There’s nothing as convicting as words that threaten your daughter’s life. You want your kid back? Do just as I say. You do not know who I am. But I’ve studied you, you and your family. I’ve been watching you. You’ve been using people. Because you’re greedy. Now, it’s payback time. Terrifying for any parent, these words are especially grim for Senator Bruce Grable, whose guilt may be the reason his five-year-old daughter, Zoe, has disappeared. Or is it because of his wife, whose words make her sound more the victim than their daughter? Or their nanny, whose silence harbors her own secrets? One thing is for sure: The words hold the clues to finding Zoe alive. And it’s up to Special Agent Mackenzie Graham, a forensic psycholinguist, and FBI agent John Crowfeather to decode the messages in time. “I have just two words to say about this book: READ IT!” —AnnTatlock, award-winning author of Sweet Mercy and Promises to Keep “Plunge into the inner workings of an FBI investigation with this adrenaline-soaked story of Capitol Hill corruption and family intrigue. The pages just flutter away as the words hold all of the answers.” —Michael K. Reynolds, author of the acclaimed Heirs of Ireland series

From the Author I became fascinated with the science of forensic psycholinguistics when I met Dr. Sharon Smith, who was the FBI's only forensic psycholinguist until she retired. Her ability to parse out language, to detect deception, analyze threats, and discern identity from words, using scientific methodologies, convinced me that this was a subject on which I had to write.The words we use reflect not only our training and education, but our psychology as well. We are seldom aware of the depths of personality from which our language emerges. In "Words of Conviction," Mackenzie Graham is a psycholinguist recruited by the FBI. She's an agent without much street experience, but when the daughter of a powerful senator is abducted, her skills with words play a crucial role in the investigation.Kenzie teams up with veteran agent Scott Hansbrough and a Navajo agent, John Crowfeather. I don't know where these characters come from! But it is my joy to to work with them.As with all of my books, themes of faith emerge. Is God really relevant? Where is he when a child's life is on the line? When evil seems to have the upper hand?I love reading, and writing, mystery/suspense! We live in a dark world, but the Light has come--and the darkness will not prevail.

I really liked this novel of FBI suspense.The daughter of a well known senator is kidnapped and Kenzie, an FBI forensic psycholinguist, is brought in on the case. Her expertize at analyzing words and sentences will help them create a profile. This is her first field case and one agent in particular is not so sure she should be there.This novel combines action and suspense with an exploration of the stress this situation creates. The senator and his wife have a strained relationship and as we follow the case we wonder if their marriage will survive. Kenzie has some issues she needs to work through too. As a child she had been once locked in a closet that had spiders. Her sensitivity to spiders is important at the suspenseful end of the novel.Another issue Kenzie must address is spiritual. Her immediate supervisor, the agent who requested she be included in the case, is a strong Christian. He encourages her to renew the faith she has abandoned.White's novel is well written and has characters who are believable and well developed. It was interesting to see them work through their issues. It was also interesting to see how the FBI, in the form of Kenzie, can tell a great deal from how one communicates. For lovers of FBI suspense in the Christian genre, this is a top choice.I received a complimentary egalley of this book from the publisher for an independent and honest review.

They’ve offered McRib sandwiches at McDonalds on a limited basis, and the pretzel burger at Wendys has been for a limited time. Isn’t it exciting when you hear that one of these items are “back”? Back in 2005, I picked up a book for the church library called “Bloody Point”. I devoured it. I couldn’t wait until the author came out with a new book……… It took 8 years for that to happen. Last year Linda White was back with her first book in 8 years called “Seeds of Evidence” and she was just as exciting as ever. Now, I have “Words of Conviction” to pour through. This is one happy guy right here Special Agent MacKenzie (Kenzie) Graham has just finished taking down Senator Grable in a sting to catch him taking bribes. A successful win for the system and a chance to wind down from all of the intense work is interrupted with the notification that the Senator’s daughter has just been kidnapped. Kenzie must now work side by side with Senator Grable as they track down the clues to where his daughter may be and who may have kidnapped her. Using her expertise in linguistics, Kenzie works on baiting the kidnapper through an online bulletin board system. Late word from the family doctor that his daughter has diabetes ratchets the situation up several notches. Who is behind this kidnapping and what do they want? Can Kenzie read into the messages to convince the kidnapper to keep the girl safe? Do they find the girl before her diabetes takes over? Put away the dictionary and go BUY THIS BOOK!!!To say that this book is a great book is like saying the Eiffel Tower is a great landmark. This book does what I enjoy most in a great work of fiction, it teaches me at the same time that it entertains me. I’ve always been fascinated by words and word usage, guess that’s why I’ve always been a voracious reader. In the character of Kenzie, we see some of the inner workings of wordsmithing and how what we say really can tell more than just what’s on the surface. The characters in this book aren’t all Christians, but they have a regular interaction with someone that is. The story is very fast-paced, even considering that a lot of what the book is about it the waiting game concerning a kidnapping. There is enough going on in the side stories that tie everything together to keep it moving. I will say that I didn’t really like Kenzie, she seemed a bit aloof, but in the end I found out that her traits were a result of who she was and the environment she was raised in, but that with the right motivation everyone can overcome their past.Is this a "guy's book"? If you consider a book concerning bribery stings, kidnappings, motorcycles and more to be books that guys would enjoy, then yes, this is definitely a guy’s book. Throw in suspense and intrigue and murder, oh my! You’ve got the makings of a great work of Christian fiction.

"Words of Conviction" begins quickly and ends with a "bang" (literally) ; a heart-pounding, intrigue-filled, suspenseful story with just a whisper of impending romance.When Senator Bruce Gable's five year old daughter disappears from his home;, his ego-centric, under-handed, lucrative business deals may just have come back to haunt him. The FBI brings in Special Agent Mackenzie Graham, a forensic psycholinguist and Agent John Crowfeather,a Navajo veteran, to discern the encrypted meanings underneath the kidnapper's digital messaging. The Senator has many enemies, in addition to supposed "friends", who have plenty of reason to use his young daughter as a bargaining chip. It's up to Kenzie and Crow to locate this little girl and bring resolution to a crumbling family, and perhaps even to resolve some of their own lingering doubts and fears.I read and enjoyed Linda White's previous novel "Seeds of Evidence" and she has definitely scored again with "Words of Conviction".
