This was an amazing read. It gripped my attention from the first page and I could not put it down. I finished this book in 6 hours of straight reading and it was such an entertaining, interesting very original and extremely well written story. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a heart racing page turning adventure. ( )

"The first time Jude Allman died he was 8 years old". Isn't that a great opening line? From the intrigue generated by this statement the story continues, as the reader learns bits and pieces about Jude's bizarre brushes with death--three so far--and also about his current life as a paranoid janitor in hiding. Jude has tried to escape the media and the curious by changing his name to Ron and taking a low profile position as a school janitor. But a mysterious visitor shows up at his doorstep one day, right around the time that some bizarre things start to happen to him. He starts to have wierd visions, and he starts to break out of his paranioa. But even more troubling is that several children in the area have disappeared--and likely been murdered--and Jude's visions may be able to lead him to the killer.
T.L. Hines has crafted a real pageturner, full of plot twists that had me fooled as to who the real killer was going to be. He reminds me of Ted Dekker for his ability to combine heart racing suspense with religious themes. I look forward to reading more from him in the future. ( )

A story about a man that has died three times and always comes back. Due to no privacy he hides away from the public until children are murdered in his hideaway area and he knows how to find the children, but it will bring him publicity again. Beautifully written. ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0764202049, Hardcover)

Jude Allman has died and come back to life three times, becoming a celebrity against his own wishes. When the world crushes in around this unlikely miracle man, this modern-day Lazarus, he escapes into the vastness of Montana. He changes his name and withdraws from the public eye, trying to forget all that came before. But the past, like Jude, won't stay buried. A prowling evil circles his adopted hometown of Red Lodge, Montana. Children are disappearing, and Jude may have the key to solving the crimes--hidden inside the mysteries of his own deaths. His days of hiding are over, and now he must face the questions that have haunted him for years. What if his resurrections aren't just accidents? What if there's a reason behind it all? What if he's been brought back just for this moment?
