A warning from beyond the grave

A dead friend’s message sets this young adult adventure in motion: a teen receives instructions to leave his remote island town and avoid his church, then discovers that a computer program the friend created has been activated. The search for answers leads into a conspiracy, with trust in question and the protagonist alone in unfamiliar wilderness. A hermit with secrets becomes part of the narrow path toward escape. The setup combines a mystery with danger, a remote setting, and a quest for justice, while the Christian-fiction classification places the story within a faith-oriented adventure context.

When a teen boy receives a written warning from his friend to avoid his church and leave his remote island town immediately, he's terrified--his friend died weeks ago!

He knows danger is up ahead when he realizes that his friend's dead man's switch computer program has been activated. Unsure who to trust, he sets out alone to unravel a dark conspiracy. Soon, the seeker soon becomes the hunted in an unknown wilderness. The only hope for escape is a trigger-happy hermit--a man with his own secrets to hide.

Fiction fans who love a great mystery and the quest for justice will talk about and think about this book long after the last chapter is read.
