Where He Waits · David A. Kessinger

My safety videos have been watched more than 400,000 times. The one about the second location passed 70,000 in a day.

I could always tell who had been trained.

In my old work I waited for people in garages. I looked for the spot where a person feels safe and stops looking up. A predator looks for the same spot. He's watching for the woman who sets her bags down, opens her phone and forgets the door.

The twelve places

The gas station
The store parking lot
The stranger who needs your help
The ATM
The parking garage
The morning walk
The rideshare pickup
The hotel elevator and your room door
The empty road

Your family code word. How to use one, and four cards to cut out.
My Numbers. A page to fill in tonight, in pen, and keep by the phone.
Two wallet cards. The eight rules I'd keep closest, bank-card size.
A lock-screen picture for your phone.
Where the advice comes from. Every source, with its link.

Keep one. Print one for your daughter. That one is allowed: you may print one copy for one member of your family.

The book is the one I would give my daughter. It's practical without being cold.
