  PJ Richards       
began his career in writing as an author over thirty years ago. He grew up on a farm, and was raised in a normal religious household. He loves the outdoors, all the seasons, and of course, making children happy. During his youth, he babysat many children, and either made up games for them to play, or made them toys from cardboard, wood, and string.

TWO NEW RELEASE

Picture
HARDCOVER ONLY
Day of the Cross; Trilogy is a combination from three books compiled to make one very nice hardcover book. This is not available on Kindle, but only as a hardcover.
Some people, such as yourself, enjoy the feel, and reading books that should last a life time, and this book has that. I give you Day of the Cross; A Boy who walked with Christ / Day of the Cross II; Preparing for Christ / and Day of the Cross III; Judgement is at hand, but they are still sold individually.
The first book was a dream that I believe God gave me where I was that boy. After writing the first book, I just had to complete the journey with two more. Who would have thought that my fiction would be so close to reality?
Enjoy

Now being a full-fledged FBI agent, I, Kris Jordan, find myself protecting a fifteen-year-old boy who was found floating out in the middle of the ocean, naked, and half dead. I discovered that he was being held on an island that they called Nightmare Island where plenty of more children were being abused. There are a lot of words that you may not like to hear, but they just needed to be said in order to bring it to people’s attention and awareness. Things may seem fine on the surface, and this is all sugarcoated just to bring you the enjoyment of reading. There’s plenty of thrills, and excitement, and my same quirky attitude. If you liked the first book, The Book of Q; Simply Amazing, then you are absolutely going to love this book. Happy Reading
