Arrogance and Deceit is comprised of two faith based novels about flawed heroes. Both of these novels were previously published in a simple screenplay style. This book combines the novel, DAVEY'S DECEPTION, which is based upon the earlier work DAVEY, BULLIED TO EXTREMES with the author's best selling and reviewed work, ARROGANCE IN LINCOLN COUNTY, now revised and expanded into a novel format. It became apparent to the author that many people loved his characters and enjoyed his plots, but were not fully enjoying the earlier works because of the script style in which they were written. This is a response to constructive criticism and an attempt to keep all the action of a fast moving movie script, while presenting it in a more mainstream format. DAVEY'S DECEPTION takes the author's own vivid recall of cruel bullying from his own past and attempts to extract some good from the experience by spinning a tale of a young man bullied to the verge of suicide who fights back, but then finds himself tangled in a web of deceit of his own making from which only God can deliver him. It is the author's goal to have the reader shouting for joy by the time this dark journey is ended. In ARROGANCE IN LINCOLN COUNTY, a senior citizen sees his neighbor come home in a drunken rage and assault his wife. He hears her cries and screams, but is helpless to do anything about it. The last straw occurs the next morning when he finds his neighbor's two young children asleep in his barn and too frightened to go home. This senior citizen, now a respectable Christian, had a dark past of his own. He promises the children he will protect them and their mother, but soon finds that fulfilling his promise may cost him his freedom or even his life. In the process of keeping his promise, he must also reach out to former friends who are not so Christian in their beliefs. This is an intricate drama sprinkled with humor that will not disappoint.
