Rating:  Summary: Very good ending Review: This reminds me of the Jeckyl and Hyde syndrome that believers go through.
Rating:  Summary: Superlative...Profound...Powerful!!! Review: This was my first journey into the world of Bill Myers, and I can't say enough about how compelling a journey it was!! I was glued to this book and literally couldn't put it down. Oh, sure, there were those times I had to fight myself not to pick it up..you know, like at work, on the road, wherever I could find a spare minute. Myers writes with incredible power and conviction, and you come to really care for his characters, and in particular Michael Coleman, who doesn't convince easily, but takes a chance by having the blood of Christ put into his own bloodstream and genetic make-up, thus altering the way he views the world and people. Of course there are the villains, and you actually care for them as well. Then there's Katherine Lyon, his sponsor, who he ultimately discovers was one of his victim's spouses, and the story blows you away!! I've been in the criminal justice system for over 20 years, and I could completely relate to this vicious killer - Michael Coleman - and Myers description of his profound change almost brought tears to my eyes and softness to my heart. There are other subplots as well, but I won't spoil it for you. This book is relatively inexpensive on Amazon, so you can pick it up without breaking your pocketbook. If you want inspiring, this is it. If you want powerful, riveting, and the rest, this is it!! Five stars can only minimize what I'd like to give it - how about 20 stars!!
