Lucas Smothers, nineteen and from the wrong end of town, has been arrested for the rape and murder of a local girl. His lawyer Billy Bob Holland is convinced of Lucas's innocence but proving it means unearthing the truth from a seething mass of deceit and corruption. A corruption endemic in the way it can be only in a gossipy small town where everybody knows everybody else's business. Billy Bob's relationship with Lucas's family is not an easy one—years back he was a close friend of Mrs Smothers, too close according to her husband Vernon.

The idea with this text is that the Proverbs life is a much better life. The reason for saying that is because it leads to either no unpleasant consequences or to very few unpleasant consequences. So this text is about improving a person's decision-making skills, about reducing the unpleasant consequences that result from bad decisions, and about showing that the Proverbs life produces a much better life. There is one main theme that is presented throughout. If people want to live a good life and experience very few unpleasant consequences, then they need to study the scriptures, ...

When most people think about a true love story, they naturally envision a couple jumping into a bed and making mad passionate love to each other. If the scene is from a movie or from a television show, then they would probably see the two going into a bedroom together and then waking up the next day lying next to each other. However, while that in many cases might be an example of true love, it pales in comparison to the true love that God the Father had showed to human beings when He had offered His only begotten Son on the cross of Calvary. John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world, ...

This text was written to do a detailed study of the kings of Israel from the first king, named Saul, to the last king, named Zedekiah. After Solomon, the nation of Israel divided into two separate kingdoms. The southern kingdom was the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. The northern kingdom was the other nine tribes, which had included Manasseh and Ephraim because of the double portion inheritance that was given to Joseph. The Levites were not included with either kingdom because they did not own any property. But as will be seen in this text, they were mostly in the southern kingdom and with ...

This short book has been written to share a couple of very important spiritual truths. The first, called the Eternality of Bible Truth, maintains that every word of the Bible has always been true even before it was spoken or written. The second truth is that the Old Testament saints probably did not hear God's audible, out loud voice. That simple statement is not meant to sound heretical. Those words are also not meant to deny anything that Christians have traditionally believed about God. The real message is that what we have many times just accepted as truth in the Bible may in fact not ...

This book has been written to share what I discovered during a unique experience in late 1989 and early 1990. While that experience was not very pleasant, the discoveries that I made have more than made up for any of those anxieties which I felt. After having been a Christian for a little over twenty-two years, I suddenly and without warning lost my job. Since at that time I had been faithful in the Lord's work for over fifteen years, plus had also done very well within my profession, being released from my employment did not seem logical. Therefore, from the very beginning, I acknowledged ...

This book has been written mainly to share with others what the Lord has done for me. These pages describe key events from my youth and explain how I grew up in a good home with good parents, in an average family environment. Nearly everything about my early life had been ideal. I had lived in a fairly small town, during what had seemed to be a fairly good period in our nation's history - the fifties and sixties. As I approached my teen years, the future looked bright except for one very important fact. I did not know the Lord as my Savior. Because of that, my whole existence from a ...

Many people may find this text offensive. But my desire for many years has been to understand why so many people who regularly attend church do not get more involved in the church's ministries. While not everyone will agree with my general conclusion, it is that most of those individuals are probably not really saved. I do not want to be a judge or sound judgmental. But the simple fact is that the Bible teaches throughout that the Christian is a life of ministry and service for the Lord by the true followers of Christ. So as will be discussed in the following pages, one of my conclusions is...

This short book has been written to share a couple of very important spiritual truths. The first, called the Eternality of Bible Truth, maintains that every word of the Bible has always been true even before it was written. The second truth is that a person does not have to know the literal name of Jesus or anything about Him to be saved. That simple statement is not meant to sound heretical. Those words are also not meant to deny the Lordship of Christ or His sacrificial death on the cross at Calvary. The real message that is being conveyed by those words is that a person does not have to ...

Edgar-palkitun Burken suosittu ja kiitelty Dave Robicheaux -sarjan jatko-osa. Vaikutusvaltaisen Sonnierin perheen menneisyys on synkkä kuin Louisianan jokisuiston yö. Murhayritys ja poliisin kuolema vetävät Robicheauxin mukaan perheen hulluuden, murhien ja insestin verkkoon.

Etsivä Dave Robicheaux taistelee jälleen hyvän puolella pahaa vastaan hikisessä ja väkivaltaisessa Louisianassa, kun menneisyys palaa viheliäisesti häiritsemään nykyisyyttä. Neljäkymmentä vuotta sitten tapahtunut ammattiyhdistysmies Jack Flynnin ristiinnaulitseminen jäi aikanaan selvittämättä. Nyt Flynnin tytär Megan palaa New Iberiaan, Lousianaan, ja on selvää, ettei hänen perheensä verinen menneisyys voi enää jäädä peittoon.

Louisialainen ex-poliisi Dave Robicheaux kohtaa omat demoninsa ja brutaalin vastustajan tässä synkässä trillerissä. Robicheaux joutuu selvittämään kahta murhaa, jotka eivät näytä liittyvän toisiinsa. Molemmista syytetään kuitenkin samaa miestä, lahjakasta blues-muusikkoa. Robicheaux uskoo muusikon olevan viaton. Asian todistaminen käy vaikeaksi, kun vastassa on lähes yliluonnollisen paha mies.

Lentokone putoaa mereen. Ex-kyttä ja ex-alkoholisti Dave Robicheaux onnistuu pelastamaan ainoan henkiin jääneen. Poliisisukeltajien saapuessa paikalle huomataan, että yksi ruumiista on kadonnut. Robicheaux alkaa tutkia tapausta. Hän kietoutuu takaisin unohtamaansa rikoksen maailmaan, jossa tuntuu olevan liikaakin houkutuksia.
