"Do you know what happens to the chess pieces after the game?" he asked, not looking at me."They go back in the box?" I guessed. He nodded and slid the pawn and the king into their slots side-by-side. "The king is powerful, but only on the board. So often, players sacrifice their pawns just to protect the king. But win or lose, they both go back in the same box." I looked up at him, confused. "What are you trying to say?"He looked up at me. "I'm saying that sooner or later, you'll realize which piece you are, and by then, it'll be too late to make a move; you'll be back in the box." He shut the box with a snap and fastened the clasp.

One moment after making a senseless, hasty decision, Jillian's life as she knew it had vanished, replaced by a terrifying, living nightmare. Her twin brother, Private Detective Dakota Hunt and their family have been searching for her ever since. Dakota felt that he was to blame, believing that if he had only been there minutes earlier, he would have prevented her from getting into the mysterious pickup truck. Shameful guilt devoured all sense of self-worth, causing him to exist in a world of sorrow and self-loathing. He felt like half of his soul had been ripped away and tossed into a savage parallel world with a heart-wrenching, fate intended.Dakota believed that until he located Jillian, he didn't deserve to be happy, because he failed to protect her like he always had before that devastatingly fateful day. After years of investigating sex crimes with the Denver Police Department, Dakota decided to begin his own private investigative service, specializing in sex trafficking and abduction cases hoping to finally discover clues in Jillian's case. Dakota soon decided that he needed much more help if he were to have any chance of locating Jillian and bringing down major trafficking organizations. He figured out that owning and operating a trucking company with a dedicated team of retired police and military professionals, would be an exceptional way to search for Jillian and hunt for sex traffickers across the U.S. The team's success gained the attention of the FBI who recruited them to join a special task force to hunt, track and take down major crime syndicates. The team's immediate accomplishments provided Dakota and his family with renewed hope that they would soon discover what happened to Jillian.

The Book of Acts is Luke's continuation his account of the good news, showing the ministry of the Christ through the Holy Spirit working in partnership with the Twelve, Paul, and other disciples, to take the good news throughout the Greco-Roman world, by forming local New Testament churches from communities of believers. Volume 1, Acts 1-14, explains the history of the New Testament church from its beginning at the AD 33 Pentecost, to the end of Paul's first missionary journey, ca. AD 49. A reasonable chronology of events is followed, showing the slow but steady progress of the gospel to the Jews, Samaritans and gentile proselytes, God-fearers among the gentiles, and pagan gentiles. Numerous excursus and four appendices on pertinent subjects complete the exposition. The exposition is based on my translation of the text. The exposition is thorough, examining every aspect of the text, and does not hesitate to answer questions raised by Luke's historical narrative. The theology is conservative, Reformed, and Dispensational, as required by the inspired text and the historical-grammatical (Literal) hermeneutic.
