Absolution

by Stephen Edger

And God spoke to Moses:
‘I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of Egypt, out of the land of slavery. You shall have no other Gods before me…’
…Moses said to the people:
‘Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you to keep you from sinning.’ (Exodus 20:2,20)

The villagers of Tumbleberry Green are keeping secrets. The village is beset with sin: murder, adultery and devil-worship. One man has vowed to carry out God’s justice and to remind the world what it is to fear God.

Ten sinners will have the opportunity to seek the Lord’s forgiveness in the next ten days or they will experience His wrath. The village is about to experience a justice not witnessed since Sodom and Gomorrah. Absolution is coming…

‘Absolution’ is a novelette of 24K words from the author of ‘Integration’, ‘Remorse’, ‘Redemption’, ‘Snatched’, 'Shadow Line' and ‘The Perfect Tonic’. As with Stephen’s previous works, ‘Absolution’ is a thriller that will keep you glued till the end.
