    <![CDATA[Welcome to Pilotville, Louisiana, 1927, isolated outpost on the Mississippi River--a stilt village bounded by swampland to the horizon, accessible only by boat, an island of brotherly love in a sea of racism. Meet Hale Poser, a stranger with a bad hip who's come looking for his roots--a humble man, a righteous man, a miracle man. In the swamp beyond the cypress and the tupelo and veiled by Spanish moss lies a lingering evil. For years it slept in dreadful isolation. Now comes Hale Poser, and it will sleep no more. It will rain down on Pilotville, it will rise up like a river, and nothing but a miracle can stop this awful flood.]]>

    <![CDATA[Years ago I exposed myself to the possibility that Judaism might have great truths to offer, and Chever Torah (Jewish Bible study) rewarded my open mind with radical improvements in the way I live and view my Christian faith.<br/>-from the Introduction <br/><br/>After he spent five years attending Chever Torah, Athol Dickson found his faith radically changed-the result being a deeper relationship with God. In beautiful and simple language, <em>The Gospel according to Moses</em> illustrates Dickson's journey of faith exploring some of the primary theological differences and similarities between Christianity and Judaism. He draws generously on both Old and New Testament scriptures, looking at Christian and Jewish perspectives on topics such as suffering, grace vs. works, and the place of Jesus in the Hebrew Scriptures.]]>

    <![CDATA[What haunting legacy awaits deep beneath the barrios and wealthy enclaves of Southern California?<br/><br/>An idyllic Spanish mission collapses in the eighteenth century atop the supernatural evidence of a shocking crime. Twelve generations later the ground is opened up, the forgotten ruins are disturbed, and rich and poor alike confront the onslaught of resurging hell on earth. Caught up in the catastrophe are...<br/><br/>A humble shopkeeper compelled to leave her tiny village deep in Mexico to preach in America<br/>• A minister wracked with guilt for loving the wrong woman<br/>• An unimaginably wealthy man, blinded to the consequences of his grand plans<br/>• A devoted father and husband driven to a horrible discovery that changes everything<br/><br/>Will the evil that destroyed the <em>Misión de Santa Dolores</em> rise to overwhelm them? Or will they beat back the terrible desires that led to the mission's good Franciscan founder's standing in the midst of flames ignited by his enemies and friends alike more than two centuries ago?<br/><br/>From the high Sierra Madre mountains to the harsh Sonoran desert, from the privileged world of millionaire moguls to the impoverished immigrants who serve them, Athol Dickson once again weaves a gripping story of suspense that spans centuries and cultures to explore the abiding possibility of miracles.]]>

    <![CDATA[In an age of cynical detectives, it's refreshing to find a mystery  hero who stops to pray for guidance from time to time and who makes decisions based on ethics and morality. But Garr Reed, who runs a construction business in the small East Texas town of Mount Sinai, is no slogan-spouting icon of the Christian Right. He's a believable middle-aged man who has returned to his religious roots after a series of bad times (some of them chronicled in Athol Dickson's first book about him, <em>Whom Shall I Fear?</em>) and now needs all the help he can muster to get him through some more. His wife of 20 years, Mary Jo, recently diagnosed with breast cancer, is charged with killing a Catholic priest and seriously wounding a doctor who runs an abortion clinic. Reed learns that Mary Jo has connections to the doctor from her youth in New Orleans, and his search for the truth involves a mixture of powerful religions (including voodoo) and people of all political stripes--none of whom are completely free of sin. A strong story in a well-developed heartland setting. <em>--Dick Adler</em>]]>
