I received a free copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

Police Officer Brett Reed had been fighting to get custody of his 5 year old daughter Quinn. Instead his drug and alcohol addicted ex-wife gets full custody. Her behavior causes Quinn to be found wandering in her pajamas, blocks from home, looking for her dog Max. As if Brett didn’t have enough stress, now there’s a person maiming pedophiles and leaving their appendages in geocaching sites. He needs to find the criminal before he strikes again.

This was a very emotional book for me. The heartbreak that Brett went through daily over not being able to keep his daughter safe was just so heart rendering. Then to see the psychologist connect and care so much for Quinn right from the beginning while struggling with her own demons, just melted my heart. I’m not sure if the author intended for this to be a Christian novel, but there were a few references to God, not in a preachy kind of way, so even a non Christian can enjoy it. I think this novel was a perfect example for those of us that persevere, that our struggles and trials in life are meant to make us stronger. This was a hard to put down crime novel with many tearjerker moments, so be sure to have some tissues nearby.

What caught my eye first about this novel was the title. Our family are slightly obsessed with Geocaching, the kids adore it. What I wasn’t expecting was the obsession the novel became to finish it.

The story has a little bit of everything, a divorced couple that doesn’t think the other can properly care for their child, a murderer that disassembles bodies and hides them in geocaching locations. Which honestly, gives me reason to pause the next time we all head out on our adventures in caching. What is even stranger is that I am not all that against some of the victims that the murder chooses. A novel that causes me to think who really am I routing for is a rare experience for me. Once the media catches whiff of this unusual murderous spree- it takes on a whole new level of understanding human behavior. Would you be one of those people that could not be curious enough to go geocaching just to see what you find? I know we all initially say “Yes, I could or would never knowingly search that out!”, but deep down we are a curious breed.

Cache A Predator is one of my favorite reads this year, which I plan on reading again. While it may be disturbing in nature at time, it is still an amazing well written book. Keep in mind that the book is written to bring awareness to child abuse and truly is supporting the spread of exposing the very tough heartbreaking topic. ( )

I LOVED this book. I received it as a Christmas present as I'm an avid geocacher. My parter laughed at the book title but I wasn't going to let that put me off. I could not put this book down. There are so many twists and turns, the characters are likeable and it was an all round pleasure to read. ( )

What a book!! This will bring out your deepest thoughts, stirring them up and making your heart burst. It will open your eyes to the dark world that many people suffer from whether it be alcohol / drug abuse, child abuse, mental illness and more. On top of which comes the most cutest, loveable little girl, Quinn and her loving father Brett, who will melt your heart.

There's a predator on the loose with one mission on his mind - to rid the local area of pedophiles, to keep the children in the area safe so they don't have to undergo the same torturous childhood that he had gone through. How does he do this and what body parts does he hide in the geocaching sites? You will have to read the book but be prepared for some 'coarse' words here and there, bringing out the true flavour of the mystery.

Officer Brett Reed, Quinn's father, along with his partner Clay try to track down the predator. Yet Brett has worse problems to deal with much closer to home. His addict of a wife sinks lower into despair whilst having custody of their only daughter Quinn. His daughter is found in the street on her own and is taken into protective care. You would think it would be a straight forward handing over to the father but no, it turns out to be the worst thing that could have happened.

The book shows how years of child cruelty can affect those in later life and how the suffering is passed on to their loved ones. Personally it made me really think about how unfair the legal system is, and in this case how ludicrous it is when dealing with the custody of children towards fathers, it also brings to light frightening potential flaws in trusted protective services that will make may your skin crawl.

Get ready for the story twists, unexpected moments, the holding of breath and the emotional grab of this brilliant thriller, you won't want to put this one down. ( )

I loved that geocaching was used in this story, just that the find was so strange. Quinn, age 5, is a very couragous, smart little girl. Her father, officer Brett Reed, has had a very tough time trying to get her back with him and away from her alcohlic mother. The villain makes you sad and yet pleased with his justice. As a whole this was an action packed book, I will be reading more of Weidenbenner books . ( )
