2022 Carol Award Winner! 2022 Christy Award Finalist! From the Wall Street Journal, Amazon, and USA Today bestselling authors of the Tier One series and W.E.B. Griffin's Rogue Asset comes a unique military thriller with a supernatural twist.
When dark forces rise, are faith and firepower enough? On the eve of his medical retirement, Navy SEAL Jedidiah Johnson receives a frantic call from his estranged childhood best friend David Yarnell. David's daughter has been kidnapped off the streets of Nashville in broad daylight. The police have no suspects and no leads. The only clue: the body of a dead priest left behind at the scene. With the clock ticking, David is growing desperate, as is his wife, Rachel . . . Jed's first love.
Despite his painful history with David and Rachel, Jed agrees to help. But he's spent his career as a door-kicking Navy SEAL, not an investigator. His presence immediately draws unwanted attention, creates friction with the local police, and triggers a mysterious attempt on his life. Just when he thinks things can't get worse, it starts to happen again--the voices in his head, the nightmares, the visions. Dark memories and strange abilities, things he believed he'd left behind when he fled Nashville for the Navy at eighteen, begin to resurface.
Jed realizes that to save the missing girl, he must take a leap of faith and embrace the gifts he's denied for all these years. To foil this dark intercept, he'll need more than just his years as a SEAL operator, because he has no choice now but to take up arms and join the battle in the unseen spiritual warfare raging all around him. And there is far more at stake than just a missing girl: the world is not the place he thought it was--and he is not alone.
Follow the military heroes of The Shepherds series as they bring the power of light into the dark mystery of Sara Beth's abduction.
5 stars, Epic story of good vs evil
DARK INTERCEPT
by Brian Andrews and Jeffrey Wilson
Published by: Tyndale House Publishing
This is the kick-off novel for The Shepherds Series. The story is about a Navy Seal named Jedidiah Johnson who is rotating out of the Navy. He has an uncanny sense of self-preservation that usually worked pretty well to protect him and his Seal Team.
Jed is approached by his ex-best friend to help find the friend's teenaged daughter, who has been kidnapped. Due to his shared history with his ex-friend, he doesn't want to take the job but knows that he has to for the girl's sake.
Highly recommend it, this is an epic story of good vs evil, complete with high-action scenes without the non-stop offensive expletives that are so common in today's writing styles.
