The Hunt for the Lost Word depicts a treasure hunter’s quest to find Jesus Christ’s lost gospel. Tasked with the daunting quest to locate The Lost Word, treasure hunter Rabe Tafferty believes his mission is a fool’s errand. No lover of religion, but desperate for cash, he agrees to chase Jesus Christ’s hypothetical writings. Little does Rabe realize his double-dealing former best friend, a retired arms dealer bent on revenge, and even the Archbishop of San Francisco will stop at nothing to get their hands on The Lost Word. When Rabe enlists Drew, his beautiful, psychic, soon-to-be ex-wife, hoping they can reconcile during the search, matters come to a head. What Rabe doesn’t know is his greatest enemy’s plans to unlock The Lost Word’s secrets hinge on Drew’s psychic abilities. Over the course of the next hours, Rabe learns shocking mysteries about the original teachings of Jesus, sinister connections linking those who hunt him and revelations that threaten to destroy him, and his wife Drew, forever. 356 pages

Lena’s steadily increasing powers, a radical physical makeover, and a new twist in her relationship with Nick make her wonder if she is the supreme witch. Then the two mighty covens convene, endangering the lives of all in their path. Will Lena survive?
