THE CONVERT: The Florida Campaign #5

by David Edward

The purge begins at dawn. Nineteen workers branded as doubters, heretics, and waverers kneel in Tam-Pa's central square as Sister Sable pronounces judgment. Rock Rogers watches from the shadows, his resistance network tensed for extraction, knowing that every moment inside the city drains his fading gifts. He can feel her presence like pressure behind his eyes, searching, probing, hungry. The Dawn Festival approaches, and with it Sable's ultimate demonstration of power. Rock pulls the condemned from under the executioner's blade. Tomás leads sixty-one refugees through the night toward expedition lines. And Rock realizes the horrifying he and Sister Sable are connected, tuned to the same impossible frequency. When they finally meet, only one will walk away.

Reviews

[Brendan Onfrichuk · Rating 5 out of 5]

A truly foreboding, oppressively atmospheric piece

It's Rogers alone and up against the zealous followers of a new-age cult. This entry offers extensive monologuing and insight to Rock's character. Readers will gain an understanding about what compels a man to push forward against certain destruction. The whole thing comes to a boiling point and seques into a confrontation between two forces of nature. I especially enjoyed this book's use of surreal sensory details.
