The tranquil coastal village of St. Ives holds a secret. One that soon plunges the entire town into turmoil when a prominent member of the community is found murdered.
With the police investigation underway, all attention soon turns to Jorja Rose, the local art shop owner. The trouble is, the police inspector happens to also be her best friend.
And what he doesn’t know is that Jorja isn’t who she says she is, and that she knows exactly who the killer is and why he is in their town.
Desperate to prove her innocence and right her past wrongs, Jorja confronts her secret past head-on. Only to be further entangled in a deadly plot for revenge that leaves her overwhelmed with moral questions and a deep longing for redemption.
Will her conscience stop her from doing whatever it takes to finally be free from her past?
If you enjoy pulse-pounding contemporary Christian crime fiction with heart-stopping, twisty endings, this first-in-series page-turning Christian thriller will leave you begging for more of Jorja Rose.
Inspired by Deuteronomy 32:35 - “It is mine to avenge; I will repay. In due time their foot will slip; their day of disaster is near and their doom rushes upon them.”
PLEASE NOTE: THIS IS THE FIRST BOOK IN A COMPLETE TRILOGY (three installments). BEST ENJOYED IN SEQUENCE.

Award winning author of faith-filled Christian Suspense Thrillers that won't let you go!™
Urcelia Teixeira, writes gripping Christian mystery, thriller and suspense novels that will keep you on the edge of your seat! Firm in her Christian faith, all her books are free from profanity and unnecessary sexually suggestive scenes.
She made her writing debut in December 2017, kicking off her newly discovered author journey with her fast-paced archaeological adventure thriller novels that readers have described as 'Indiana Jones meets Lara Croft with a twist of Bourne.'
But, five novels in, and nearly eighteen months later, she had a spiritual re-awakening, and she wrote the sixth and final book in her Alex Hunt Adventure Thriller series. She now fondly refers to The Caiaphas Code as her redemption book. Her statement of faith. And although this series has reached multiple Amazon Bestseller lists, she took the bold step of following her true calling and switched to writing what honors her Creator: Christian Mystery and Suspense fiction.
The first book in her newly discovered genre went on to win the 2021 Illumination Awards Silver medal in the Christian Fiction category and the series reached multiple Amazon Bestseller lists!
While this success is a great honor and blessing, all glory goes to God alone who breathed every word through her!
A committed Christian for over twenty years, she now lives by the following mantra:
"I used to be a writer. Now I am a writer with a purpose!"
