Josh is thirty-two. He is marked as the next victim of a terrifying curse from the darkened sky of Golgotha. A death sentence that echoes down across two thousand years.

Reviews

[Cathy · Rating 3 out of 5]

I read this book because I was looking for another book I had read a long time ago. The strange thing is they have som much in common yet I'm sure this is a different book. The fairly specific Biblical connection is the same, but the book I remembered was narrated by the central character and there are some other plot differences.

Quite enjoyable read!
