In the lower level of Dr. Vince Monahan's upscale home in Atlanta, Georgia, the physician prepares the private operating room for his next "patient." Vince was raised in the Church of Truth, home schooled with other parishioner's children, and grew up memorizing The Holy Writ, his focus on the 11th Commandment. All of his life, the renowned surgeon was led to believe he was chosen by God to do great things. Twenty-miles south of Atlanta in the small community of Justyce, Zeb Parrish mourns his daughter's death as he takes custody of his granddaughter Lillie. When Zeb befriends ex-con T.J. Bennett, opening his home to the drifter, the older man tells T.J. he needs help keeping up the property that has been in the Parrish family for generations. And when Lillie goes missing, T.J. faces a difficult decision: Should he risk losing his recently found freedom, or do what feels comfortable and run from commitment like he's done all of his life? Time is running out to find the child before Monahan takes from Lillie what she can never have back.

From the gripping beginning to the surprising end, you'll find yourself hating to put this one down." - Bestselling author Jerilyn Dufresne "As all the pieces fall into place the ending has your mouth hanging open saying, "I never saw that coming " Amazon review
