The Roman Empire used the early Christian Church to enslave the world. In this 21st century, the empire’s descendants return to take the church back. Book 1 of the DESTINY’S DAMNED Thriller Trilogy. An investigative reporter lies witness, as he is murdered piece by piece. He catches a glimpse of a headless man dressed in black, as a plate is hammered into his forehead. A mother's captor gazes at her through a cream colored mask, at once revolted and aroused by her stench and bestiality. A teacher watches as a purple-gloved hand holding a boning knife severs his index finger and uses its bloody stub to sign an oath.
