James Whitaker
is far from being the perfect Christian. Having abandoned his
faith during his teen years and spent several years in prison,
he returns home to Washington, D.C., yearning only to spend time
with his devout, long-suffering mother. However, his plans for a
perfect homecoming are thwarted when he is attacked shortly
after release, and then targeted by a distraught father bent on
revenge for the disappearance of his young daughter. These
events threaten not only to destroy his life, but the lives of
his family, his friends, and the pastor and first lady of a D.C.
mega church. Along the way he is assisted by a young social
worker whose efforts to help James only exacerbate her own
struggles and yearning for companionship.
Could these
events have something to do with a prophecy he received as a
child? Or are they the natural repercussions of a fateful
decision made several years ago? In this Christian fiction novel
set in the gritty urban environs of the nation’s capital, drama,
suspense and romance come together to create a compelling and
realistic story that illustrates the unwavering faithfulness of
God and the virtues of perseverance.
