Marwan Dosha's first wave of jihad may have failed. But he is determined to carry out his plans to destroy the infidels.

And this time he has the perfect pawn . . . pastor John Cain's twelve-year-old daughter.

Driven to the brink of despair by Jessica's disappearance, the Cains know this is more than a personal nightmare. Countless lives may be lost if they fail to solve Dosha's ominous riddle of revenge:

"That which flows from under the Temple will poison the earth. Tens of thousands will die, and the world will finally understand that they can resist us no longer."

"In the tradition of James Clavell's Whirlwind, Ward Tanneberg's Vanished takes us into the heart of the Middle East, makes us breathless over the disappearance of a child, and touches our own spiritual journey. A page turner set in a contemporary world with the faith of the ancient world to sustain us and give us hope."

"Tanneberg has done it again. A compelling novel that not only entertains the reader page after page, but enlightens us to the dangers we all could face. This is destined to be a bestseller!"

Ward Tanneberg is the executive pastor and senior associate teaching leader at Westminster Chapel in Bellevue, Washington. An award-winning writer, he is the author of Without Warning and has been published in a variety of newspapers, magazines, and periodicals across the country.
