    About this ebook

    Rachel wants to save her brother, but the world is hurtling toward war...

    Rachel Connor has qualified as a physician, but her brother’s pain is haunting her. Locked in prison for murder, he carries the power of life and death in his hands. New Zealand has settled in an uneasy peace, but Rachel’s father, the Prime Minister, sees the threat of a nuclear holocaust on the horizon.

    Love is calling Rachel into the highest cost. The security of her home is lying in the balance. How far will she go to try to protect the world from the enemy within her borders? How much will she sacrifice to try to save her brother’s mind?

    The Crux of Salvation is the third in the A New Kind of Zeal trilogy, a spiritual and psychological suspense novel for people of all walks of life. If you enjoy compelling characters, powerful drama, and stories with a New Zealand flair, then you’ll love Michelle Warren’s books of hope under fire.

    Michelle Warren

    Michelle lives in New Zealand. She is a mother, a writer, and a doctor. She enjoys debating, and will quite happily explore religion, agnosticism, atheism and science with anyone who’s keen. Raised Anglican, baptized in the Pentecostal church, trained in science, having wrestled with life and death, Christianity, the Church, and God, Michelle has poured the heart of her discoveries into her writing, creating a fictional representation of Jesus and the early church in order to try to unveil and translate Christianity into our setting today. Through this new genre, which is essentially the parable, she has sought to express something of the deepest of our human realities today: our struggles, our flaws, and a potential journey into realizing our full potential.
