Softness is the first thing eaten. Animals had gotten to the corpse, tearing the flesh off the skeleton and exposing the bone. The man standing over the body, his green-blue gaze the same shade as Caribbean waters if they ever froze, stared into the empty eye sockets of his former employee. Bloody, torn flesh, ribboned by some bird, hung down the dead man's cheeks. A breeze stirred the pine trees, their needles tapping against each other, whispering in a private conversation. Robert Maxim scanned the ground again, his gaze tracing the fight. Blood was splattered in the dirt. A lot of it. Phillip had died slowly. He'd tried to pull the knife free, but the black, blood crusted handle still protruded from the dead man's throat. Philip's left forearm appeared particularly ravaged, probably from Sydney Rye's dog, Blue. The sharpshooter's weapons were gone, unless you counted that knife in his neck. Next to Philip, a depression in the dirt—the outline of a medium-sized woman punctuated with pools of blood—kept pulling Robert's attention. Sydney Rye plunged the knife home and then fell over, succumbing to her own wounds. Which, judging by the amount of blood on the ground, were grave. Robert turned slowly, observing every rock, stick, scuff and depression in the dirt. Deep scratches marked where Blue leapt, his nails digging into the dirt as his back legs propelled him into the air. There were other dog prints, too. Not as large as Blue's, but far bigger than the common dogs found in this area, the contested territory along the Syrian-Iraqi border. A tuft of white fur fluttered on a low branch. Bobby approached it slowly, carefully placing his booted feet where no clues lay. The fur was softer than Sydney's mutt's rough, wolf-like coat. Bobby pulled the white fluff off the branch and slipped it into his pocket. Footsteps approached, soft thuds cushioned by pine needles. "Stay back." The intensity of Robert's emotions roughened his voice into a dangerous growl. "That's our man there. Gotta pack him up, get him out of here. Animals are already getting to him," Conner said. Another sharpshooter who'd worked with Philip for years, Conner's bald head and scarred face made him look dangerous. And he was. Had Conner known that Philip took money to try to kill Sydney Rye? "I need more time." Conner disappeared, silent and patient. Robert crouched down and looked at the dirt. Goats. Goats had come through here after the fight. Sydney Rye didn't get up and walk away. Someone carried her, and they managed not to leave a trail of blood. The bald tread of a homemade boot wound through the forest, the goat hooves obscuring all but the smallest trace. Either a small man or tall woman, traveling with a dog and a herd of goats, had carried Sydney Rye away. Why? Herders passed through here on their way from one village to another. The person must be under Daesh protection…or desperate. Why take a bleeding woman? That injured, she'd be useless, the amount of work to patch her up hardly worth the price. Unless, of course, this herder knew who Sydney Rye was. And Robert Maxim would pay any price to get her back. P.S. The dog does not die. **Beware: If you can’t handle a few f-bombs, you can’t handle this series.**

No sooner does freshly minted Reverend Beau Dillard answer his calling to Resurrection House than he gets wind of his immediate predecessor having been found dead, wedged amongst some pilings in the Minatree River Basin. Understandably unnerved by this too-close-to-home revelation, Beau is nonetheless deftly neutralized by the fervid attentiveness of his direct boss, Kathy Symes Cantrell, Mother Superior of this Diocesan Hospice for Troubled Young Ladies. In due course, however, her unshakable faith in the end justifying whatever means, irrespective of the corruption required to get there, convinces him she is either the most brilliant person he has ever encountered or plainly certifiable. Were it not for the aid and comfort given him his his mentor, the powerful diocesan cardinal Rector, as well as knowing that he is adhering faithfully to his revered Bishop's mandate, Beau might have been spared. But no, not until the sun is about to set does he at last catch on, too late, that he and these two men of the cloth, in the truest sense churchly role models both, are not, and indeed may never have keen on the same page. And so, he holds fast to the standards inculcated in him at Benedictus, to the point of no return. Nonetheless, at journey's end, he knows what he must do, and does it.

And Jesus answered and said unto them, take heed that no man deceive you. (Matthew 24:4) Are Christians in today's churches being deceived? If we were, how would we know? We often accept doctrines of today's popular teachers at face value, without ever comparing their claims against the principles of Scripture. Taking for granted that everything we are hearing taught is truthful and sound doctrine, is to be very naïve. Jesus warns us in Matthew 7:15, "Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves." We live in an age of rapid change and much deception. If the teaching of the church is going to remain sound, the responsibility rests with us. "Wolves in Sheep's Clothing" is a study guide, a reference source, and a thought-provoking look at many of the teachings prevalent in today's Christian church. The author exposes many of today's false teachings, often with a bold stance. The false teachers propagate their lies with boldness, therefore at times it is necessary to stand against them with boldness. After studying this work, the reader will be empowered to sort through the misleading and deceptive doctrines of today, and avoid the common traps set by most false teachers. Hopefully by the end of the study the reader will have learned practical ways to determine for himself whether a teaching is truthful or in error. At the very least this study will provoke the reader to deep spiritual thought, and at the most, it will set people free from the bonds of false teaching. This study will benefit the fresh new believer and the seminary student, as well as the seasoned Bible teacher. This work is a must read for pastors, teachers, Bible study leaders, and anyone who thirsts after truth.
