Achan's Disciple

The Story of a Very Focused Liar

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

How far will a person persist in a lie? Is self-interest the only, over-riding issue in life? How pervasive are lies in our ordinary, daily lives? Achan's Disciple grapples with these questions and more as it follows the lives of two men bent on self-destruction, intent on gratifying their greed, and determined to cover it all with lies. Achan is a character in the Bible who lied about his theft and the reader is faced with the knowledge that one or both of them is his disciple. A pastor who is embezzling from his church and a cafe owner who is gambling away his future are on a collision course to ruin their lives. Will these two men resolve the messes they have created? Will they admit to the truth? Will they find redemption? Or will they lie to the bitter end?

Autorenporträt

I began a career in Accounting purely by chance, with a liking for numbers and an opportunity to add them up, and later enjoyed a career in a field that constantly challenged me and satisfied my love of order, from a bookkeeping role with a nonprofit organization, to corporate accounting, and culminating in accounting for nonprofits as a specialty. I eventually taught every aspect of Accounting (except tax) for over twenty-two years at a technical college in Wisconsin. Reading is my passion and this first novel welds the worlds of words and numbers to create a story that mirrors my own experience.
