A Thriller Addressing Faith-Based Issues

When a liberal Supreme Court justice dies, the sitting president sees an opportunity to leave his mark on future generations. His nominee is conservative. The senate is not. Of course, there will be a fight. In Tennesse, a couple of lawyers stumble upon a case with ties to the goings-on in Washington. When these two separate situations converge, fur flies. In Jerome Teel's second novel, you'll find all the makings of a great thriller. You'll also find growth as a writer from his first effort, The Election, to this one. Fans of such household names as Tom Clancy and John Grisham are strongly encouraged to pick up a copy of this work and Jerome's debut novel, The Election. I can assure you there will be no disappointment. I look forward to the next in what I hope with become a large bibliography of works by this rising author.

Another Thriller From Jerome Teel

I thought he couldn't write a better book than The Election, but The Divine Appointment is awesome. A political thriller with complex relationships, exciting twists, and acts of faith. I can't wait for the next one from Jerome Teel.

Christian Fiction finally hits with a political thriller

I have felt that Christian Fiction's past efforts in the political thriller genre have been underwhelming. That has changed, however, with Jerome Teel's "The Election" and now "The Divine Appointment". The characters are cerdible and the story fast paced. Murder and the Supreme Court...this one has it all!

The Divine Appointment

I loved The Election, but The Divine Appointment is even better IMHO. Once I started the book, I could not put it down. I love to read suspenseful fiction, and there is none more suspenseful than the tale woven in The Divine Appointment. How refreshing to see someone in a high political office take a moral stand on such a critical issue regardless of the cost!

RIVETING FAITH-BASED THRILLER

This fast-paced legal thriller offers a riveting account of how Christians involved in politics can impact the world. When Supreme Court Justice Martha Robinson dies of pancreatic cancer, conservative President Wallace is presented with an opportunity to impact the future of the highest law in the land. He believes God has put him in his leadership position for this Divine Appointment. Yet not everyone is pleased with his choice, and some will do anything to stop him - including murder. The plot unfolds in three cities: a suburb of Nashville, Washington DC, and New York City. As the pieces begin to fit together, the layers of suspense will keep readers riveted, wishing for more. --Christian Women Online Book Buzz
