THE SANCTUARY is the gripping story of vigilante priest, Danny Hansen, who is now serving a fifty year prison term in California for the murder of two abusive men. Filled with remorse, Danny is determined to live out his days by a code of non-violence and maneuvers deftly within a ruthless prison system.

But when Renee Gilmore, the woman he loves, receives a box containing a bloody finger and draconian demands from a mysterious enemy on the outside, Danny must find a way to escape.

They are both drawn into a terrifying game of life and death. If Renee fails, the priest will die; if Danny fails, Renee will die. And the body count will not stop at two.

THE SANCTUARY is Ted Dekker at his best, a powerful thriller that relentlessly plumbs the depths of punishment and rehabilitation, both in a flawed corrections system and in the human heart.

If you could sum up The Sanctuary in three words, what would they be?

Transcending Spirit Love

What other book might you compare The Sanctuary to and why?

You may have met the hero before quiet and strong. And you may have met the heroine before annoyingly dysfunctional and blind with love. However the combination with transcending mortal failings was new for me.

What does Henry Leyva and Rebecca Soler bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Great match of voices to characters

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

It would have to be the final prison yard scene, when Danny transcends all the ties that bond him.

What does go on behind prison walls?

Loved it! Book 2 in the Danny Hansen series was amazing the story of Danny and Renae continues with twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat! What a great read!

We all have a bit of "monster" in us, it comes in all shapes and sizes and wears all kinds of costumes. Fear, envy, deceit, pride, shame, murder, theft, adultery, etc. Gods Son, Jesus Christ, is the only way to being saved from those "monsters". He knows our sins and loves us regardless of them. God's grace, Christ's blood, is the way to salvation and therefore everlasting life in heaven.

WOW! Edge of your seat "page turner"!

Ted Dekker does it again!! I love his style! This book was so good! It was hard to pull away from it to get things done. I’m so happy I purchased it. The first book in the series was good also! Buy it you will listen again and again!

Awesome book

Ted Dekker is normally one of my favorite authors but his character development of the main girl made her unlikable and annoying which unfortuently made the book difficult to get through in multiple sections.

It was not one of his best works.

The story was riveting and never would have thought that Keith was the one Renee called sicko.
