The Tenth Plague
Can they stop the killer before the final plague?
Marc and Gillian Thayer's vacation resort becomes a grisly murder scene--a killer is using the ten plagues of Egypt as his playbook for revenge.
When their friend turns up dead, Marc and Gillian enlist the help of a retired homicide detective to investigate the bizarre plagues. Meanwhile, more trouble heads their way. A stranger is after the Thayers' newly adopted baby, and a new Bible translation team based at the resort draws fire from angry protesters when they propose to merge the Bible with the Qur'an. As the stakes increase with each successive plague, the Thayers must make sense of their story's intersection with those of the others at the resort—and of their own dark pasts.
In this "chilling tale that keeps readers turning pages and pondering its truths" (C. J. Darlington), the Thayers must unravel the truth. But will they uncover the killer's bitter agenda before the tenth plague—the death of the firstborn son?
Note: This is a clean Christian thriller. It does not contain profanity, vulgarity, or sexual content. It does contain a suspense story with overt faith elements and mild violence.
