Retired FBI agent Alexander Christian is enjoying the good life in his Texas beach house. During a chance encounter, he learns of a young Cuban girl who was smuggled into the US and has gone missing. He has a feeling she''s become a victim of human trafficking and offers to look for her.

To locate the missing girl, Christian must delve into the dark underworld of escort services, massage parlors, and seedy bars that are fronts for prostitution. He concocts a cover story and dives into the sex-slave gutter.

After an exhaustive search, low on options, and when it looks like time is running out for the girl, Christian gets a tip from an unlikely source that could lead him to the missing teen. He follows the lead and what he finds will change his life forever.

All the gospels bring us close to the person of Jesus Christ and encourage us to follow him. But Matthew''s Gospel is a powerful summons for disciples of Jesus to become disciple-makers in the nations.

In this lively and accessible commentary, Ben Cooper highlights the missionary purpose that shapes the Gospel from start to finish, while drawing our attention to Matthew''s rich theology. In this Gospel there is treasure new and old, rest for our souls and teaching for a life of service.
