The Silver: Thirty pieces were only the beginning.

Some relics were never meant to be found. Some betrayals never truly ended.Adrian Kane built a global ministry on truth, faith, and the power of the spoken word. For forty years his voice filled stadiums on six continents. Then, in the middle of an altar call, the feeling that had always told him he was where he belonged simply stopped coming.Days later a stranger walked into his arena carrying an ancient silver chalice — a cup forged, the legend says, from the thirty pieces of silver Judas threw back at the priests. The stranger offers the world a gentle gospel: all the comfort, all the belonging, none of the cost. Millions follow him overnight. Adrian's ministry collapses in seventy-two hours.But a researcher on Adrian's own staff has traced the chalice through history — Carthage in 311, Jerusalem in 1099, the Spanish Inquisition, the Terror of Paris, a planning office in 1939 Berlin, a Park Avenue penthouse in 1972. Wherever the cup appears, a man in power surrenders the truth for peace — and tells himself the cup made him do it.As Adrian is forced to confront what the relic really is, he must also face the one betrayal he has carried in his own pocket for fifteen years — and the estranged son he turned into a sermon.Can truth survive when the world is offered everything it wants? Or will the price of betrayal finally be paid in full?The Silver is a literary supernatural thriller about the counterfeit gospel that keeps the love and removes the cross — and the quiet, costly surrender that is the only thing strong enough to answer it.
