If the past teaches anything, its lesson is that religious freedom isn’t always free, and some men and women must risk all to preserve this freedom. The year is 1777. “Yours is a cause most splendid,” Robert Aitken is told. Despite the threat of prison or the hangman’s noose if caught, Congressional Journal and Common Sense publisher Aitken is determined to print much-needed Bibles for American colonial troops, churches, and families. The Royal Family alone has publishing rights to God’s Word, the British say, and any unauthorized printing of the King James Bible is not only illegal but a personal slap-in-the-face to the Sovereign. The penalty? The worst. Aitken’s “My King is the King of kings. To Him only will I answer.” And so, history is made.

Hearts will soar and voices sing if black-ops veteran Max Braxton and archeologist Kat Cardova find King David's music of the Psalms. But first, they must survive attacks from determined jihadists in this continent-jumping thriller. King David's long-lost music of his Psalms is the one missing piece in the Jews' preparations for a Third Temple in Jerusalem. When Muslim terrorists get word an archeological dig has unearthed clues to the music's whereabouts, they hunt archeologist Kat Cardova and black-ops veteran Max Braxton every step of their quest. From Dragot, Israel, to Petra, Jordan, to Dublin, Ireland, Wales, and back to the Holy Land, clues are unearthed and danger lurks. But Islamic extremists everywhere would battle to the death to prevent the treasure's discovery. Will Kat and Max succeed in their quest and succeed in getting home alive?
