CRIME SCENE JERUSALEM
WHAT IF A FORENSIC DETECTIVE COULD INVESTIGATE THE EVIDENCE SURROUNDING THE DEATH OF JESUS AND HIS RESURRECTION?
Maxwell Odom, one of the nation’s top crime-scene investigators, is in Jerusalem delivering a keynote speech to an association of Israeli police. The ugliness his job has forced him to witness has darkened his soul and calloused his mind. He has become cynical and unpleasant.

One evening he steps out of his hotel room to meet his driver and discovers he has been miraculously transported to ancient Jerusalem tin the days following Jesus’ crucifixion. According to his guide, the only way for Odom to return to his own time is by solving a historical crime—a conspiracy of the many to kill the One.

What’s the true reason Odom has been brought back in time? Can he ever get home? And who is his mysterious guide?

The Story Behind CSJ
About eight months ago an email popped up in my computer. Nothing new there. I get lots of email. This digital missive caught my attention because it came from someone I had lost contact with. Mike Nappa and I had worked together when he was with Barbour and I was doing the Perry Sachs novels. He had moved on and disappeared from my radar. Turns out, he landed with Cook Communications, the company that bought my first publisher. I did several books with them before we parted ways.
Mike had a book idea but didn’t know where to go with it. I read his description and thought it was unique and full of potential. I told him so. He asked me to write it. It’s not every day that an editor calls and says, “I’ve got this idea and I think you’re the man to do it.” So, I gave it some thought. Then I gave it more thought. After that, I thought about it some more. Truth is, I didn’t know how to make it work and told Mike so.
He asked me to write a proposal and some sample chapters.
Sigh. He began to call the genre “apologetic fiction.”
“That’s good,” I said. “I’ve been apologizing for my fiction for years.”
“Not that kind of apologetics, the kind that defends the faith.”
“Oh. I knew that.” It was the only reply I could come up with. Besides, I really did know what he meant, but I never turn down an opportunity to give an editor a bad time.
The goal was to create a compelling story about a man who must face the death and resurrection of Christ days after Jesus rose from the grave. He had to be man attuned to detail and evidence. In short, he needed to be a crime scene cop. The question is: How would an expert in evidence look at the events that happened from the upper room to empty tomb.
CRIME SCENE JERUSALEM is my answer to that.
Mike Nappa is no longer with Cook but the editors who took over the project have shown the same zeal as he did. For that I am thankful.
So, that’s how the book began. You have to read it to find out how it ends.

The INCUMBENT

There’s a deadly countdown in Santa Rita…

THE INCUMBENT: Nothing could have prepared Maddy Glenn for the hostile visit from the Chief of Police -- or for the terrible news he brought. Lisa Truccoli, her friend and treasurer of her last campaign has been abducted. The only thing left at the scene of the crime is a shocking clue – a clue with Maddy’s name on it.

And the game begins. Maddy soon learns that Lisa was only the first victim. With a haunting past and dangerous present, the walls that distance Maddy from faith begin to crumble. She embarks on a desperate hunt for answers, finding more shocking clues–clues in a dangerous game the abductor wants to play -- with Maddy

BEFORE ANOTHER DIES

Running for congress is hard work for Madison Glenn. But she never expected it to be murder.

Running the coastal city of Santa Rita. Campaigning for a congressional seat. Staying one step ahead of a high powered corporate broker' demands. Life couldn't get more difficult for Mayor Maddy Glenn-or so she thinks.

Enter three murders in three days. Rumors fly of a serial killer at large, and the press has a field day with Santa Rita's embattled mayor. Especially when a strange pattern emerges: the victims were all fans of a radio talk show, whose enigmatic host specializes in the weird and unusual. Coincidence or clue?

For Maddy, the search for answers is about to become personal. Refusing to play it safe, Maddy is caught in a lethal game in which seconds count. But even her renowned grit and tenacity-and her emerging faith--may not be enough to prevent more brutal deaths.

Including her own.
