During an intimate dinner party, a cat burglar breaks into the home of A-list actor Marcus Dowling. When his wife walks in on the thief, the situation quickly teeters out of control, leaving an empty safe and a lifeless body.

The same night, a woman and her infant child are ruthlessly gunned down in an abandoned garage. The killer hasn't left a shred of evidence, except for a foreboding and cryptic message: WCF, the letters written in blood-red letters.

With two elusive criminals on the loose, Detective Lindsay Boxer calls on the Women's Murder Club to help her stop them before they continue their spree. But before they can break either case, the Lipstick Killer changes his act and demands a ransom--not for a single victim, but for all of San Francisco. Lindsay puts her own life on the line--but will it be enough to save the city from this deranged killer?

“Have you been tormented by the thought of dying? Do you know the anguish of thinking that you or a loved one might suffer in hell forever? You are not alone. As I read Hope Beyond Hell, I cried for joy. It assures us of a Love that never gives up on us no matter how miserably we fail.”
Charles Slagle - Author, Evangelist

“I love Hope Beyond Hell; it changed my life. After 60 years of being afraid of God, I was finally introduced to the true God of infinite love, who is bound neither by time nor death; the Savior of the whole world.”
Dr. Terry Schwartz Prof., Wheaton College

“Not fancy theories, but numerous Scriptures and quotes from Bible scholars of many generations. Everyone needs to read and study this book.”
Richard W. Rundell, Ph.D.

"One of the best books ever written showing from Scripture that God's judgments are remedial.”
Dr. Stephen Jones, M.Div., D.D., Author, speaker

“As a hospice chaplain for 14 years, I counseled hundreds of dying patients. In my experience, Christians believing in eternal punishment, especially in literal fire, were much more fearful of death than others. How can this be since Christ came to free us from the fear of death (Heb. 2:15)? Hope Beyond Hell gives a Biblical basis for total peace in the face of death.”
Rev. Boyd Purcell, M.A., M.Div., Ph.D. Author, speaker

"The magnificent love and wisdom of God has not been written about with such clarity since the days of the patriarchs. I have waited 25 years for it."
Michael Wm. Gross, D.D., Th.D., Ph.D.

"Will inspire love, peace, joy, and hope – all the fruit of the Spirit – in your own heart."
Thomas Talbott, Professor Emeritus, Willamette University

Bob Evely, M.Div., Asbury Theological Seminary

"Answers the questions we have been afraid to ask about God's unfailing love and inexhaustible patience."
Pastor Ivan A. Rogers, Former Bible College President

"One of the most balanced studies available on the remedial judgments of God and the great truth of the restoration of all things in Christ. A logical, common sense way the average layman can understand. This is a book about the love of God."
Rev. Terry Miller, M. Phil, Former Pres., Bethesda Mennonite Ins. of the Bible

"A bold and impassioned plea for Christians of every stripe to consider the grand proposition that God's goodness, grace and love reaches farther than most of us have ever dared to imagine. Gerry‘s comprehensive research of the biblical record and extra-biblical sources is powerfully, even overwhelmingly compelling. All who read this book with a spiritual mind and listen with spiritual ears will receive a deepened revelation of Christ in God."
Dr. Bruce A. Gerlach, Professor, College of the Ozarks

"Layer by layer, concept by concept, this book will loose the bonds of insanity that has plagued the Church for centuries."
Grady Brown, M.Th, D.Litt.
Director and founder of Dayspring Bible Ministries

Dr. Marian Paul Kampik, Silesian University, Poland

"Excellent and well researched. I have no doubt that the Holy Spirit is using Gerry at this very important time in Church history."
Rev. Rod Walton CJ: Anglican Ind Communion,
Founder of Bereavement Rescue, U K

"For decades I have questioned the need for and the justice of eternal punishment in light of God being love. This is a well-researched book, providing fresh insights into the teachings of the Church Fathers, and difficult texts like Mat. 25 and Luke 16. Even if one does not agree with his conclusion, one does feel reassured about the extent of God's love in Christ."

"From the first paragraph, you are hooked . . . characters are strong, realistic, and story line drags you right into the pages. Thrills, chills, a little romance, and great attention to detail. Could not put my Kindle down - stayed up til 3 am reading so I could find out what happens to everyone!"

"Judgment Tramp was a fun read right from the beginning. Suspenseful with touches of humor....Unlike most thrillers I read where the male protagonist is self-assured and the center of the book, the author brings Eb's uncertainties right into the open making him likable and someone the reader can relate to, and surrounds him with strong female characters- both friends and foes."

Ex-Army helicopter pilot Eb McLean is struggling to deal with his scars and return to civilian life with his beautiful and headstrong girlfriend, Sarah, but an explosion, and a murder throw him back into another kind of war. Now Maggie's car is burning in front of their restaurant and FBI agent Nick Kavadas wants to nail Eb for the crime. Eb begins to realize that Maggie's past just might be catching up to her. Eb is in a race against time, and he's got big trouble. He must decide who he can trust and fast: ATF Special Agent Danielle Ricci, who may have a secret of her own? Or Is she really just setting him up? The deadly, but sexy, Imme Amoud? Or could his involvement with her be a fatal attraction?

With each twist and turn, the game becomes more dangerous. Someone will have to pay for the crime, and then it will be time for the. Judgment Tramp...

"And I felt the ground move under my feet, and I thought it was the Judgment Tramp of The Almighty, finally come to visit those who had started this terrible war...." From the diary of a Union soldier with the 4th Michigan Regiment

Richard North Patterson frequently rejects the label "legal thriller" for his novels, and The Final Judgement works hard to transcend this limiting category. A cleverly assembled murder mystery told with rich prose ("Moonlight refracted on the still, obsidian waters of the lake and traced the pines and birches and elms surrounding it. The only sound Brett heard was the rise and fall of James's breathing.") and filled with a cast of quirky small-town New Englanders, the novel ultimately succeeds through Patterson's talents as a writer, not just as a plotter.

As in many of Patterson's best novels, The Final Judgement draws on flashback sequences to ground the story and establish key characters. Forty-five-year-old Caroline Masters, a minor figure in Degree of Guilt and Eyes of a Child is the narrative center, and much of the suspense in the novel derives from the slow unwrapping of her past--the death of her mother and estrangement from her father. In the opening of the novel, Caroline is waiting for a message from the White House appointing her to the U.S. Court of Appeals, when, instead, her long-distant father gives her a call. Her niece has just been named the primary suspect in the murder of her boyfriend. The college-age Brett Allen was found naked, passed out from drugs and alcohol, with a knife in her hand, and covered in her boyfriend's blood. The family wants Caroline to return to New Hampshire to defend the girl.

The perils that face Caroline multiply quickly. By taking the case, Caroline clearly jeopardizes her chances for the Court of Appeals appointment. And by returning home, she must inevitably face the accumulated memories and resentments of the New Hampshire crowd, including Caroline's high-school boyfriend who is the prosecuting attorney. But her niece's life is at stake. Ultimately, The Final Judgement is a tale of the deep and twisted history of a New England family, but it is told in a captivating style that is--despite Patterson's reservations about the rubric--"thrilling." --Patrick O'Kelley

A man's body is found decapitated, wrapped in plastic, and stuffed in the trunk of a Fleetwood Cadillac parked outside a federal courthouse. The car's owner is a sweet-natured con man who's on trial for mail fraud - but innocent of murder. Kansas City defence attorney Lou Mason has no idea how a corpse ended up in his client's car. But when the victim is identified as a criminal defendant in a sexually charged lawsuit, Mason is forced to team up with a woman from his past - a brilliant FBI agent who may be playing head games of her own.

U.S. Marshal Jake Taylor has seen plenty of action during his years in law enforcement. But he'd rather go back to Iraq than face his next assignment: protection detail for federal judge Liz Michaels. His feelings toward Liz haven't warmed in the five years since she lost her husband--and Jake's best friend--to possible suicide. How can Jake be expected to care for the coldhearted workaholic who drove his friend to despair?

As the danger mounts and Jake gets to know Liz better, his feelings slowly start to change. When it becomes clear that an unknown enemy may want her dead, the stakes are raised. Because now both her life--and his heart--are in mortal danger.

Full of the suspense and romance Irene Hannon's fans have come to love, Fatal Judgment is a thrilling story that will keep readers turning the pages late into the night.
