Struggle Creek - by Peculiar People (2007)
A unique mystery novel co-written by Christian's authors from around the world.... Coming soon!


Mystery...

Generations ago, a Civil War skirmish was fought on the banks of Struggle Creek. Now, a different battle has come to the small Tennessee town. The source seems to stem from a mysterious metallic dome found hidden deep in the woods.

Meanwhile, a gang of rowdy teenagers barges into town. A single mother and her deaf teenager appear from nowhere and the mother falls deathly ill. The community's peace is shattered by fear.

Secrets...

The once trusting and close-knit community is unraveling. Could one of them be behind the secret in the woods that has already cost one life? Could one of them be a killer?

Faith...

Against the backdrop of fear and mistrust, the local theater plans a drama of light and dance, unlike anything the backwoods town has ever seen. Will this outlandish gesture draw the people of Struggle Creek back to faith and togetherness? Or will their bitterness and fear rob this cozy community of its innocence?


Peculiar People is an international Christian organization that creates unique fiction through group writing projects. Authors from all over the world work together to write one of a kind books that offer clean, Christian entertainment and spread the love of God.

My dearly beloved Shari:

Peace be unto you!

Given the current distress and perplexity which the world is experiencing, inspirationally caused by the forces that be through man and nature, it is important that certain mysteries are brought to light at this time, that the wearied soul may find comfort in understanding the time and season, and his designed course and ordained destiny, as the end of the journey and its glory are upon you: for every journey must have an end. The time is come for you to gradually receive the full knowledge of God's grace, as the last fulfillment is at the door; grace to you: for Peace, the latter rain, whom you seek, and whom the world esteems not, is in your midst, incognito: for as it was at the first, so again it is at the last!

To he that has perception: Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open (expound) the book, and to loose (interpret) the seven seals thereof. Thus you were told to watch: for he comes as a thief. And understand the presence of a thief: for he never comes announced; but is in your midst, yet unawares to anyone but he that he makes his presence known to: incognito. Let he that has an ear hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches (the body of faiths), even unto all men: it is the voice (doctrine: testimony) of the seventh angel (Peace: the last). The peace of the Father, which is accorded the Son, be with you; and the love of the Father, whom you are, ever to be reflected unto your brethren. Shalom! Salaam! Namaste!

Eternally with you!
Your friend,
Nicky
