New Release: The Other Face of God by C. Robert Lee

Mix one part The Da Vinci Code with one part The Shack and one part The Thorn Birds, and you have The Other Face of God, book 1 in Circles of Destiny, an intelligent political/religious thriller series that is sure to make readers question their beliefs.

Sometimes faith is found in the eyes of a child…

In 1968 Father Doug Ryan, an angst-driven Los Angeles priest, is sent to Peru to investigate a padre accused of using mission funds to buy guns for Communist guerrillas. Mistakenly identified by Colonel Lopez, the corrupt future dictator, as the source of the padre’s gun money, Ryan is marked for torture and death. But his life is forever changed when an enigmatic image appears in a dying street urchin's eyes.

When Lopez sends soldiers to assassinate Daniel Barcea―a Professor of Anthropology who was responsible for freeing and settling 2,567 feudal serfs on their own incorporated farmland―and tries to destroy Barcea's land reform manuscript, Daniel's daughter Chabuca joins Ryan on a treacherous path to fulfill two missions: find the padre in the Andean wilderness and keep her father's work from enemy hands.

As they fight to protect the innocent, their growing relationship is tested, along with everything they ever believed in―and only they can show the world...

The Other Face of God.
