    About this ebook

    Joseph Sandalwood is Good Samaritan, always willing to lend a hand regardless of the circumstances. But one day, the situation gets out of hand, and Joseph takes the fall. Branded a “cop killer” Joseph chooses to run from the law, rather than face capital murder charges for simply defending himself.

    Alone in the wilderness, he prays to a God that he doesn’t believe in. To his surprise, God sends an answer in the form of two messengers – Gabriel the angel and Elijah the prophet. Joseph has a choice: he can continue running aimlessly from the law, or he can become a servant of God. Joseph chooses the latter.

    Endowed with certain spiritual gifts, Joseph must roam the highways and byways preaching to lost souls and living off the land. If called upon, he must be prepared to take on special assignments.

    Joseph’s travels lead him to a place called Zion, a community that lives apart from the world, under the leadership of their prophet Bradiken Strong. But Joseph discovers that he has fallen in with a polygamous cult, and those who question the prophet have a habit of disappearing.

    When Joseph challenges Bradiken Strong, he is arrested, tried, and sentenced to death. The stage is set for a showdown between Joseph, a true prophet of God; and Bradiken Strong the false prophet.

    Kevin Diviness

    As a child, Kevin was an Air Force brat, living in Florida, Puerto Rico, Massachusetts and Texas. He continued his family's legacy of military service as a helicopter pilot in the Army National Guard/Reserves where he participated in Operation Iraqi Freedom, Operation Noble Eagle (homeland security), Operation Fuertes Caminos (road-building in Honduras), and numerous state activations to fight wildfires throughout Texas. His education includes two master's degrees in City & Regional Planning and Corporate Training & Development. Since his writing doesn't quite pay the bills yet, he works as Director of Quality Assurance for a multi-billion dollar transportation design and construction program. His hobbies include: downhill skiing, snowshoeing, alpine trekking, SCUBA diving, and travelling.
