MEET DI MELANIE WATTON IN THIS PAGE-TURNING NEW MYSTERY WHICH WILL KEEP YOU HOOKED. When the body of a young woman, Jenni Grantham, is found abandoned, DI Melanie Watton and her team are called to investigate.

Autorenporträt
I desired to be an author at a very young age, but abandoned this pursuit after high-school; that dream was delayed until much later. Educated at the University of Texas, Austin, I finished a study in the art/transmedia department, then worked as as an editor for a video studio after graduation. Later, I worked in a grass-roots public relations capacity for a lobbying group. Reflecting the real condition of my life, and much later, inside the State Hospital, a friend used his Seminary alma mater, to honorarily ordain me, when I inspired him with my conviction, emplaced in me after I was born again in 2008. I think the Lord prepared me for the course I am now directed along, but at the time, it didn't make sense. Only when I surrendered to the Lord, did things begin to come into focus. And the product of this process of my redemption I share here. Across the course of two decades now, I have been dealing with the stigma of mental illness, resisting the State's claim on my mind, body and person. My novel encompasses much more than personal struggle, the Lord has gifted me with prophecy. I resist the diagnosis of mental illness, that I have a disease, Schizophrenia, for I have experienced true spiritual healing when in utter desperation I called out to the Father--He heard my cry. On the outside, my life resembled normalcy, except that I was in a downward spiral spiritually; inside, I was battling with horrendous hate through the affliction of demonic attacks. This all began when I tried to affect my own independence from my domineering father, desiring to alter the course of my life from the hatred and anger that he sowed. Myself and another patient, Vince S. uncovered a spiritual war between the powers of good and evil. which I share in the book, The Fulfillment of Prophecy at the End of the Age: Revelation 13:18 and the Mark of the Beast. The first precedent of obeying the Lord's will in me came in 2009, when I defied my father's authority and control intending to expose his purposes--which I will detail. While I was hospitalized for that altercation, we (another patient and myself) determined the name of the Beast through the prophesied method prescribed in Revelation 13:18, whereby we relate the name of the Beast according to the summation of the name to 666; the well-known historical event, predicating the return of the Messiah, is now unfolding. I must distinguish between the hateful, violent reactionary attacks identified as mass shootings that have followed the Columbine attack two decades ago now; I discern between the hateful blood lust of these perpetrators; I distinguish between the hate and violence of these men, particularly the most recent attack on our capitol, contrasting with what we must uphold, the imperative guarantee of the 2nd amendment, whereby we have the right to bear arms, a Constitutional protection prescribed by our forefathers in order that the place of God in the United States is protected, protected from the encroaching State, secular atheism, godlessness, lawlessness, and bondage through legalism that I relate in these pages. The Beast seeks to divide us like so, in concert with the hate emanating globally for the United States and Israel, just like the persecution I was subject to as a Jew, by my father. Violence and hatred dictate his affairs. We must resist as the Beast's Mark emerges, before we are paralyzed and bound helpless against this affair, a biblical event foretold millennia ago.
