Rebecca Manguson travels to New York for a tender reunion with Matt Clark, the dashing former U. S. Navy officer with whom she survived a life-and-death battle in the timeless war of good versus evil. Within hours of arriving, however, she finds herself escaping from a kidnapping attempt and on the run, hiding from the man she should have been able to trust, heart, spirit, and soul.
Something ancient is at work, something that seeks to use American society to plant insidious seeds of evil in the minds and morals of its most vulnerable and hopeful citizens—children.
Uncovering and preventing this conspiracy takes Rebecca; her twin brother, Luke; Detective Sid Belcher; Bible scholar Dr. Eleanor Chapel; and a tested-but-renewed Matt from the gritty streets of Manhattan to the scenic shores of Chesapeake Bay, where Rebecca finds herself caught in a desperate showdown to prevent the death of a world leader and the domino effect that would allow corruption and destruction.
Compelling, well-written, and action-packed, By Many or By Few stands out among recent spiritual thrillers in presenting an entertaining mystery while adhering to Christian spiritual truth.
