Tears of Jesus — Mia Bell

Holy books are instruction manuals, few people read. The Crucifixion was quite near, yet Jesus still preached the message of God to the people of Judea, in hopes of saving their souls.Thou shalt not steal was an age-old message. When slave Abram stole a Bible from the house of Judas Iscariot, he could not have guessed the death and destruction his vengeful action would trigger in the centuries to come, including his own.This was no ordinary Bible. This was a heavenly book; a blessing for the believer, but a damnation for the non. The Master Copy, as Beelzebub would call it two thousand years later.Greed, has always been one of the seven deadly sins, but Hamilton Turner never read any of the manuals to see the sentence it carried. It was the pre-Civil War years in Boston. He was a well known architect with a successful career and a beautiful family. His doom was still years away when he heard the story of the Bible from his friend Angelo, a descendent of a Templar and decided to go after it. But little did he know that Satan was also after it.Patrick Turner was the CEO of Turner Industries. He was just as greedy as his great-great-grandfather. How wise would it be for him to renew Hamilton Turner's abandoned pursuit of the Bible and become partners with a ghoulish force that wanted to rule the world?
