BEYOND JUSTICE
THE DESCENT INTO HELL IS NOT ALWAYS VERTICAL…
Sam Hudson, a reputable San Diego attorney, learns this when the authorities wrongfully convict him of the brutal rape and murder of his wife and daughter, and sends him to death row. There he awaits execution by lethal injection.
If he survives that long.
In prison, Sam fights for his life while his attorney works frantically on his appeal. It is then that he embraces the faith of his departed wife and begins to manifest supernatural abilities. Abilities which help him save lives– his own, those of his unlikely allies–and uncover the true killer’s identity, unlocking the door to his exoneration.
Now a free man, Sam’s newfound faith confronts him with the most insurmountable challenge yet. A challenge beyond vengeance, beyond rage, beyond anything Sam believes himself capable of: to forgive the very man who murdered his family, according to his faith. But this endeavor reveals darker secrets than either Sam or the killer could ever have imagined. Secrets that hurtle them into a fateful collision course.
BEYOND JUSTICE, a tale of loss, redemption, and the power of faith.
“…A riveting legal thriller…. breaking new ground with a vengeance… demonically entertaining and surprisingly inspiring.”
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
“…hits the ground running…handled by a deft hand.”
Adrian Phoenix, BENEATH THE SKIN (Pocket Books)
“This tense, fast-paced story of outrageous injustice, insidious evil, and looming disaster has everything the savvy reader should expect, and more. [Graham] belongs to a new, emerging wave of writers who dare to color outside conventional lines. And he does so with style!”
Glen Scorgie, THE JOURNEY BACK TO EDEN (Zondervan)

Not only did this book surprise me over and over again as well as being a top notch "mystery" book but there was another aspect that I hesitate to mention much detail about as I don't want to ruin it for anyone reading this review. Instead of going into details I'll simply put it this way...MORE-SO then ANY OTHER BOOK I'VE EVER READ, this book caused me to look at many things that I hold important to be looked at it in a much BETTER light. I is my OPINION that anyone that reads this book will be a much better/happier person for doing so. This story and author affected me in such a positive way, (please keep in mind that i was a very happy person prior to reading this book), that my previous happiness seems to pale in comparison to how this story stirred something within me that i thought had simply disappeared as I've aged, for the record I am in my mid-forties. I don't expect everyone to have the same reaction to this book that I had as we each have our backgrounds, strengths & weaknesses which I believe all play a role in how each of us reacts to things, (especially something as varied as someone's OPINIONS), however, if any reader even gets or feels a hint of what I felt after reading this book then they will know exactly what I'm speaking about.
I have not read any of Joshua Graham's other works but intend to do so very soon solely due to how much I enjoyed, BEYOND JUSTICE.
My only concern is that i cannot imagine that any other book will cause a "stir" in me the way BEYOND JUSTICE has, but thats a risk definitely worth taking. After all, regardless of whether his other works are as good as BEYOND JUSTICE, I'll still always have BEYOND JUSTICE as my new measuring stick for all others to try to measure up to. Thank you, Joshua Graham, for authoring such a wonderful, inspirational, work of art that will forever be considered one of, if not THE best book I've ever read.
As Sam faces the inevitable, he is surrounded and cared for by the very people he once shunned. This book takes you through Sam's denial of a God and his conversion as he finds himself in the midst of some inexplicable happenings.
A warning to anyone who finds any books that includes God, conversion, miracles, visions etc, as offensive to your beliefs, please pass on this book. This book is about God. And Faith. And the power of prayers.
It is not a great book, but it is certainly a good book.
Without giving away any spoilers this book initially reads like a murder mystery. The main character, Sam Hudson, is arrested for a murder he didn't commit and the book spends a great deal of time on this subject matter. However, I feel that the book went far beyond just a who did it mystery. This book delves into of course the murder but also the legal justice system, the prison system and a religious theme.
Before choosing to purchase this book please know that religion is a focal point throughout much of the story. However, I feel it is done very tastefully. The author never tries to jam his religious beliefs down the reader's throat. He simply has a religious undertone as part of Sam's journey. The religious aspect did not detract from my reading experience.
Another slight problem with the book was some grammatical errors which may have been a publishing error vs. an author error. I know there were a few examples but one that sticks out in my mind was the use of I when it should have read I'm. Again, not a big deal for me and it didn't take away from my enjoyment of the novel.
In summary, if you are looking for a book that is an easy read, will hold your attention and make you think beyond the scope of the book, by all means spend the $2.99 because you won't be disappointed. Joshua Graham has become a new must have author for me and I can't wait until his next book is available.

Characterisation is good, and the plot kept me riveted until the last page. So pleased that I could read it on Kindle, as I wasn't tempted to cheat and go the last page to see how it finished!
A compulsive read.

Wirklich spannend und herausfordernd ist, dass die Erzählung eine Ebene mit einbezieht, die die meisten Leser als Fantasie abtun werden. Mitten im Buch wird
dem Protagonisten plötzlich Hilfe von unerwarteter Seite zuteil und er beginnt seine Wahrnehmung zu öffnen gegenüber der unsichtbaren Welt. Den meisten Lesern wird es so ergehen, dass Engel der unsichtbaren Welt zugerechnet werden wenn überhaupt die Existenz auch nur in Erwägung gezogen wird.
Joshua Graham fordert mit seinem Buch die Leser heraus, an Engel zu glauben und Gott zu vertrauen...
