THE THIEF'S TOKEN: A Story of the Good Thief
A stolen piece of wood. A secret thirty years in the making. A race against dawn.
As we enter October—a month the Church beautifully dedicates to the Holy Rosary—I am thrilled to share some very special news with you all. I've just released my brand new book, The Thief's Token!
This release is Book 1 of an upcoming 4-part series. Each book in the series will bring one specific set of the holy mysteries to life, and this first book focuses entirely on the Joyful Mysteries.
Here is a sneak peek at the story waiting for you inside:
A stolen piece of wood. A secret thirty years in the making. A race against dawn.
Eleven-year-old Haron knows the dungeon beneath Jerusalem’s fortress is no place for secrets. But in the quiet hours of Holy Thursday, a condemned bandit named Titus reveals an implausible story.
Sitting in iron chains, Titus holds a small, smooth olive-wood pin—a token stolen from a cold feeding box in Bethlehem three decades ago.
As execution day draws near, Titus recounts his unbelievable encounters with a hunted young family: a chaotic census, a desert bribe, and a mother's startling prophecy that promised they would meet again at the cross.
Through the old thief's memories, Haron discovers the miraculous events of the Joyful Mysteries—not as distant history, but as a living truth that transforms a cold prison cell into a place of hope.
With the heavy boots of Roman guards echoing down the stone stairs, Haron is handed the wooden token and sent into the roaring streets. Now, he must decide if he has the courage to follow the thief—and the King—all the way to the hill.
The Thief’s Token is a gripping historical adventure that bridges the Nativity and the Crucifixion, offering young readers and families a powerful, unforgettable window into the heart of the Joyful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary.
