A fast-paced and action-packed ride through upstate New York for fans of CHRIS RYAN and STEPHEN LEATHER. When Nicolas ‘Po’ Villere runs into Elspeth Fuchs, an old flame, he’s surprised to find who’s by her side. It’s her son, Jacob, and he’s a dead ringer for when Po was a child. His age lines up with when Po last saw Elspeth, before she left him for Caleb Moorcock and a life in a secluded community. Elspeth and Jacob are now running for their lives from the abusive Caleb. Po and his partner, Private Investigator Tess Grey, offer shelter. But before Po can dive into the boy’s parentage, Caleb snatches the absconded pair and drags them back to their fortified commune. Has Po dodged a bullet? Maybe it’s best for them all if he never learns whether he’s Jacob’s father. Who’s he kidding? Po resolves to rescue Elspeth and discover the truth about Jacob no matter what . . .

Apostle Dr. Kofi Adonteng Boateng is the founder and general over seer of Divine Word International Ministries (DWI) – a charismatic and non-denominational entity. Divine Prayer Line (DPL) forms an integral part of the ministry. It started as a small group and has since had an unprecedented global reach. He is famously known for harnessing technology –domestic and international telephone lines to spread the gospel and win souls for the kingdom of God. Each session of the daily worship records between 1000- 40,000 members dialing and logging on via phone and internet radio respectively to pray and be blessed by God. He is known to many as the ‘Anointed’ prophet with the special gift of healing ,breaking , destroying of yokes; and restoring life’s that have been condemned and declared hopeless. His crusade, revivals and conventions have gained unparalleled appeal and success. As an Apostle of Christ responsible for initiating a belief system and blessed with an astute personality which is reflected in his vision and work he is also characterized by the buzz words like Amenooo – a catch phrase used by members in the ministry. He has coordinated social and philanthropic work as well as set up a viable welfare system for the members of the ministry. Clearly with such a repertoire of blessings, it is not surprising that Apostle’s work will be a blessing to people with issues; social or personal; spiritual or physical. However, the pertinent ones like Immigration, Abandonment, Child Truancy, Student Failure, Divorce, Sickness, and Bareness have been relatively explored in the book. It is as a result of such issues especially for the Africa in the Diaspora. I feel strongly that the book- ‘Move on God Got You Covered’ should be birthed. A never before seen ad use of phraseology with anointing scripture quotations from the bible is enough to encourage teach and uplift you from any form of situation – good or bad. The scenarios, story and folklore/ inspirational hymns applied in to the book are relevant and spiritual. It is my wish that after reading this book you will have a leap of faith patience and redemption as you experience the finger of God upon your life. And your perspective on life will certainly be changed in Jesus name.
