"Mark wasn’t some saint or figurehead. He was no one of importance or significance – to others or to God. Neither Abraham or Job – far too scared to do what was asked of him, and nowhere near patient enough to wait out the suffering in hopes of a reward that would likely never come.

Always falling short of what he should be."

Amidst the loss and confusion of recent events, Mark Owens falls into a crisis of faith like never before. It certainly doesn't help that God is silent despite his cries, pushing him ever further onto a path of revenge. Cian Daniels is trying his best to keep this kid as safe as he can whilst meeting Mark halfway, before he can get himself killed.

A direct continuation of 'Mimicry'.
