Invisible Defense
By Stephen Pierce ()
Release date: November 18, 2021
In a collision of past and present, truth hides in plain sight. Invisible Defense weaves this notion together in a bizarre love affair turned murder that leads to an even more bizarre legal defense for Justin Alexander — human spontaneous involuntary invisibility. Justin, a self-made man from the streets, risks everything for the woman of his dreams — and at the heart of his nightmare — to prove she is more than the sum of all her lies. Love and forgiveness, however, are not words Alicia Bauer truly understands until, trapped by her own cons, she discovers their real meaning in the past — hers and that of newspaper reporter Clark Solo. Clark, a widower with a teen feeling lost in the shuffle of life, finds invisibility makes more than just attention-grabbing headlines — it hits home.

Acclaimed New York Times bestselling author Tosca Lee brilliantly adapts the life of Judas Iscariot into a dazzling work of fiction—humanizing the man whose very name is synonymous with betrayal. Based on extensive research into the life and times of Judas Iscariot, this triumph of fiction storytelling by the author of Havah: The Story of Eve revisits one of biblical history’s most maligned figures and brings the world he inhabited vividly to life. In Jesus, Judas believes he has found the One—the promised Messiah and future king of the Jews, destined to overthrow Roman rule. Galvanized, he joins Nazarene’s followers, ready to enact the change he has waited for all his life. But soon Judas’s vision of a nation free from Rome is crushed by the inexplicable actions of Nazarene himself, who will not bow to social or religious convention—and seems, in the end, to even turn against his own people.
