An unexpected encounter with strangers changed everything about reporter Jannia Redmon’s life…A gripping story packed with action, surprise, satisfying romance, and international intrigue…

It all started with a taxi one Saturday morning outside a fast-food restaurant....

Jannia Redmon, a newspaper reporter, is an aspiring novelist always on the lookout for promising plot ideas. One weekend, while absorbed in her morning coffee and newspaper at McDonald's, she sees a battered white taxi waiting outside. Why would someone take a taxi to a fast-food restaurant?.

Curious, Jannia follows the taxi and its unusual fellow travelers...and is plunged into a world of imperiled strangers and international intrigue. When a handsome, mysterious musician asks her to take on a startling responsibility that could alter her life forever, she is thrust into the midst of a deadly plot-and emotional entanglements she's not sure her heart can handle.

An unexpected encounter packed with action, surprise, and satisfying romance.

With a background in Literature, Speech Pathology/Audiology and Special Education, Jenny Johnson (a pen name) worked and wrote for years as a university professor for the UNC System. Now retired and working part time, an item on her “never-too-late list” is fiction writing. The idea for her first novel, The Taxi, was sparked by a scene she observed during a vacation in the North Carolina mountains. The resulting novel she categorizes as faith-based or inspiration al romantic suspense. Visit Jenny at www.jennywjohnson.blogspot.com.
