KINDLE NOOK AUDIBLE KOBO APPLE

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina, Summit Lake seems too pristine for violent crime. But two weeks ago, law student Becca Eckersley was murdered in one of its quaint lakefront houses. The daughter of a powerful attorney, Becca was ambitious, hard-working, and beloved. And, while the town reels with grief, the police are without a suspect.

To investigative reporter Kelsey Castle, the savagery of the crime, and the determined efforts to keep the case quiet, all hint at something far more sinister than a random attack.

Brand New Release from Terry Toler. “Terry Toler is a well written, rising star in fiction.” Michael DeAngelo.

The Universal Church of the Red Planet controls all the religious and political institutions on Mars. Bibles are banned and the people oppressed by religious remissions imposed on them by the church.

That is used to justify the oppression and persecution of women, by men and the church.

A young girl, Abbey, discovers a copy of an original scribed manuscript of the Bible with the accurate account of the Eden story and sets out to reveal what she has learned to the masses by posting a thesis with copies of the original account on the Vandenberg Church doors under the name Martian Luther…
