Stop the Threat

When a small-town arms its teachers, they think they’ve found the answer to improving school security. School Resource Officer Jeff Stone must implement the new gun-carry policy he opposes. English teacher Ellen McCall has reasons for not wanting to carry a gun, reasons she hopes to keep buried in the past. The pair find themselves embroiled in controversy when the policy divides the town and triggers a series of events, both unexpected and deadly.

Five Star Review on Goodreads.com "The story line in this book is controversial, and I applaud an author willing to take on the subject. The author does an excellent job of presenting different viewpoints on the subject of arming teachers in the classroom. She also presented many of the factors contributing to gun violence: depression, anger, mental illness, drug use, and child abuse. The characters are well defined and interesting, showing the good, the bad, and the ugly of humans. The challenges of gun violence faced by society in this day and time are real, and I was impressed by the author's ability to show how a 'one answer fits all' does not apply. A five star read, for sure." -- Nora Wolfenbarger, author of The Promise.
