Synopsis

Will hell claim them for their sins, or will they find peace in ridding the world of a murderer?

Karl and Deborah Munson had it all, until the unthinkable happened—their only child, Naomi, was brutally raped and murdered. Suddenly, their perfect suburban life is turned into a nightmare. With their child’s murderer, a serial killer on the loose, and their child gone, the Munson’s plunge into their own personal hells as they try to come to terms with the unthinkable crime that has been committed. Neither can lean on the other. Neither can find peace.

As Karl and Deborah struggle, the comfort they’d previously found in their faith also fails them. How could a loving God allow such a horrific thing to happen? While Deborah deals with her grief through alcohol, Karl is presented with an opportunity for revenge. But he’ll have to decide: is taking the life of a killer divine providence, or will forgiving that man allow Karl and his wife the peace that they need to live a life without their daughter?

Death is looming, danger is lurking. What’s worth saving—the memory of their daughter or their souls for the sins that they are suddenly capable of committing?

À propos de l'auteur

Obed Olivarría was born in Mexicali, Mexico and spent his youth as a fully bicultural transnational citizen. He has a passion for writing both fiction and nonfiction, public speaking, composing, arranging, and performing mostly jazz music, as well as traveling around the world. He loves the thrill of adrenaline-pumping activities, but also the quiet reflection he gets from writing and creating.His love for books started at an early age, as his parents were eager readers and owned thousands of books. His passion for writing was born after winning a city-wide short story competition while in high school in Arizona. The publication of this in a local journal inspired him to continue creating worlds and characters in print.Obed has worked as a youth and young adult pastor, as a freelance graphic designer, as a session musician, as a ministry consultant, and as university dean. Having worked at every level of the education system, from pre-k to university, has given him an expedition to the human psyche. He has a dynamic love of life and ministry, and he is a deep thinker, and an honest intellectual to the Christian gospel.Obed lives in sunny Orange County, California with his charming wife and two energetic children, where he works as a school psychologist by day. In the future, Obed hopes to be able to continue to write inspiring books that entertain, but also challenge the status quo. On a personal level, he would like to visit every country in the world, perhaps drawing inspiration from these travels for another great story.
