Publisher's summary

A Soviet officer in Cuba during the Cold War. A crash strands him in America. A former ally turns his worst enemy. Can he survive and find a way home?

At the height of the Cold War, a plane crash strands a Soviet officer stationed in America. Living among those he once thought to be the enemy, he transforms into the capitalist he once fought against. His life is entangled with a merciless Cuban prosecutor out for revenge. Both men are torn between ideologies, save for one: their ever-hardening rejection of God.

The Pardon is filled with action and uncompromised Christian truth. The story contrasts freedom and capitalism with the devastating realities of communism. The plot explores the consequences of human choices, spinning an intricate web of envy, treachery, life and death, and how God's search for man transcends all political and geographic boundaries.

The story

Shush a great storyline. Really original, unpredictable and meaningful!
And such a great performance by Roy Worley!
The beginning is a little slow with a lot of history/narration.

Great Writing and Story Telling

I really enjoyed listening to this book. It was a great combination of historical fiction, drama, suspense and a clear presentation of the Christian gospel. I thought Roy Worley did an excellent job narrating the story and keeping me engaged. I highly recommend this book and this author and can't wait for his next book the Ransom to become available.
