“Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward is great in heaven, for so they persecuted the prophets who were before you." (Matt 5:11-12)
My second novel will be out (hopefully) on August 31st. Part of the back 'blurb' is below.
Would you deny the truth for money? Would you say you believed something you didn’t, in order to keep your job?
In his second adventure, John Harris finds himself coming across men
who lose their livelihoods and reputations, because they won’t deny
their beliefs and bend the knee to the state’s diktats. Each man has
become a persona non grata, an exile in his own country, a fugitive in
his home land. Impressed by their simple courage and curious mix of
humility and dignity, Harris finds his own resolve challenged as his
employer, the University of East Lothian, compels him to take a
psychological test. When his friend is institutionalised for having
‘unacceptable beliefs’, Harris is forced to consider:
Can he
rescue his friend? And even if he does, how can he hide him from an
all-watching, ever-regulating, ever-controlling state?
