Een officier van justitie vraagt zich af of de man die vijftien jaar eerder is veroordeeld voor de moord op een aantal jonge vrouwen, wel de dader was.

Advocaat Jon Soliday is de topadviseur van senator Grant Tully - een ambitieuze man die alles in het werk stelt om voor de Democraten als gouverneur gekozen te worden. Jon en de senator zijn al jarenlang bevriend met elkaar. Ze delen echter ook een duister geheim: een nacht vol alcohol en drugs die resulteerde in de dood van een jonge vrouw. Twintig jaar later ontvangt Jon een anonieme brief waarin wordt geëist dat hij 250.000 dollar betaalt in ruil voor zijn stilzwijgen. Hij vraagt zich af wie er allemaal op de hoogte zijn van het noodlottige incident uit 1979. Plotseling wordt hij in het nauw gedreven door twee jongens die destijds zijn ondervraagd. Is het toeval dat ze juist nu naar voren komen? Jon weet dat iemand heeft gelogen over wat er twintig jaar geleden is gebeurd. Hij vreest dat diezelfde persoon baat kan hebben bij zijn veroordeling. Maar wie?

Following God’s call to cross cultural mission, Ellis’ experience from riots, political upheaval, physical hardship, and burn out, to caring for his wife, Adèle, through her Alzheimer’s, he would have been unable to hold fast without a robust biblical understanding of God’s providence and sovereignty. With feeling and honesty Ellis weaves anecdote with biblical meditation, allowing scripture (especially the pivotal Psalm 2) to form the lens through which the world, in all its frightening chaos, is viewed. A personal, pastoral, faith building read, it offers scriptural reflection not trite answers – robust biblical wisdom for guidance, encouragement and challenge for Christians of all ages and stages.
