The Assignment
By Mark Andrew Olsen


    A tiny remnant of Catholic priests in an underground movement are the only ones who really know the truth about a mysterious man, who has lived for ages and ages.

    A man haunted by his failure to successfully carry out an urgent assignment, he wanders the earth in despair. Now, because the forces of darkness know their days are numbered, they've upped the ante, and are unleashing all their cunning to incite a conflict of epic proportions; one that will ultimately remove the one man left behind, without whose presence all the powers of darkness can no longer be held in check.

     In his first single major inspirational thriller, The Assignment, Mark Andrew Olsen weaves a riveting and unforgettable tale filled with history, loss, heartache and deep and abiding Christian love. His characters walk straight off the pages and will give the reader not only an edge-of-the-seat, thrilling read, but a life-changing experience.

     This one rivals Left Behind, and will give other inspirational thriller authors a definite run for their money. Run, don't walk to your nearest Christian bookstore for The Assignment. I look for it to be a major motion picture, and look forward to reading more by this very talented author.
