Full of mystery, intrigue, and mind-blowing twists, Sinner explores what happens when the idea of tolerance leads to intolerance.

Some say roll with the punches. Drift with the tide. Nothing can stop the inevitability of change. There was a time when 300 Spartans disagreed with such mindless thinking and stood in the gap.

Now it's time for 3,000 to stand in the gap.

Sinner is the story of Marsuvees Black, a force of raw evil who speaks with wicked persuasion that is far more destructive than swords or guns. Beware all who stand in his way.

It's also the story of Billy Rediger and Darcy Lange, two unsuspecting survivors of a research project gone bad, who discover that they are perhaps the two most powerful souls in the land. Listen to them or pay a terrible price.

And it's the story of Johnny Drake, the one who comes out of the desert and leads the 3,000. Follow him and die.

Sinner tells the story of a free land where people who worship as they please and say what they believe are suddenly silenced in the name of tolerance.

Most will roll with the punches. Most will drift with the tide. But not all. Not the 3,000.

        Adam Verner's powerful characterization of evil Marsuvees Black is chilling. Verner makes believable Black's efforts to eliminate religious freedom in the United States. When Billy and Darcy's unexplained supernatural powers manifest, Verner captures their anxiety and fear with an understated portrayal, and then credibly depicts their inexplicable change in attitude. Verner's energetic performance of the final stand against evil at Paradise amid three thousand people is also gripping. However, Verner's excellent narration and characterizations can't make up for the flaws in Dekker's story, which is the conclusion of the series. Although similar to the books in the Left Behind series, Sinner is pedantic, predictable, and not at all typical of this author. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2009, Portland, Maine

        Supernatural horror writer Dekker sets the third book in the "Paradise" series (after "Showdown" and "Saint") in a futuristic world that prohibits the free speech of Christians. When a series of racially motivated crimes threatens the country's stability, Billy Rediger and Darcy Lange, empowered as a result of a research project gone wrong, demand that the Constitution be amended to classify religious speech as hate crimes. The mysterious and evil Marsuvees Black also returns to convince others to join him. However, one man, Johnny Drake, refuses to deny his Christian faith and will lead the 3000 who choose to disobey. Filled with prophetic imagery and dire warnings about a dangerous future civilization, Dekker's thriller, which also concludes his "Books of History Chronicles" ("Black, Red", and "White", among others), will be in demand by the author's many fans. Recommended for most visionary and CF suspense collections.
