This exciting suspense thriller filled with interesting characters. Sarah Hamilton, a beauty queen in a Wisconsin town, becomes involved with a dangerous man named Wayne Kirchner whose criminal activities lead to murder. Robert Alma, a private detective from Chicago, is hot on the trail of Wayne. Thomas Angelique, a wealthy young businessman, becomes ensnared in a tangled web of intrigue. Embarking on a spiritual journey, Sarah makes several confessions at St. Faustina Church where she seeks absolution and advice from her parish priest to whom she tells her innermost secrets, confident that he will honor the seal of confession. A kind young girl named Chloe, whose mysterious mystical gifts include precognition, plays an integral role in events that move steadily to a shocking, dramatic resolution. ********************************************* Excerpt: Time seemed to change into slow motion as Sarah landed on the carpet. She saw blood spurt from her wound. Her mind filled with surrealistic images, reminding her of Salvador Dali paintings that she had studied in college in an art history class. She found herself falling to the floor of St. Faustina Church. The front doors of the church had been blown open by a powerful wind that blew through the church. On the altar there was a huge Eucharistic host from which red and white beams of light radiated. She heard a voice in her mind, and she found herself responding to the voice. “The wind blows cold and freezes the land. Do you not seek warmth?” “Your grace is sufficient for me,” Sarah replied. “The sun is setting as the day departs. Do you not seek light?” “The light of your face is sufficient for me.” “Your blood flows from you. Do you not seek life?” “Your life sustains me, and I live through your Body and Blood.” “So be it. Then live through me, with me, and in me.” “So be it,” she agreed. The red and white beams of light radiating from the Eucharistic host on the altar became so bright that the world seemed to be immersed in a sea of light. Sarah fell into a deep sleep. ***************************************************************** Joseph Rogers has other writings that include: Moonlight Warriors: A Tale of Two Hit Men Sentinels at the Gates: A Telepathic Thriller Realm of Haden: A Space-Age Fantasy Maiden of Orleans: A Bayou Thriller The Powers Unseen: A Supernatural Thriller Wanderers of Worlds Travelers of Time The Magical Truths of Caroline Casey The Magical Truths of Phoenix Rising The Magical Truths of Betwixt and Between The Magical Truths of the Immortal Maiden Hallowed Eve, Hallowed Day: a supernatural suspense story A Princess and her Five Suitors: a fairy tale Wally the Wacky Wizard A Stranger in the Night Essential Things The Mysterious Gift A Magical, Mystical Christmas Mystery Child of Wonder: a modern Christmas drama Tobias, a Traveler: a drama in two acts Garden Sanctuary My Friend’s Obsession The Sword of St. Louis: a romantic drama Who Said It?: a whodunnit in two acts The author’s website is JoeRogers.homestead.com and has links to his Instagram and YouTube pages.
