A powerful blend of faith and suspense, this gripping short novel follows Grayson Getter, a devoted widowed father who once shared an unbreakable bond with his daughter, Lonette. But as she enters her teenage years, that closeness begins to unravel, replaced by distance, defiance, and a growing rejection of the values he worked so hard to instill.

After a heated argument drives Lonette from his home and into the arms of her boyfriend, Grayson is left with a heart full of regret—and a conviction he cannot ignore. Believing God is calling him to step back and trust, he resists the urge to bring her home, even as every instinct as a father tells him otherwise.

What he doesn’t know is that Lonette has uncovered something deeply troubling—and may be in far more danger than he ever imagined. When a Washington, D.C. police officer warns that her safety could be at risk, Grayson faces an impossible choice: remain obedient to God’s leading or intervene to save the daughter he still loves.

Weaving together themes of forgiveness, parenthood, and unwavering faith, this emotionally charged quick read is a reminder that no matter how far we stray, God’s presence is never far behind—often working in ways we cannot yet see.
