Many years ago, an old woman delivered this message to Carl’s mother on a dark, city street. Eight-year-old Carl and his seven brothers and sisters are mystified by this strange story.

Friends—old and new—and loving relatives come to share in the laughter, the dancing, and the singing that echo across the valley.
It was well after midnight when the group of four met inside the darkened storage barn one-half mile north of town. Each arrived quietly knowing that new business was at hand that would require swift justice. No names were ever spoken though the identity of everyone was known but never discussed. A barn lantern was lit and the evening activities discussed. They met not to represent the local law enforcement community but to avenge the guilty and the transgressors as they saw fit to do whether Negro, white man, or woman. Justice will be served this night.
"The freight car doors were opened, and planks were laid that we were forced to walk up and enter the cars.""There were no seats, and each freight car was packed tightly with our people. Mother, Vicki, and I managed to stay together, and we soon found ourselves jammed in tightly, like pigs going to slaughter. Before closing and locking the open doorway, a Union soldier placed a wooden bucket inside and instructed that it be placed in a corner. This bucket was our only latrine for all of us to use. He then gave us a bucket of water and a box of army biscuits that was meant to last for the trip. We beggedhim not to close the door, but soon we found ourselves in near darkness as the train slowly began to move.”

Not that long ago, the evil of adultery was acknowledged by believers and non-believers alike. Everyone knew the high cost of betraying one’s spouse and family. Adulterers would usually lose their marriage, children, job (once the betrayal became public), and virtually everything else they once held dear. And adultery’s innocent victims (like children) would have their lives changed in ways they would spend a lifetime trying to understand.Satan, who is good at what he does, knew that for adultery to in ict the most damage to the individual and the innocents who are almost always destroyed in the process, he had to make the unacceptable acceptable and commonplace. To that end, he had to convince society that those who honor the sanctity of their marriage vows are out of touch and judgmental know-nothings. “Neanderthals” who should never be listened to. America is too “enlightened,” and has progressed too far to go “backwards.”So, like the frog in the pot of boiling water, adultery slowly but surely kills the heart of adulterers….it takes time, but that is always the bottom-line. It is estimated that 70% of marriages include at least one adultery. A perfect tribute to sel sh America. We want what we want when we want it, and we don’t care who we hurt in the process.This is book describes the true cost of adultery. Please pay particular attention to sections on innocent children. We’ve been conditioned to believe that kids from broken homes do just ne. In some cases the “experts” tell us that broken home children are better o if mom and dad are “happily” separated instead of arguing all the time. You’ll be stunned to read the statistics that prove the experts wrong; dead wrong.Speaking truth to the lies of our permissive society is not to condemn, but rather to stop people considering adultery before they cross the line. Put another way, forewarned is forearmed. From that point forward I implore you, even if you’re a victim of another’s sin, to read with an open heart and mind.There is a way to save everyone involved.
