this 2 stars because I wasn’t able to make it more than about halfway through. It is well-written but I just don’t like the terrorist plots. Too much killing and rape.
