Winner
Fiction: Religious
2022 Best Book Awards

The Devil has many faces – which one can they trust?

Fresh from battle with the accursed, Gen can’t believe they’ve survived. And although she’s blinded, she can now see better than she ever did before. Luckily, her companions have been upgraded with magical powers of their own. Because it’s clear that their mission is far from over.

When Gen receives her next vision, she and the team must hastily split up – to prevent an assassination by the Devils’ foot soldiers, and to locate the the last piece of an untapped weapon.

But neither is prepared for the trap that’s been set. Nor the bloodbath coursing their way.

And only time will tell who makes it out alive.

Fifty-Three Tuesdays by G.K. Nakata

Finalist
Fiction: Religious
2022 Best Book Awards

Slow-burning, passionate story of star-crossed lovers who could-just maybe-prove that love conquers all. When a high-profile politico discovers love in a hostess bar, he finds the road to romance is paved with some deep and startling secrets. Epic four part adventure condensed into one stand-alone novel.

A rising political star ousted from the mayor's cabinet stumbles into "one of those bars"-the type not mentioned in polite society-and that's when the unthinkable happens.

A beautiful, mysterious bargirl-just as emotionally damaged as he is-turns out to be the one woman who can soothe his ego and mend his heart. She says she's just there to sell fantasies...and anyone with eyes can see that Glenn's buying in-big time. Maya's keeping a lot of secrets, but the biggest one is that she's fallen just as hard.

Everything started changing in her seemingly perfect life after a pastor visiting from China created such an uproar at her church, with messages most members found both mean spirited and judgmentally offensive, that Mark Lau was asked to leave and told never to comeback.

It took traveling all the way to Shanghai, China, with her best friend, Meredith Geiger, for Charmaine to discover the many differences between her church, which was opulent in every sense of the word, and Pastor Lau's church, which was located beneath a dry cleaners, of all places.

The Hidden Saint by Mark Levenson

Finalist
Fiction: Religious
2022 Best Book Awards

The historical horrors of eighteenth-century Eastern Europe are interwoven with fantastic creatures drawn from 3,500 years of Jewish myth and magic. For the first time, THE HIDDEN SAINT conjures up a very human origin story for one of the greatest superheroes of Jewish folklore: Rabbi Adam, famous for battling wizards, witches, and demons.

The story opens on a long-awaited family wedding, which turns to horror as Rabbi Adam's children are abducted by an ancient supernatural evil.

To save them, the rabbi is joined by a golem, a man of clay pained by the burden of living among, but always apart from, humans. He's goaded and mentored by an elderly, wisecracking housekeeper who is secretly one of the thirty-six hidden saints, or Lamed-Vavniks, upon whom the fate of the world depends.
