If You Like Ray Keating Books, You’ll Love…
Warrior Monk was the debut novel in the Pastor Stephen Grant series. The title refers to the main character who is an ex-CIA agent that is now working as a Lutheran pastor. He has worked to live a far different life than his role as a CIA assassin, but when there is a shooting at his church he is forced to pick up his old ways. On top of the shooting, there are threats to the Pope’s life which spring him into action. Grant uses his skills learned from the CIA as well as those he’s learned as a pastor to protect the Pope.
Another great book in this series is called The Traitor. He is looking to take some time for prayer and reflection at the start of this book as he heads to a monastery in Europe. His plans change quickly when he stumbles upon an infamous CIA traitor in a small village and he must help to get him into government custody. The events of the book will take Keating from a pro-democracy demonstration in Hong Kong to the CIA’s headquarters in Langley to a monastery in France.
