About The Book
In the small town of Edenvale, where ancient feuds run as deep as the soil itself, a murder trial is about to shake the foundations of both law and faith.
State v. Adams isn't just another criminal proceeding, it's a modern retelling of humanity's first murder. When Cain Adams stands accused of killing his brother Abel over disputed farmland, the case appears straightforward. But nothing in Edenvale is ever simple.
As brilliant defense attorney Sarah Goldstein digs deeper, she uncovers a century-old covenant broken during a devastating drought, a shadowy Shepherd's Guild manipulating religious visions for profit, and a pattern of violence that has haunted the north fields for generations. The prosecution has physical evidence and a three-hundred-yard trail of blood through a wheat field. The defense has only questions: Can divine rejection justify human violence? What drives one brother to turn against another? And can ancient wrongs be set right in a modern court of law?
With a town divided between farmers and shepherds, a widow seeking justice, and a defendant haunted by visions of the brother he's accused of killing, "The Trial of Cain" weaves biblical drama into a compelling legal thriller that will keep readers guessing until the final verdictAbout The Instructor,
Bishop Andy C. Lewter, D. Min
Andy C. Lewter brings a unique perspective to this gripping narrative, combining fifty years of ministry with an enduring passion for jurisprudence. A 1976 graduate of Oberlin College who went on to Harvard Divinity School (Class of 1979), Andy Lewter originally intended to pursue both legal and theological degrees. While ultimately dedicating his life to ministry rather than law, he never lost his fascination with the intersection of divine and human justice.
In this debut legal thriller, Andy Lewter masterfully combines biblical scholarship with courtroom drama, creating a story that both entertains and challenges readers to reconsider ancient texts in a modern light. By setting humanity's first murder trial in a contemporary courthouse, they invite readers to examine timeless questions of justice, mercy, and the price of betrayal.
Perfect for fans of John Grisham and readers seeking fresh perspectives on classic biblical narratives, "The Trial of Cain" reminds us that some stories—and some truths—are eternal.
