Thirteen bodies are found in a Louisville restaurant. When the police can find no suspect or motive, the family of one of the victims seeks the services of the enigmatic and solitary Roy Prescott, known for his ability to find people who don't want to be found. Working outside the law and willing to do what the police can't, Prescott hunts the killer, an elusive adversary who is as smart, as methodical, as deadly as he is. The only way to conduct this pursuit is to goad the killer into believing that he must kill Roy Prescott. It is a contest fought from one end of the country to the other, and both men understand that, when it's over, only one of them will be alive.

From Young King Joash to Job A baby king is hidden in the temple from wicked Queen Athaliah. Jonah, the prophet, takes a wild ride in the belly of a fish. Daniel spends a night with hungry lions, and Satan puts Job to a terrible test. These are some of the amazing stories from the Bible included in Book 6 of the Shoebox Kids Bible Stories series. And, as usual, the "Shoebox" kids—Sammy, Jenny, Willie, DeeDee, Chris, and Maria—are having adventures of their own that show what the Bible means in real life—at home, at school, or on the playground. As Sammy helps a family whose house burns down, DeeDee locks herself and her mom out of their new car, and Christ dives underwater to save Yoyo from drowning, the lessons from the Bible stories become even clearer. And each chapter has questions at the end so families can talk and learn together.

It's the trip of a lifetime! But it gets even better when Zack meets Achmed, the son of their Middle Eastern guide.
