Item Description

Signed Author Copy of "Church Snitch," a novel by Brian Hampton.

Seth Hamilton is a carefree actor, cruise ship singer, openly gay preacher’s son, and self-confessed vagabond.  And he’s perfectly OK with that. One evening, he’s minding his own business at his favorite bar in Virginia, when he meets the Reverend Barrett Staple—the most famous TV minister in the country. Seth is his usual frank self, and he views their brief encounter as just random. But, Barrett sees it as fate. Barrett’s motley staff at his megachurch is an absolute mess.  And, something needs to be done about it.  Seth, with his unapologetic personality, could be the answer he’s been looking for. Barrett offers Seth $300,000 to pose as a new minster at Church, Inc. with one mission…Infiltrate. Spy. Judge. Snitch.  And provide him with a list of the staff members who should STAY … and a list of those who should be FIRED. Even though he disagrees with Barrett’s religious views on homosexuality, and he’s more “spiritual” than religious, Seth accepts the challenge. Lucky for him, he has the moral support of his gadget-loving dad, and an unexpected confidant. Seth has no idea how tough it will be, how ill-prepared he is, or how much the adventure could surprisingly reshape his own life.
