Publisher's summary

Small-town lawyer Bethany Barclay is struggling to piece together the final months of her best friend's life. And as Bethany digs deeper into a complex web of lies surrounding her ties to the murder of her client's son, she remains unaware of the real battle in front of her. She thinks her friend Annabelle was killed because of a first-century Christian artifact. What Bethany doesn't know is that Annabelle died in the crossfire between two shadowy organizations. The Wilderness is dedicated to the destruction of all religious faith. The Garden, led by the Builder, carries on a grim, secret struggle to protect the church. But as Bethany discovers that she's a tiny part of a larger war, can she trust the Builder to save her?

Intriguing Mystery Novel - Kept my Attention

This is not about religion or a history of building churches. This is a mystery novel and, is well written and performed. There are twists and turns that will keep you engaged. My only disappointment is that the mysteries are not completely solved by the end of the book. There is supposed to be a sequel, which I would also read,- but I haven't seen it on Audible yet.
