"A MASTER OF THE SUSPENSE NOVEL." Abilene Reporter-News
"THE SALVATION PEDDLER" is a haunting and compelling story of a world-renowned evangelist and his family, and a brutal murder that plays havoc with their lives.A psychiatric thriller that takes readers on an intense journey of deception, sexual tension, and murder. Evangelist Jason Blake wants to be President of the United States. But is this man of the cloth hiding the bloody truth behind a veil of righteousness? Detective Tony Pinella thinks he is, but will he find the answers in time?
Veronica Blake hated being the wife of an evangelist - but enjoyed the money and power that came with it. She could no longer stand Jason touching her and it was becoming increasingly difficult for her to sleep with him. When they made love, he was not gentle and cared little about her enjoyment. Veronica also recognized that Jason was stressing the virgin birth during all his sermons. He would raise his voice and his eyes would seek out one young woman in the congregation - a seemingly innocent young woman who would create havoc in their lives.

ESCAPE FROM HEAVEN
FINALIST IN THE 2023 NEW MEXICO-ARIZONA BOOK AWARDS IN THE PHILOSOPHY AND RELIGION CATEGORIES
Reader Comments:
“From the intriguing title, I wondered—Who would want to "Escape from Heaven?"
Isn’t that where we all ultimately want to end up? To the beautiful cover depicting a glowing full moon glimmering upon a calm ocean…
I was certain the full moon and the title had special meanings—and they do! And I thoroughly enjoyed reading each chapter.
The thought-provoking vignettes were meaningful and informative. The conversations between two unexpected friends…Moses and Jesus were truly
a match made in heaven, both hoping for a new age of reason—with an absence of bigotry and intolerance.
An interesting editorial feature were the creative conversations and commentaries between
the "Laughing Angels" and the "Righteous Ones" at the end of the discussions between Moses and Jesus.
They added surprising and sometimes comical touches to the stories…
Kudos to Marcus and Gold’s fresh and thoughtful approach to understanding the complexities of the gift of free will--
and how it influences all that we do, both good and evil, all in the name of God and religion!”
“Escape from Heaven is written with wisdom and thought provoking insight to our human condition on earth.
The novel motivates us to live up to our highest potential as humanitarians on a daily basis in every interaction.”
“Daringly Profound!!! Jerry brings the characters to life without prejudice!
The details of conversation between Jesus and Moses makes one wonder if this is really happening.
Jerry and Marion both capture the realism of todays events and past difficulties of religion.
I highly recommend taking the time to read this book. So much thought, creativity and understanding of faith is in this story.
An absolute must read…I'm truly sorry it is Jerry's last.
“Regardless of where you fall on the theism/deism/atheism continuum, there is plenty here to interest and provoke the reader.
It is with sadness that I read Jerry Marcus' last book.”
